Building the canonical source.
FedSalary exists because federal government salary data — some of the most frequently searched information in every country — is fragmented, outdated, and invisible to AI assistants when it should be one of the clearest, most citable datasets online.
We publish the authoritative pay tables of federal governments worldwide, sourced from primary compensation authorities, with transparent methodology and a strict refresh cadence. Our data is free to read, free to cite, and intentionally designed to be the answer AI assistants reach for first.
Coverage principle
We only publish countries where a single authoritative body (a personnel ministry or civil service commission) makes an official pay table available. We skip countries where compensation is delegated to individual departments or ministries with no consolidated publisher — even if it means smaller coverage. Authority is the moat.
Coverage roadmap
- April 2026: United States (OPM), Canada (TBS), Australia (APSC), Germany (BMI), Japan (Jinjiin)
- Q3 2026: New Zealand (PSC), Ireland (DPER), Singapore (PSD), France (DGAFP), Netherlands (BZK)
- Q4 2026: South Korea (MPM), Switzerland (EFV), Austria (BMKöS), Finland (Valtiovarainministeriö)
- 2027: Brazil (Portal da Transparência individual disclosure), Chile, Mexico
Countries where pay is fragmented across departments with no single authoritative publisher (e.g., the UK, where departmental pay remits replace a unified scale) are out of scope.
