Public Employee Salaries
database growing daily!
The Salt Lake Tribune is conducting an ongoing statewide quest for the salaries of public officials at all levels of Utah government, including cities, counties, state government, school districts and other agencies that use taxpayers money.
This database includes pay information for employees of those Utah agencies that have complied with our public-records requests, made under the state's Government Records Management Act. As such, this database is provided "as is," and UtahsRight.com makes no representation, either expressed or implied, that all information is accurate.
Government agencies have provided their data in a variety of formats and levels of detail, but records in the database generally include earnings of officials by name, from the highest paid to part-time and entry-level workers. Pay is listed as annual earnings based on the most recent tax year, unless otherwise noted. In some cases, the data includes job descriptions and department names which may allow for salary comparisons. Only one primary job position per employee is listed, although earnings may come from multiple job positions. Annual figures have been rounded to the nearest dollar.
The largest database of salaries-- for state of Utah employees-- was last obtained and updated July 23, 2009 and reflects actual earnings for calendar year 2008. Other databases are updated at intervals of between three months and a year, depending on the size of the database, cooperation from relevant municipal officials, and other factors. For specific database information, simply select a governmental entity from the "BROWSE BY AGENCY" dropdown menu and scroll to the bottom of the page. Most databases reflect actual employee earnings/wages subject to Medicare taxes for the most recent tax year, as provided by each governmental agency. Exceptions include: Unified Fire Authority--salaries based on the 07-08 fiscal year.
