Civil Service Pay Governance

Primary endpoints

• Salary data (public sector statistics): https://www.fin.ee/riigihaldus-ja-avalik-teenistus-kinnisvara/riigihaldus/avaliku-sektori-statistika#ametnike-palgaandmed
• Pay governance page: https://www.fin.ee/riigihaldus-ja-avalik-teenistus-kinnisvara/avalik-teenistus/palgakorraldus

Retrieval workflow (reproducible)

1. Open pay-governance page.
2. Collect all linked files under /sites/default/files/documents/....
3. Classify each record by purpose (methodology handbook, memo, disclosure guide, template).
4. Extract year/date from filename and nearby text.
5. Return sorted record list with absolute URLs.

Request/query contract

• No auth required.
• File retrieval is direct over HTTPS.
• There is no documented API; extraction is from published file links.

Output schema expectations

• source_page_url
• document_title
• document_url
• file_format
• publication_or_version_year
• document_category

Limits and caveats

• Titles can be abbreviated and may require filename parsing for year/version.
• Governance documents may reference frameworks published on other pages.

Verification hooks

• Page contains files such as Ametnike palkade avalikustamise juhend_2026.pdf and 01.04.2026 põhipalgad vorm.xlsx.
• Methodological documents are available (e.g., ametikohtade hindamise kasiraamat_2018.pdf).
