This includes health insurance, dental and vision, retirement and vacation leave. Health insurance premiums paid by employees are scaled progressively such that employees in the lowest pay grade pay a premium that is 62% lower than that paid by employees in the highest pay grade. Not included in the calculation is a generous college tuition benefit for the children of employees.
