Federal government wage indexes
For nearly 50 years, the Employment Cost Index (ECI) has been providing the public with estimates of the change in employer labor costs. We explore the practicality of constructing federal wage indexes, in the spirit of the ECI, using Office of Personnel Management (OPM) salary data. To accomplish this task, we aggregate OPM records into occupation and
