A brief description of how the institution ensures that its lowest-paid workers (including contractors, if applicable) receive sustainable compensation:
The college evaluates local average salaries for workers in similar positions and tries to offer compensation that meets or exceeds the local averages. These wages are generally considered to be sufficient to allow employees to meet their basic needs. Denison also makes its compensation packages similar to the other colleges in the Ohio Five (Oberlin, Denison, Kenyon, Ohio Wesleyan, & Wooster). Typically, Denison participates in a range of surveys related to compensation for employees and most of these are conducted on a yearly basis.

The most recent year total compensation for the institution’s lowest-paid workers (including contractors, if applicable) was evaluated to ensure that it was sustainable:
2,008
