Ontario Unveils 2024 Public Sector Salary Data
The Ontario government has released salary details for public service and broader public sector employees who earned $100,000 or more in 2024, as mandated by the Public Sector Salary Disclosure Act, 1996. This requires organizations receiving provincial public funding to disclose such salaries by March 31 each year.
The Treasury Board President, Caroline Mulroney, stated that the salary increases resulted from across-the-board adjustments, retroactive payments processed in 2024, and outcomes of collective bargaining agreements. Additionally, nearly half of the list's growth can be attributed to the school board sector, where teachers account for 87% of this increase.
This disclosure aims to provide transparency in public spending and employee compensation across sectors.
