The king of overtime in Pennsylvania state government last year was a physician whose $277,994 income — more than half from overtime — earned him more than the governor’s annual salary.

Mohammed Aslam, M.D., staff physician at Wernersville State Hospital, received $143,284 in overtime on top of his $134,710 annual base salary, according to information from the Office of Administration in response to a Right to Know Law request filed by The Sunday Times, a Times-Shamrock newspaper in Scranton.

The governor’s annual salary is set at $190,823. Gov. Tom Wolf said he is not taking any of the salary this year; former Gov. Tom Corbett took part of his governor salary.

Aslam, a state Department of Human Services employee, was also the top overtime earner in 2013, when he received $151,555 in overtime.

He joins nine other state workers who are part of Pennsylvania’s $100,000-plus overtime club. Second on the list of state employees who took home more than $100,000 in overtime last year is Robert G. Yager Jr., D.O., a psychiatrist supervisor at Clarks Summit State Hospital.
