In real terms, the salaries of the majority of ICT professionals have increased marginally faster than general cost of living increases in Australia. The Australian Bureau of Statistics reported an increase in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) of 2.5% over much the same period.

Chief Information Officers and General Management roles were reported to be the most lucrative positions based on total remuneration packages, where a total package is defined as comprising the value of base salary, bonuses, superannuation and the value of fringe benefits such as motor vehicles.

Other key findings of the 2009 Remuneration Survey included:

    * In relative terms, the incomes of ICT professionals were only just keeping pace with most other technical professional employees who reported increases over a corresponding period in the order of 5%.

    * In the twelve months to February 2009, the Australian Bureau of Statistics reported Australian Average Weekly Earnings increasing by 5.9%.
