Oldham council has 10 members of staff who earned £100,000 in total renumeration over the 2019-20 financial year A total of 97 members of council staff across Greater Manchester’s 10 boroughs are being paid more than £100,000 a year. Campaigners The Tax Payers’ Alliance, who are pushing for a low-tax society, has released its annual ‘Town Hall Rich List’ for the 2019-20 financial year – although councils more often than not also list their staff’s pay on their websites. In the list, all of the staff within Greater Manchester’s 10 borough councils who are paid a substantial wage from public money are listed. Funded by the tax payer, each staff member (some named, some not) has their basic salary listed, as well as their expenses claims for the last financial year and any pension contributions.
