How the GNWT’s workforce is changing in nine charts: 2024 edition – Cabin Radio
December 3, 2024
The NWT government of 2024 is much larger and more costly than it was even five years ago, the territory’s latest internal data shows.
Every year, the territorial government publishes a public service report that documents how many staff it has, where they come from, where they work, and how much they cost.
In the 2023-24 financial year, the NWT government had 6,479 employees, up from 5,289 in 2018-19. The big leap came from 2019 to 2021, when the GNWT added nearly 1,000 people in the space of two years.
