2024 Public Service Employee Survey Results

The Public Service Employee Survey (PSES) provides information to help improve people management practices in the federal public service. Departments and agencies will be able to identify their areas of strength and concern related to topics such as: employee engagement, anti-racism, equity and inclusion and workplace well-being. The survey results track progress over time to help develop and refine action plans. Employees are given an opportunity to share their experiences to help improve the quality of the federal workplace. Better people management leads to better results for the public service and Canadians. Statistics Canada administered the 2024 PSES in partnership with the Office of the Chief Human Resources Officer, Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat. 186,635 employees in 93 federal departments and agencies responded to the 2024 Public Service Employee Survey, for a response rate of 50.5%.
