Source: Kentucky OpenDoor / transparency.ky.gov State Employee Salary Search (Personnel Cabinet KHRIS + institution-supplied), retrieved Sept. 12, 2026. Figures are each position's annual salary rate as of Aug. 24, 2026 per the Personnel Cabinet's KHRIS snapshot; not gross pay, no overtime or benefits. annualSalary is the API field totalSalary, which the site presents as the employee's current annual salary rate (not gross pay, no overtime). Head-coach rows show multi-year contract totals, so treat outliers with care. county is the work county for Executive/Judicial/Legislative rows (populated), and null for post-secondary institution rows. ky-state-employees-fayette.json is the Fayette-county subset. Rows are per person-position; a person with two positions may appear twice.
