Public-sector financial officer — base pay grid

A working-level government Financial Officer classification (entry step to top step). The series has several levels — a different level shifts the band materially. Alberta omitted (no cleanly-named finance classification). Effective dates differ, so this is not a same-year comparison.

Previously published benchmark snapshot; effective dates and agreement scope are shown below. These base-pay ranges differ from annual disclosure totals.
