There are over 750,000 employees in the public sector who receive salaries from the state budget, according to the assessment of information systems secretary’s office. The registration ends today and 680,394 civil servants were registered by yesterday evening.
The first stage of the counting registered staff in ministries, town councils, municipalities, the church, local government organizations and employees working on contract at the moment. The second stage, which will begin in autumn, will register employees in state companies, companies, foundations and municipal companies. Thus the total number of employees in the public sector is expected to exceed 1 million.
124,770 people have registered until July 12 at the Ministry of Education, which has the largest number of employees. Second is the Ministry of DefenCe, which employs 40,782 people. The police are in third place with 37,481 officers. Thenl follow the state insurance fund IKA with 12,770 people, the Ministry of Finance with 9,042 and the Ministry of Health with 8,964 people.
The civil servants entered their data from 11:00 to 13:00 and in early afternoon. The first day, when 250,000 employees logged on at the same time, the system collapsed. The registration passed smoothly in the next days. Most state employees have registered between 18:00 and 19:00 on July 12 - 11 981 people, and only one registered at midnight on July 7.
The counting will most likely be elongated with three days to ensure that all those who receive salary from the state budget are registered. It is expected the Information systems secretary’s office to announce today the decision of the Ministers of the Interior and of Finance, concerning the term extention, Ethnos newspaper reported.
The data will be crossed at three levels – in administrative departments, social insurance funds, and finally in the United payments service, immediately after the census. It will be checked whether people who should not register – such as pensioners, employees in companies and foundations – have registered and whether employees who were required to register have done it.
Those who have not registered will not receive salary until they enter their data into the system. The state will know after the counting how many employees it has in order to be able to use them more effectively. It will be also easier to move some of them to other jobs where they will be more useful. Census will be used to form the payroll for the payments of the civil servants.
Unified payments service will commence on 1 November. After the registration of the employees their data will be checked. This will identify those who did not declare their income and “cut” payments that exceed the legal limits as they are formulated in the Memorandum signed with the Triple (International Monetary Fund, European Union and European Central Bank).
