Tasmania freezes non-essential public hires to cut workforce, aiming to manage rising debt.
Tasmania's government has implemented a hiring freeze for non-essential public servants until May 29, aimed at reducing the public service workforce, which has grown by 18% since the pandemic.
Treasurer Guy Barnett assured roles like doctors, nurses, and teachers are unaffected.
The move comes as the state aims to manage its growing net debt, forecasted to reach $8.6 billion by 2027/28.
Forced redundancies are not planned during the freeze but may occur later.
