Print this article

The Department of Community Affairs (DCA) recently provided notice to their county contacts and to ACCG that the 2018 Government Management Indicators (GOMI) Survey and 2018 Wage and Salary Survey have both gone "live" on the DCA website. The due date for both of these surveys is June 30, 2018. The GOMI Survey is a mandatory requirement provided for in O.C.G.A. § 36-81-8. The Wage and Salary Survey is a voluntary survey, however, the information contained within this survey is the most popular research request that ACCG receives from counties each year. As such, it is strongly encouraged that your county participate.

In terms of what type of information is collected through these surveys, GOMI collects data on county operations, including financial management practices, service delivery arrangements, public facilities provided, and planning efforts. This information is helpful in identifying trends in county operations. The Wage and Salary Survey collects data on the pay range, number of full time employees, and the number of hours worked each week for over 160 different local government jobs. Information from the survey is used to produce printable reports that can be used by counties.
