From the Executive Summary: The purpose of this study is to compare the levels of compensation, and the changes over time in those levels, in the public and private sectors. It is believed that this study makes a unique contribution to the public discussion by focusing on compensation comparisons for specific occupations in the public and private sectors and by distinguishing among the different levels of government and the various quasi-government agencies in the public sector. This report presents an analysis of the level of compensation for similar jobs in the public and private sectors as well as an investigation of the changes in salaries for positions that are unique to a particular sector. In addition to comparing annual salaries over time and hourly rates of pay as of mid-1978, the non-wage benefits in a number of public sectors and the private sector are studied.
