In MoJ, staff data is collected monthly at month-end, as such we have provided data at the nearest available snapshot dates below:

  1. 70,227 FTE (Full Time Equivalent) - as at 30 November 2018

  2. 63,364 FTE – as at 30 June 2016

    The increase noted is almost exclusively in HMPPS (6,311 FTE) and predominantly in the operational line.
