Office of the State Controller Launches Transparency Initiative

The Office of the State Controller today launched a website that enables public review of state government employee salaries.  With this action, the state of North Carolina joins the North Carolina University System, and many other state governments including Georgia, South Carolina and Tennessee, in providing salary transparency resources.  

“Improved transparency will enhance workforce recruitment and retention,” said State Controller Nels Roseland. “The state government workforce is facing a significant retirement wave and a resulting loss of institutional knowledge. Today’s workforce demands and expects payroll transparency.”
