Most civil servants report having witnessed some sort of unethical practice during their time in the public sector. Of all respondents, 58.7 percent stated that they witnessed some unethical practice during their career in public service. The most frequent practices were using one's position to help friends or family and bending the rules under pressure from one’s superiors. Over the past three years, around one third of all civil servants (33.4 percent) witnessed some unethical practice, according to their reports. Corruption in the public service is multifaceted, thus requiring granular information about its nature, prevalence, and vulnerable actors.

This Survey on Ethics and Corruption
in the Federal Public Service was held online from April 28
to May 28, 2021, in partnership with the Office of the
Federal Comptroller General (CGU), the Ministry of the
Economy, and the National School of Public Administration
(ENAP). All civil servants were represented in the sample,
totaling 22,130 respondents. The sample covered all
federative units and ministries. Most civil servants report
having witnessed some sort of unethical practice during
their time in the public sector. Of all respondents, 58.7
percent stated that they witnessed some unethical practice
during their career in public service. The most frequent
practices were using one's position to help friends or
family and bending the rules under pressure from one’s
superiors. Over the past three years, around one third of
all civil servants (33.4 percent) witnessed some unethical
practice, according to their reports. Corruption in the
public service is multifaceted, thus requiring granular
information about its nature, prevalence, and vulnerable
actors. In view of its scope, thematic scope, and
representativeness, the data generated by the study could
become a valuable source for the development of knowledge
about corruption in the federal public service. We hope that
this Survey on Ethics and Corruption in the Federal Public
