Government Workers' Compensation in Milwaukee

Just a reminder to go along with the 74% benefit-load on top of Milwaukee County workers' pay rates.

According to BLS, (May 2009/data from 2008), State and Local Government workers in SE Wisconsin earn a mean wage of $26.24/hour (plus benefits.)

Same chart, "private industry" workers in SE Wisconsin earn a mean wage of $20.24/hour (plus benefits.)

The $6.00/hour differential works out to about $12,500/year.

Sure, I'm quoting myself. But some posts are worth re-running.
