Saskatchewan’s 2021 payee disclosure: every disclosed public-sector compensation for the year, with top earners, sectors, and employers.
In 2021, 9,642 employees at 8 Saskatchewan public-sector employers were disclosed on the province’s payee disclosure (FY 2020-21, the fiscal year ending in 2021). The average disclosed compensation was $100,272 and the median was $88,773 — the disclosure covers only employees above the $50,000 threshold in force that year, not the entire public-sector workforce.
Compared with 2020, the list shrank by 118 names (-1.2%, from 9,760 to 9,642), and the average disclosed compensation rose 2.3% from $97,999.
The highest-paid person on the 2021 list was Blair Swystun at Crown Investments Corporation, at $973,463. The full top 25 is below; for interactive filtering of all 9,642 records, use the data explorer or see the Saskatchewan dashboard for the latest year.
Saskatchewan figures are Crown-sector only (the CIC Crown corporations) and reported on a fiscal-year basis (e.g. 2024 = the year ending March 31, 2024). The $50,000 threshold and Crown-corporation coverage are consistent across years.
