HR Foundations was founded by a nationally recognized compensation expert (Dr. Jerry M Newman of the University at Buffalo School of Management). The firm has conducted a WNY total compensation survey every year since 1999. Major employers in the Buffalo-Niagara area have come to depend on the survey report as the only consistent and local source for compensation planning data.
