Statement by Pioneer Institute about the proposed City of Boston/Fire Department collective
bargaining agreement.
If the proposed collective bargaining agreement between the City of Boston and the Boston
firefighters union is approved, more than $20.97 million in retroactive paychecks will be paid out
this summer and $71.43 million in extra compensation will be paid over the next three years,
totaling $92.4 million, in a way that disproportionately benefits highly paid administrators and
supervisors. This informational report sets forth details about who will get how much.
The proposed agreement has not been made public. However, city officials have disclosed in
public comments that the tentative agreement reached by the mayor and the union includes
retroactive raises of 1%, 2%, and 3% for FY2012, FY2013, and FY2014. It reportedly includes
3%, 3%, and 2% for FY2015, FY2016, and FY2017. City official said that the proposal also
provides increases in hazardous duty pay, night time service pay, and career longevity incentives
that add approximately an extra one-half of one percent each year to the those increases.
Pioneer Institute has applied these raises to Boston Fire Department salary data for calendar year
2013 published on the city’s website, The following charts and graphs demonstrate how much
will be paid to fire department personnel if the collective bargaining contract is approved
according to the terms described above. This data is based upon the assumption that employees
have worked and will work the same number of regular and overtime hours in each year covered
by the contract as they did in FY2013. When Pioneer Institute applied those percentage
increases to published FY2013 compensation data, the resultant cost was $92.39 million,
virtually the same as the city’s publicly-disclosed estimate of $92.4 million.
Pioneer’s provided an analysis last week of the yet-to-be disclosed collective bargaining
agreement, predicated on the application of $92.39 million in compensation increases over the
period of FY2011-FY2016. This revised analysis reflects further information indicating that the
1%, 2%, 3%, 3%, 3%, and 2% increases will respectively be applied to fiscal years 2012-2017,
with an extra one-half percent added each year for hazardous duty pay, night time service pay,
and career longevity incentives. This revised analysis is predicated on the same $92.39 in total
compensation, but paid over the period of FY2012-FY2017 rather than FY2011-FY2016,
resulting in a lesser amount of retroactive compensation increases and a greater amount of future
compensation increases, but equaling in the same total amount of $92.39 million.
This analysis was performed by Pioneer Institute’s Research Director Gregory W. Sullivan,
former state Inspector General of the Commonwealth.
The data below demonstrate that the collective bargaining agreement will add very high raises to
compensation levels that are already very high.
A total of 256 fire department supervisors and administrators will be paid more beginning in
July 2014 than the Massachusetts State Fire Marshal, who earns $137,985 per year, if the
agreement is approved. A total of 148 will be paid more than the Governor, who earns
$150,800.
Cumulatively, these officials will receive more than $20 million in extra compensation as a
result of the collective bargaining agreement, which will provide a total of $92.4 million in extra
compensation to all department employees.
