With our unique ecosystems and financial framework, the Orthodox Frum community has long operated outside the typical salary brackets, making it difficult for those in the workforce to rely on general benchmarks available.
With the goal to bring clarity to a topic that rarely makes the pay grade, Mispar launched the first-ever salary benchmark survey in the Jewish community to demystify compensation for employers and employees.
Responses were collected from both employers and employees across various industries, with employers submitting salary data for multiple team members and employees sharing their own compensation details. The result is a comprehensive, insider look at what people in different locations, fields and demographics are earning.
Follow along to explore some of the insights we’ve gleaned. We share snippets of salary averages, industry-specific trends and notable patterns among communities.

Though each demographic pool has its own distinctions, we share a snippet of the most popular positions reflected in the data set as a whole.
