In an earlier story. We had made a comment that $82,000 could pay for two Park City teachers. A reader commented that it was more like one teacher, due to benefits. We weren’t really sure what Park City School District personnel made, so we checked out Utah’s Right to Know<\/a> website, which shows government employee salaries.<\/p>\n

The table below lists gross compensation (salary plus benefits) for all Park City School District personnel in 2015.<\/p>\n

We made the decision not to list employee names and instead just provide their position. Each line in the table below represents an employee. Their gross compensation is salary plus benefits. Generally it seems\u00a0that 30%-35% of the gross compensation are benefits. So, if you see gross\u00a0compensation of $100,000 it is likely that their salary is about $67,000 and benefits are about $33,000.<\/p>\n

Update (1\/6\/2017):<\/strong><\/p>\n

We received some feedback questioning the numbers above. Some government employees reported that Utah Right to Know\u00a0numbers appeared inflated. We reached out to the State of Utah to better understand the numbers.<\/p>\n

We added a new post called\u00a0Accuracy of posted Park City teacher salaries<\/a>\u00a0that provides the State of Utah feedback and a description of why government employees may feel that numbers are inflated.<\/p>\n

However, for clarity in this article, you should know that BENEFITS\u00a0here include benefits that employees may not directly see in the form of cash<\/strong><\/em>. It may include money\u00a0like FICA tax paid by the district, health care expenses paid by the district, etc. We believe that generally the Gross Compensation numbers are accurate per the numbers reported by the Park City School District to the State of Utah. This is the amount of money the school district is paying in a year for an employee. However, these numbers are made up of salary, benefits the employee sees, and benefits paid by the school district that the employee may not directly see.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
