The civil service is committed to reflecting the society we serve at all levels—clearly, this includes disabled people. The recently published “Promoting Equality, Valuing Diversity—A Strategy for the Civil Service” builds on what has already been achieved and sets out what the civil service wants to achieve in equality and diversity in employment over the next three to five years. The document is available on the civil service website at:

The following table shows the median earnings of disabled staff, broken down by full-time and part-time working patterns for all Departments and agencies. Further data on the disabled status of civil service staff are available on the Office for National Statistics (ONS) website:

part-time staff are reported as a full-time equivalent figure. 4 Numbers less than five. 5 Figures for the Office for National Statistics exclude field staff who were not civil servants at the reference date. 6 Includes government office for the regions employees. 7 Due to the self-reporting nature of disability and the process by which part time salaries are up-rated in order that they are comparable to full-time staff salaries, care should be exercised when drawing conclusions based on these statistics.
