Bavarian state administration counted at nearly 91,000 posts
Original: Zum Vergleich: Allein die bayerische Landesverwaltung hat einen Umfang von 90.780 Stellen - ohne Lehrer, Polizei, Finanz
A comparison circulating online points out that Bavaria's state administration alone comprises 90,780 positions, excluding teachers, police and the tax administration, citing the 2023 staffing statistics of the Bavarian Supreme Audit Office. The figure is being shared as a benchmark in debates about the scale of public bureaucracies in Germany and the EU, with commenters weighing in on whether such staffing levels indicate excessive bureaucracy.
Why now: The figure is being cited as an argument in ongoing debates about bureaucracy and the size of public administration.
