Purchase of the survey report

The Professional Engineer Remuneration Survey Report (“Report”) is published by the Association of Professional Engineers, Scientists and Managers, Australia (“Professional Women” – formerly ‘APESMA’), and is available for purchase by both Professional Women members and the general public (non-members). As a benefit of their Professional Women membership, members are entitled to a discount, but only under the terms and conditions detailed below.

Organisations who wish to utilise the information contained within the Report or online to review employee salaries must purchase the Report at the normal corporate price. Professional Women reserves the right to reject any corporate order placed using a member’s ID to obtain a discount, if deemed to be in breach of these terms and conditions of purchase.

The information contained within the Report is intended only for disclosure to and use by the person and/or organisation* whose name and address has been recorded by Professional Women as the purchaser of the Report (“the Purchaser”). (* only for those orders placed at the standard corporate price).

Members’ only / Participants’ price

Those persons who purchase a copy of the Report using a valid Professional Women membership ID to receive the members’ only discount price (“the discount price”) (or a valid Engineers Australia membership ID to receive the participants’ price), must not distribute the information contained in the Report, nor the username and password assigned for online access, to their employer, colleagues, employees or any other person(s), without consent from Professional Women.

The purchase of the Report by either members or participants at the discount price allows use of the printed report and the username/password for online access by the Purchaser only. Purchasers cannot buy the Report at the discount price on behalf of their employer or any other organisation. Members may only purchase one (1) copy per edition of the Survey Report at the discount price – any subsequent purchases will be charged at the normal corporate rate.

Survey participants

Participants are members of Engineers Australia and/or Professional Women who are invited to complete the survey, and are offered the discount price if they participate in the survey. The discount price is only offered to participants at the time of completing the survey. Orders will only be accepted on the participant’s special order form distributed with the survey questionnaire, if returned with a completed questionnaire, or by the participants’ e-commerce order form for those participants who complete the survey online via the Professional Women website.

Use of the salary calculator

Members  >> Am I a member or a non-member/subscriber?

As a benefit of their Professional Women membership, Professional Women members may access the Professional Engineer Salary Calculator (“salary calculator”) free of charge by logging in using their membership details. However, the online salary calculator contains information that is proprietary and valuable to Professional Women, so accordingly the information is intended only for disclosure to and use by fee-paying, financial Professional Women members.

Professional Women members may only utilise the data contained online for their own personal use (i.e. in determining details for their own salary).

Professional Women members must not:

• distribute the information contained in the online salary calculator to their employer, colleagues, employees or any other person(s) (“others”) without consent from Professional Women
• login to the online survey to source salary details on behalf of others
• share their Professional Women membership login details with others

Non-members/subscribers

Non-members can access the online data by purchasing the Report, and logging in using the details supplied by Professional Women.

The information accessible via the salary calculator contains information that is proprietary and valuable to Professional Women, and is intended only for disclosure to and use by the person and/or organisation* whose name and address has been recorded by Professional Women as the purchaser of the Report. (* only for those orders placed at the standard corporate price).

The Username and Password details provided for access to the online salary calculator are confidential. They are to be used only by the Purchaser and it is a breach of the conditions of sale to distribute these details to any third party without the consent of Professional Women.
