Crossing The 70,000 Threshold

The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) has posted the year end figures for the number of employees at Social Security. Here they are with earlier numbers for comparison purposes.
  • December 2010 70,270
  • June 2010 69,600
  • March 2010 66,863
  • December 2009 67,486
  • September 2009 67,632
  • June 2009 66,614
  • March 2009 63,229
  • December 2008 63,733
  • September 2008 63,990
  • September 2007 62,407
  • September 2006 63,647
  • September 2005 66,147
  • September 2004 65,258
  • September 2003 64,903
  • September 2002 64,648
  • September 2001 65,377
  • September 2000 64,521
  • September 1999 63,957
  • September 1998 65,629
By the way, before anyone claims that the increase in the number of employees at Social Security shows that there is some fat that can be cut, let me just remind everyone that Social Security's workload has been increasing rapidly because of the aging of the baby boomer generation.

  1. Does this also mean that some SSA employees are delaying their retirements?
