The Municipality of Chatham-Kent has released its annual salary disclosure list.
Under the Public Sector Salary Disclosure Act, public sector organizations such as hospitals, school boards, municipalities, colleges, universities and hydroelectric companies owned by the province (not those owned by municipalities) are required to list employees who earn $100,000 or more annually, municipal officials said in a press release.
In 2018, the number of employees earning $100,000 or more was 250 compared to 228 in 2017.
The 2018 list includes 124 members of the Chatham-Kent Police Service (126 previous year), 62 members of the Chatham-Kent Fire and Emergency Services (43 previous year), 61 non-union employees (58 previous year), two registered nurses (one previous year) and one chief operator (PUC) (zero previous year).
“It should be noted,” said Cathy Hoffman, General Manager, and Corporate Services/Chief Human Resources Officer, “that the Consumer Price Index has not been applied to the reporting process since its inception in 1996, which would otherwise have put the reporting level at $152,154 in 2018. At this level, Chatham-Kent would have 15 names on the list.”
