Civil Servants Quantity by Postal Code, Department, Ranking Level, and Termination Reason, in the Year 2023

The UK government has released a detailed breakdown of various aspects of the civil service workforce as of 31 March 2023. This data, available on a headcount basis, offers valuable insights into the demographic, service, and work arrangement composition of the civil service.

The gender distribution, average age, and ethnic diversity of the civil service workforce are all provided, broken down by postcode, department, and responsibility level. This data provides a comprehensive picture of the diversity within the civil service, offering a foundation for future efforts to promote inclusivity.

In terms of service, the average length of service for civil servants and the number of new entrants between 1 April 2022 and 31 March 2023 are both available, again broken down by postcode, department, and entry method. This information allows for an analysis of the civil service's workforce turnover and recruitment trends.

The data also includes the number of civil servants who have received diversity and inclusion training, as well as those on flexible working arrangements and those who have left the civil service between the specified dates. The training data is broken down by postcode, department, and training type, while the leaving data provides a breakdown by postcode, department, and leaving cause.

Furthermore, the number of civil service departments that have implemented remote working and hybrid working policies as of 31 March 2023 is also available on a department basis. This information highlights the growing trend towards flexible work arrangements within the civil service.

However, data on which federal states had the highest number of exits from the civil service between April 1, 2022, and March 31, 2023, by postcode, department, and cause of termination, is currently unavailable.

This wealth of data provides a valuable resource for researchers, policymakers, and the public alike, offering a comprehensive and detailed picture of the UK's civil service workforce.
