Public Service Pay Centre dashboard
The Public Service Pay Centre provides pay and compensation services to 49 departments and agencies, representing over 250,000 active public servants. Our goal is to process transactions within service standards 95% of the time and have no transactions older than one year. We continue to work at all levels to resolve the number of outstanding transactions older than one year. This dashboard reports on the progress being made to ensure that public servants are paid accurately and on time.
This dashboard includes data up to and including September 23, 2026. We update this information monthly.
