Wages and Salaries for State and Local Government Workers is an index to measure the percent change in the wages and salaries paid to state and local government workers. While the default view shows the 12-month percent change in wages and salaries for public administration workers, there are also data available for workers in education, health care and social assistance, and for all state and local government as a whole. Index data are available too. This data can help local governments know how much wages and salaries are increasing for their workers, nationally.
