Number of Federal Employees
How many federal employees are there in the US?
At least 2,748,978.
There are 2,748,978 civilian federal employees in the United States as of January 2009. This is according to the Federal Employment Statistics published by the U.S. Office of Personnel Management. Employees with security agencies (CIA, NSA, etc) as well as the National Imagery and Mapping Agency are not included in this number. 97.6% of civilian federal employees work in the executive branch of government.
This fact is verified on : March 29, 2010. All facts are verified every 6 month after the last modification.
Does this statistic include the Postal Workers (~600k)? It does not distinguish between the civilian and military. I think the civilian segment is 1.3 million and if the 600k is excluded, it brings the total to 1.9 million civilian federal workers.
Havlin must be a Federal worker, and stupid, too. This does not include the number of federal retired workers, most with twenty years service, federal contractors (yes there are millions more), or number of former federal workers getting disability (the biggest joke in goverment, so easy to get), state and municipal employees, school boards, etc. The Democrats and Rupublicans keep saying they want to protect the middle class and working people, but as government grows, fewer and fewert are paying the price. The current administration just spent about 3.5 trillion and we have no way of paying for it. Is the party over??????
Of course Havlin will still be getting his paycheck (government) and retire at what age, 42??????, while veterans struggle years to get a disability claim approved, by thesae so called federal employees, who could not begin to survive in us woreking peoples world………..
Some information site this is. Your data for number of federal employees is over 3 years old!! Info is only valuable if it is current. So yours is worthless.
