Salaries of Omaha City employees in the Omaha World Herald (yep mine too)

http://www.omaha.com/article/20110926/NEWS/110929751#salaries-of-omaha-city-employees

Published Monday September 26, 2011

Omaha City Councilman Franklin Thompson calls millions of tax dollars paid out for unused vacation and sick time "robbery."

Under city policy, employees can bank unused sick and vacation time over the course of a career, then cash in the hours when they leave at their higher salary. Over the past five years, the City of Omaha has shelled out more than $23 million in such payments, for an average payment of $25,000.

As part of the review of the payment practice, The World-Herald collected salary information for every city employee. It is available on our data page: http://dataomaha.com/omaha-city-salaries


$178,569,645 Total paid to Omaha employees in 2010

$45,965 Median 2010 earnings, City of Omaha employees

$43,692 Average 2010 earnings, City of Omaha employees
