Sector breakdowns are useful when comparing agencies that play similar roles in state government. A statewide average within a sector tells you what a typical employee in that line of work earns; agency-by-agency variation often reflects size, mission complexity, and geographic location of the workforce. To dig deeper, click into any individual agency above for the full employee directory, or compare a specific role across agencies from the job titles index.

Public payroll data is published in the public interest. It exists so taxpayers can see, in plain numbers, how the public workforce is structured and compensated. We add aggregations and search to make that data more useful — but the underlying records come straight from the State of Texas. See our methodology for sourcing and caveats.
