2023 State Employee Salary Database: Higher Education Data Needed
OFM is responsible for providing the data necessary to update the State Employee Salary Database posted on the state fiscal transparency website. This database contains both general government and higher education employee salary data.
What is needed?
To ensure data integrity, OFM requests that the four-year higher education institutions and the State Board of Community & Technical Colleges provide the higher education employee gross earnings data for calendar year 2023. Community colleges do not need to provide independent data, SBCTC will provide this information. Colleges do need to be aware of the posting of this information and work with SBCTC if any redactions are needed in relation to RCW 42.56.250.
An updated State Employee Salary File Specification 2023 document is available detailing how the data should be prepared for the file transfer. The specifications have been updated from the previous year, please review the critical data notes. Submit the data to the MFT account and target location used by the institution when sending HR data files each pay period.
When is it needed?
Please upload the data file no later than January 31, 2024. E-mail StrategicHR@ofm.wa.gov when the file is loaded into MFT. In the subject line of the e-mail please note ‘SESD File Loaded’.
