A census sent out to all government workers is wider reaching than simply identifying cost cutting advice.  

Thousands of public servants across all agencies have been asked in a census to identify taxpayer value in their work and any changes needed, with results expected in July.  

The survey's done every five years. 

Public Service Minister Judith Collins told Mike Hosking how to save money is just one of many focuses.  

She says it also asks about concerns people have around any unacceptable sexual harassment and bullying, adding it's therefore a two-way exercise.
