1994 LoCAL GOVERNMENT WAGE & SALARY SURVEY
Municipal Govemment
Public Safety Employment
Inttoduetlon
The Georgia Department of Community Affairs began collecting wage and salary data in 1987, providing key reference infonnation for state and local elected officials, administrators, and citizens. This publication is the result of data collected from the 1995 Municipal Wage and Salary Survey, administered by the Office of Infonnation Services, Georgia Department of Community Affairs.
Separate publications are available in county and municipal government editions for 1995 wage and salary data covering four key areas oflocal government employment: administration and general, public safety, public works, and solid waste. Each publication contains an appendix with summary infonnation on fringe benefits, as well as an appendix listing the jurisdictions responding to the 1995 Municipal Wage and Salary Survey. Data on elected officials' salaries can be obtained by calling the Office ofInfonnation Services, Georgia Department of Community Affairs, at (404) 679-4950. We would like to thank local officials and staffwho took the time to complete the survey. Their participation has made this publication possible.
Data In This Publlcadon
This publication includes data on wages and salaries for municipal government public safety employees as of October I, 1995. Wage and salary data are collected and reported for full-time positions only. Full-time employment, for the purposes of this report, is defined as 35 hours or more per week. Governments are also asked to report the number of employees in each position. Data reported for vacant positions will reflect a "0" in the "Number of full-time employees" column. Where data elements have not been reported by a local government, "NR" will appear.
The survey requested the entry level and maximum wage on either an hourly or annual basis. If hourly figures were reported, the infonnation was converted to an annual salary based on the number of weekly hours reported. If hours were not reported, a 40-hour work week was assumed. If a government did not have a pay scale or salary range, it was instructed to enter the actual salary paid to an incumbent as both the minimum and maximum rates.
For public safety positions only, governments were asked to enter a yes or no response to whether the Fair Labor Standards Act 7(k) exemption is used. The 7(k) exemption allows public agencies to balance hours over an entire work period and establishes a higher number of weekly non-overtime
hours than is otherwise applicable. Ifa government uses this exemption, the actual number of hours
worked on these alternative work periods will be displayed in this report. (This amount is usually more than 40 hours.) The salary reported is the actual salary paid and has not been annualized.
Job Descdpdons
Job descriptions for positions included in this report are arranged in alphabetical order and can be found following this Introduction. Local governments were asked to provide salary infonnation for those jobs whose duties most closely resemble the job descriptions included in this report, even if their government uses a different job title for that particular position.
Populadon Groups
Population groups are used to facilitate comparison of detailed and summary data on jurisdictions of similar size. Population group ranges in the table use 1990 Bureau of the Census populations; the table reflects both the number ofjurisdictions in each group and the number ofjurisdictions responding to the 1995 survey.
