POLICE EMPLOYEES WHO MADE MORE THAN $140,000

A former drug squad officer suspended with pay while facing criminal charges was among 769 Toronto Police Service employees earning more than $100,000 in 2007.

The total includes 622 staff whose base pay is normally below $100,000. Their earnings were topped up with premium pay – including money for court attendance and overtime – and other payouts such as final vacation pay, sick pay and retroactive adjustments.

Police spokesperson Mark Pugash said yesterday he didn't have breakdowns of the payouts to individuals appearing on the top earners list, which is required to be made public under the Public Sector Salary Disclosure Act. The list of people earning more than $100,000 will be presented to the police services board at its monthly meeting Thursday.

The act does not require the force to report "paid duty earnings," paid to officers by individuals or business requesting police presence.

The 769 employees earning six figures in 2007 is an increase from 708 in 2006. In 2005, 279 were paid more than $100,000, up from 240 in 2004.

"If salaries go up by 3 per cent each year and the threshold stays the same, it stands to reason that the numbers are going to increase," Pugash said.

The service has initiated several strategies "for monitoring and controlling premium pay," he said.

"Overtime and callbacks must be approved by a supervisor. Unit commanders receive daily overtime reports and have access to other timekeeping and earning reports."

John Schertzer, a former staff sergeant who ran the Central Field Command drug unit, received $106,614 last year while on paid leave. He was one of six officers facing extortion, assault and obstructing justice charges. The charges were stayed earlier this year after a judge ruled lengthy delays had denied the officers their constitutional rights to a timely trial.

The Crown is appealing the decision. Schertzer retired last October after 32 years on the force. Pugash couldn't confirm if his paycheque included lump sum payments relating to his retirement.

Salaries make up more than 95 per cent of the police budget, which is closing in on $800 million.

Chief Bill Blair was paid $270,052 last year.

The Toronto Police Association is currently negotiating a contract with management.
The Toronto Police Accountability Coalition, a police watchdog group, says it anticipates the eventual settlement will include a pay increase of at least 3.5 per cent for the coming year.

The Toronto Police Service pays out $35 million a year in "premium pay" – overtime – to its 5,510 officers in uniform and that expenditure, "will need to be looked at to see if there's money to be saved," board chair Alok Mukherjee said last summer. "It's going to be a difficult challenge," he said at the time.

The city's biggest expenditures are in social services, policing and the TTC.

It's called o/t you dummies. Pay duties get them about $50-$60 hr, court time, time after their shift writing reports, etc. My dad made close to 100g's a few year's before he retired.

There are even guys I work with at Toyota who make an easy 6 figures just from hard work. It's not that hard when you make $30+ hr and work lots of o/t.

Yeah, but these are probably seasoned constables with the force for several decades. Not all constables advance to Sgt status' or higher.

LOL @ this thread.

You think the cops get paid a lot? Paramedics can make 100k + WITH EASE with overtime and getting overtime isn't hard at all. Thats just for the Primary Care Paramedics (entry level), once you get into Advance Care and Critical Care (helicopter) the pay goes up.

If you think cops are lazy and don't deserve the pay, look no further than our lazy heroes, the firefighter.... Yes I know people in Toronto, Durham and Kingston services so I do know a little on a the subject.

i'm trying to become a firefighter and the pay isn't enough. I too have friends in this field. All it takes is one fire and you'll change your opinion about firefighters being lazy hero's.....better hope your house doesn't catch a lite! Maybe the ones you know are lazy but it's constant training and awareness on how to prevent and protect against fires.
