About Transparent California
Transparent California uses uniform pay categories to mirror the categories used by the reporting agencies as much as possible.
For instance, the “Overtime pay” column reflects the values reported under “Overtime pay” by the respective agency. The “Regular Pay” column is the amount reported under either “Base pay” or “Total regular pay.”
While some agencies report many additional forms of pay separately, the vast majority only provide two additional forms of pay categories: “Other pay” and “Lump sum pay.” Transparent California’s “Other pay” category is the sum of these two categories. “Lump sum pay” is one-time payments such as payouts for unused vacation and sick leave. “Other Pay” includes all forms of pay not reported in the previous categories and may include, among other things, car allowances, meeting stipends, longevity pay, incentive pay, and bonus pay.
“Total benefits” consists of the employer-paid cost of health, dental and vision medical insurance and retirement contributions only. The cost of benefits do not reflect monetary payments received by the employee but, instead, reflect the cost incurred by taxpayers associated with employer-provided health and retirement benefits.
The total cost of the employee will be higher than the values reported here as there are associated costs, such as workman’s compensation, state unemployment insurance, Medicare and Social Security, that we do not report as employee compensation.
The “Total pay & benefits” column under reports the total compensation of government employees whose government employer did not provided complete salary or benefit information.
For pensions, all values reflect the actual monetary value of benefits received during the respective year reported.
