Royal Canadian Mounted Police

The RCMP plans to eliminate 63 employees and 13 executive positions at its national headquarters in Ottawa as part of the federal government's comprehensive expenditure review. Front-line RCMP officers and specialized civilian members hired under the RCMP Act are not eligible for the early retirement incentive program.

Royal Canadian Mounted Police is eliminating 173 positions (150 employees and 23 executives) as part of the federal government's Comprehensive Expenditure Review (Budget 2025). This total includes vacant positions, projected attrition, and positions to be eliminated through formal workforce adjustment. Of these, 76 currently filled positions (63 employees and 13 executives) are undergoing formal Workforce Adjustment (WFA) or Career Transition (CT) proceedings — the most direct indicator of employees facing displacement. 285 "affected" or "at-risk" status letters have been issued (264 to employees, 21 to executives). These notices indicate potential impact and do not necessarily result in departure from the public service. The organization employs 11,220 people in the core public administration as of March 2025. Notifications were issued in Phase 3 of the Government of Canada's workforce reduction process.
