Average Federal Salary and Average Compensation Including Benefits
According to BEA data, the average federal employee salary in 2010 was $83,679 and $51,986 for the average private sector salary.
When benefits are added in, the average compensation for each federal employee comes to $126,141. For private sector workers, the average compensation package, including benefits, was $62,757 for the same year.
In other words, the federal government often pays salaries that are higher than the private sector at the lower end of the skill levels required and often pays lower salaries than the private sector when more complex skills are required.
