People and workforce transformation for government and public sector

What EY can do for you

As the world continues to change, developments in globalization, demographics and technology are requiring government organizations to reimagine the work experience. Key people themes that have emerged include motivating and supporting employees through changes in ways of working and rethinking rewards and recognition.

Only by prioritizing placing humans at the center can sustainable value be created.



According to the EY 2022 Workplace Reimagined Survey, only 30% of government and public sector employees are considering leaving their positions; however, just 34% feel like their wellbeing has increased with the post-pandemic new ways of working.

We have designed our services around organization, culture, people and workforce experience. We integrate EY capabilities and assets into issue-based capabilities.
