Saskatchewan’s 2019 payee disclosure: every disclosed public-sector compensation for the year, with top earners, sectors, and employers.
In 2019, 18,275 employees at 41 Saskatchewan public-sector employers were disclosed on the province’s payee disclosure (FY 2018-19, the fiscal year ending in 2019). The average disclosed compensation was $90,113 and the median was $80,914 — the disclosure covers only employees above the $50,000 threshold in force that year, not the entire public-sector workforce.
The highest-paid person on the 2019 list was Michael Marsh at Saskatchewan Power Corporation, at $565,291. The full top 25 is below; for interactive filtering of all 18,275 records, use the data explorer or see the Saskatchewan dashboard for the latest year.
Saskatchewan figures combine the CIC Crown corporations with core government (every General Revenue Fund employee paid $50,000+, from Public Accounts Volume 2), reported on a fiscal-year basis (e.g. 2024 = the year ending March 31, 2024). Both sources cover every year shown here (FY 2018-19 onward), so the $50,000 threshold and the covered population are consistent across years.
