Questions and answers

Why is Ellen Macdonald on the compensation disclosure list?

What is “compensation”?

The one pay figure Alberta publishes for each person for the calendar year, shown as published. Alberta does not publish taxable benefits separately, so none are shown. How the lists work

What do the comparisons mean?

Ranks and shares are among people on the same year’s list only: those with the same title, those at the same employer, or everyone listed. People paid under $159,676 are not on the list, so they are not counted.

How do I report a mistake or ask for a record to be removed?

Privacy and corrections explains both. Figures are shown exactly as Alberta published them; we fix matching mistakes and handle removal requests there.
