State salaries lag as Nebraska loses professional staff
The Legislature's Appropriations Committee heard that 4.3 percent of Nebraska's professional employees resigned in April to June as salaries lag behind private industry and other government units. A study found big gaps for lower paid workers, while higher paid state staff saw smaller gains than counterparts elsewhere. The discussion tied to budget cuts and the move away from zero-based budgeting, with hearings set for late November to mid-December.
