Around 1.4 million people working in almost 400 organisations make up the local government workforce in England and Wales, all contributing to the wellbeing and success of our communities.
Our workforce data supports employers to recruit and manage a skilled, engaged and cost-effective workforce that is able to take on challenging and complex roles and deliver life changing work.
The LGA Research Team has led the collection, validation and publication of a range of key workforce data topics for directly employed staff in our sector.
