Ukraine’s Finance Ministry Reveals Regional Administration Salaries: How Much Officials Earn.
Data from Ukraine’s Ministry of Finance
According to Novyny.live: As of April 2026, Ukraine’s Ministry of Finance has released figures on average salaries within regional state administrations and the total number of employees working in government bodies. The disclosed information shows that the actual headcount across all state agencies stands at 165,800 people. Over the past year, the workforce has decreased by 1,600 employees.
Workforce Breakdown
Government employment is divided into several categories:
- Central-level government bodies employ 108,600 people.
- Local state and military administrations account for 23,100 employees.
- The judiciary branch employs 34,100 people.
Average salaries vary significantly by the level of government:
- Employees in central government offices earn an average of 60,700 hryvnias.
- In regional-level territorial bodies, the average salary is 36,000 hryvnias.
- Staff in regional state and military administrations receive an average of 45,100 hryvnias.
Additionally, it is worth noting that draft law No. 10284 proposes increasing the involvement of state institutions in international technical assistance programs. This initiative could influence the future development of Ukraine’s public administration system and improve working conditions for civil servants.
The published data highlights a trend toward workforce reductions in government agencies, likely driven by budget optimization and ongoing reforms in the public administration system. At the same time, rising average salaries in central government bodies may boost interest in pursuing careers in the state sector.
