British Columbia’s 2025 compensation disclosure: every disclosed public-sector compensation for the year, with top earners, sectors, and employers.
In 2025, 156,853 employees at 102 British Columbia public-sector employers were disclosed on the province’s compensation disclosure (FY 2024-25, the fiscal year ending in 2025). The average disclosed compensation was $115,904 and the median was $106,086 — the disclosure covers only employees above the $75,000 threshold in force that year, not the entire public-sector workforce.
Compared with 2024, the list grew by 135,863 names (+647%, from 20,990 to 156,853), and the average disclosed compensation rose 7.8% from $107,520.
The highest-paid person on the 2025 list was RM Campbell at Powerex, at $1,584,119. The full top 25 is below; for interactive filtering of all 156,853 records, use the data explorer or see the British Columbia dashboard for the latest year.
FY 2025 figures include school district SOFI data (~21K employees over $75K) that wasn't ingested for prior fiscal years; the headcount increase is partly a coverage change, not a workforce change. FY 2010 is missing from the source data.
