Method: Overtime bigger than salary

Jobs where people on the compensation list earned more in overtime than in base salary, counted by employer and job title.

Why people look at this

Very high overtime can mean a unit is short-staffed, or that overtime is not managed. It is one of the most-read parts of any sunshine list.

How it is worked out

  1. Compensation disclosure lists, 2022 to 2025: people whose overtime was greater than their base salary.
  2. Shown as counts by employer, job title and year. Names are on the government's lists; this page does not repeat them.

Data used

What it cannot tell you

The list only includes people paid over $100,000, rounded to $100 by the publisher.

The Open Contracting Partnership's guide to red flags puts it this way: a red flag is not evidence that anything wrong happened. It points at something that may be worth a closer look.

This page and the calculation are generated from one definition, so they cannot drift apart. See the results.
