The Indonesian State Civil Apparatus Agency (BKN) reports that the number of civil servants (PNS) in Indonesia reached 3.79 million in the first half of 2023. This figure represents a 2.44% decrease compared to December 31, 2022 (year-to-date/ytd).

The trend shows a continuous decline in the number of PNS in Indonesia over the past decade, as seen in the graph above.

In 2012, the total number of PNS in Indonesia was 4.46 million. Since then, the number has steadily decreased, reaching its lowest point in the first half of 2023.

By region, the majority of PNS work in regional institutions. In the first half of 2023, the number of PNS in regional institutions reached 2.86 million, approximately 75% of the total PNS in Indonesia. Meanwhile, the number of PNS in central government institutions was only 932,040 (25%).

Based on gender, the majority of PNS are women, totaling 2.03 million (approximately 54% of the total), while male PNS number 1.76 million (46%).

By age, the majority of PNS are in the 51-60 age group, reaching 1.29 million (34% of the total PNS in the first half of 2023). This is followed by the 41-50 age group with 1.23 million (33%) and the 31-40 age group with 912,190 (24%).

Regarding education level, the majority of PNS are university graduates, totaling 2.62 million (69%), followed by diploma graduates with 593,910 (16%), and those with primary to secondary school education with 580,830 (15%).

In terms of years of service, most PNS have worked for 11-20 years (1.96 million or 52%), followed by 0-10 years (1.22 million or 32%), 21-30 years (564,130 or 15%), and over 30 years (36,920 or 1%).

Registration for the State Civil Apparatus (ASN) selection has been open since September 20th to October 9th, 2023, for prospective PNS and government employees with work agreements (PPPK).
