University staffing in NZ
The NZ Initiative has analysed data on staff numbers in NZ universities. They found:
- 7,380 ‘academic staff’ and 11,265 ‘other staff’ at New Zealand universities in 2021.
- A ratio of approximately 1.5 non- academics to every academic.
- In other countries the rations are Australia 1.2, US 0.8, UK 0.8
- Non-academic staff salaries make up around 45% of the total staff costs
This might partially explain why the universities have such large deficits!
