Only two weeks remain to break the record (49% set in the last salary survey) for participation in the AASV Salary Survey, and we have a ways to go! We can do it!! So far, 26% of eligible AASV members have participated, and we’re hoping for even more participation in order to generate more reliable results. If you’re one of the 241 members who have already submitted your information, thank you! For the remaining 659 eligible members, please don’t wait any longer – take a few minutes right now to complete the brief survey (no essay questions!). Your participation is important, even if your work only partially involves swine-related activities, and even if you’re not working as a traditional practitioner.
If you’re an "Active" AASV Member (non-retired veterinarian) in the US or Canada, watch for an email message containing the link to the survey. You may also access the survey by logging into your AASV member account at https://www.aasv.org/members.
The survey requests information about your employment and salary for the 2022 calendar year. It’s much shorter, simpler, and less painful than the income tax returns you just filed!
AASV members are divided into two survey groups, based upon their employment type. The practitioner survey should be completed by those who oversee pig health for a production or genetics company, as well as those engaged in private practice. Members who work for a university, corporation, or government, who are engaged in education, research, technical services, public health, or regulatory work should complete the public/corporate veterinarian survey.
Once the data collection period has ended, the survey results will be pooled and shared with the AASV membership. Responses are confidential and the results are reported in a manner to assure participant anonymity. The more participation, the more valid the results – so do your part and complete the survey today!
