There is a rule of thumb where you take an employee's salary and divide by 1000 to get what they would actually cost the employer. Multiple by full time hours (2080) and you get their actual cost.

Or, just go to this calculator and play http://www.artlogic.com/resources/em...ator/index.php. It's more IT focused obviously, but the principle is the same as there will be training costs for cops and equipment costs would likely be higher than a knowledge worker.
Wow, that means my employer think I am costing them over $150k - WOW - I still feel poor. How is it exactly that ancillary costs should more than double the persons salary?

The city must have a sweet pension or something because I know my position doesnt cost that much - at least in the private sector.
