Why are govt wages not tied to easily auditable industry benchmarks? I can’t get a corp job anywhere that doesn’t put me in “an industry standard benchmarked paygrade” so how is it even possible that the statehouse and city hall can’t figure out something as basic as “pay state employees fairly”
Because that costs money, government money comes from taxes, Indiana prides itself in being a low tax state, and no politician wants to raise taxes.
I have been working for almost 45 years and no one that I have worked with/or for me felt they were “fairly” paid. Compensation in pay consists of many items. The City/state positions are known to offer benefits many private sector jobs don’t. It’s currently the best worker’s market I’ve seen in all my years. The market always sets the pay scale. In my business we’re currently offering outrageous salaries for young employees with no experience – and loosing out!
