Public Service Pay Centre dashboard
The Public Service Pay Centre provides pay and compensation services to 48 departments and agencies, representing almost 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 April 23, 2025. We update this information monthly. As of April 23, 2025, the total number of transactions ready to be processed no longer includes financial transactions sent to home departments for processing and closure. By no longer including these transactions in our reporting, we’re presenting a more accurate picture of the Pay Centre’s current workload. These excluded transactions total 25,000, which explains the large decrease observed this month.

Breakdown in relation to service standards
Between March 27 and April 23, 2025, the number of outstanding transactions over a year old decreased by 23,000.
This month
119,000
new transactions received between March 27 and April 23, 2025
116,000
transactions processed between March 27 and April 23, 2025
83%
of non-collective bargaining transactions within the last 12 months were processed within service standards
The number of transactions received at the Pay Centre has steadily increased since 2021. This increase, along with the high complexity of outstanding transactions that remain, have limited our ability to reduce the number of transactions outside service standards.
Nonetheless, we are making progress and the number of transactions processed each month has generally increased, a result of our investments in technology and human resources.
