Emirates Group total employees 95k+
Looking at the latest reports EG employees number crossed 95,000. AFAIK that is almost 10,000 more than last year.
We know that very few are pilots and cabin crew may be little bit more. Where is it adding so many employees? Ground ops and kitchen may be??
Also is there any data available employees by nation/citizenship?
Thank You

as referred to in the Annual Report: dnata acquired a significant US ground handling business. So the 10,000 employee jump is not due to organic growth but rather an effect of M&A.

I was chatting to the ground staff in the UK the other day. Although they wear DNATA uniforms they work for "DNATA UK" which is a separate company. So, among other things, no profit share for them. Remarkably we still left on time.
I don't know if those numbers would be included in the total headcount?

According to annual report
Emirates 61,205
dnata 34,117
FC ~4000
CC ~20000
That puts other Emirates employee count at 37,000. That's a lot of non-core employees for one hub operation, not counting dnata.

Do you really notice 15% more pilots and 25% more cabin crew.

That's a great comparison, first I have ever seen.
Core Employees (FC + CC) per plane should give a better picture.
Emirates has a very lean core employee strength and bloated non-core employee strength again for a one hub in a city country.
2015-16 (14-15) % change
FC 3,868 (3,687) +4.9%
CC 21,722 (19,328) +12.4%
ENG 3,215 (2,702) +19%
Others 13,352 (13,182) +1.3%
Overseas 5,866 (5,672) +3.4 %
Subsidiaries 13,182 (12,154) +8.5%
Total 61,205 (56,725) +7.9%
dnata 34,117 (27,428) +24.4% (just 4.2% increase in UAE ops)

We know that very few are pilots and cabin crew may be little bit more. Where is it adding so many employees? Ground ops and kitchen may be??
Simple numbers don't really mean a thing , look at all the companies that have outsourced work , they are still paying the wages of everything outsourced......... you could have an airline with a small office running it with everything outsourced , doesn't mean its better or more efficient !

Metrics and performance indicators in aviation are never perfect. Use the one suits your story line.
I think simple way to compare is to just use Core staff (Pilots + CC).
There are too many parameters to measure efficiency making it very difficult to track, like.
WB (vs) NB (vs) RJ/TP
SH (vs) RJ (vs) MH (vs) LH (vs) ULH
Outsourced (vs) In-house
Number of staffed stations
Number of Engg stations
bvcu
Airlines trying to do everything in-house are not considered efficient either. EK sends MX work to world's cheapest MROs and gets kudos for it. Those who try to do in-house end up spending more money.
Lufthansa Teknik has 39 MRO locations worldwide, but that employee count(very little to do with LH airline) gets used in employee count per LH plane.

You guys are a tough crowd. I concede that the above metric may not be an accurate reflection of efficiency.
Instead I propose a vote on alternative metrics:
-number of phone call attempts to any office employee before someone answers
-time to get a reply to an email
-number of people in what's referred to as Costa, but should really include the entire Atrium as well as the fitness center and pool upstairs during business hours
-Number of people in history who have been able to reach anyone is staff travel on the phone... ever.
Any other ideas to measure airline efficiency feel free to add.
