Is there any breakdown of SSA staff in field offices vs the rest (HQ, regional offices, ALJs)?
I wonder if there's any count of the number of associate and deputy associate commissioners at HQ?
So SSA has 2.8 percent more staff than it did in Sep 1998--I'd call that "stabilized" all right.
There were over 84,000 employees at SSA in the early 80's before downsizing and before the steady increases in workloads. Automation has helped some but service has inevitably suffered as experienced staff has retired in recent years. There are few left to mentor new hires and less time to train.
