  • You decide if it’s an invasion of privacy

    April 8, 2009

    Have you ever wondered how awkward it would be to have everyone in your office knowing everyone else’s salary – exactly?

    Many of us in government contracting are about to find out…

    Thanks to a little-known website posted as a public service by a local New Jersey newspaper, every Federal Employee’s 2007 salary is available for viewing and sharing. Postal payroll is a current as last month, and New Jersey state workers have their 2008 pay listed.

    There are even lots of handy search functions that make it easy to determine what your boss’s boss’ salary, or how much that guy in accounting rakes in.

    Is this too much information? An offensive disregard of privacy? Merely good access to public information? Check it out for yourself and then let us know what you think by commenting below. http://www.app.com/apps/pbcs.dll/section?Category=DATA

    Fantastic! All government jobs should be listed for the public to
    see. Now I know how may tax dollars are wasted once again.
