The problem here is that there will always be someone willing to take the lower paying job. Therefore employers will never get the message. This is the same problem that safety professionals in all disciplines have faced for years. This is also what sparked the need for organizations such as the ASSE and the CSP certification. In general safety, the CSP has become recognized and sought out. The same thing needs to happen with the CHP. To achieve this will take better "lobby" efforts from the HPS.

Hi Bill,
Good points. In the above comment I only meant to say that if HPs
stopped accepting low paying salaries for jobs that are worth more,
there may be an opportunity to get the employer's attention. I agree
that HPs generally don't have clout, but if the industry as a whole
stopped jumping at every low paid listed job, there could be some
movement in the future.
Regards,
Sandy
