Benefit Cost Comparisons Between State and Local Governments and Private-Sector Employers
Author: Kenneth J. McDonnellPublisher:
ISBN:

Languages : en
Pages : 12
Book Description
This paper examines some of the causes of the differences in total compensation costs between state and local government employers and private-sector employers. As of September of 2007, overall total compensation costs were 51.4 percent higher among state and local government employers ($39.50 per hour worked) than among private-sector employers ($26.09 per hour worked) (calculated from Figure 1). Total compensation costs consist of two major categories: wages and salaries and employee benefits. For both of these categories, state and local government employers' costs were higher than those of private-sector employers: 42.6 percent higher for wages and salaries and 72.8 percent higher for employee benefits (calculated from Figure 1). The differences in compensation costs between public-sector and private-sector employers are driven by the differing mix of job functions, work force composition, and concentrations of workers. The composition of the benefit package is another major factor in explaining the difference in compensation costs. Benefit participation rates are higher for state and local government employees and the costs of providing these benefits are higher.The PDF for the above title, published in the June 2008 issue of EBRI Notes, also contains the fulltext of another June 2008 EBRI Notes article abstracted on SSRN: quot;The Number of Individual Account Retirement Plans Owned by American Families.quot.
Pay Comparability Surveys

Book Description
Substantial variation in the nature and quality of salary administration among state governments has been of major interest to the Federal Government for several decades since it funds many state programs through grants-in-aid. In the Department of Labor, concern about the adequacy of state methods of salary administration in the programs under its jurisdiction led the Employment and Training Administration (ETA) to support a state salary comparability project. The project sought to develop and demonstrate a method, somewhat analogous to the federal procedure, for providing for periodic salary changes that could be applied by state and local governments to establish salaries for their employees comparable to those in private industry for jobs requiring the same level of skills and responsibilities.

Innovations in Federal Statistics

ISBN: 030945428X
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 151
Book Description
Federal government statistics provide critical information to the country and serve a key role in a democracy. For decades, sample surveys with instruments carefully designed for particular data needs have been one of the primary methods for collecting data for federal statistics. However, the costs of conducting such surveys have been increasing while response rates have been declining, and many surveys are not able to fulfill growing demands for more timely information and for more detailed information at state and local levels. Innovations in Federal Statistics examines the opportunities and risks of using government administrative and private sector data sources to foster a paradigm shift in federal statistical programs that would combine diverse data sources in a secure manner to enhance federal statistics. This first publication of a two-part series discusses the challenges faced by the federal statistical system and the foundational elements needed for a new paradigm.
