About us
The Statistics Department serves the people of Zug, and political, administrative, business, and scientific communities. The Department is administratively affiliated to the General Secretariat of the Department of Health.
We, at the Statistics Department, coordinate the statistical work of the Canton of Zug and the work between its municipalities and the Federal Statistical Office. We assist the cantonal and municipal offices in collecting, processing and analyzing data. We also release statistical data to the public and share it with the people of Zug. Our publications include the brochure ‘Zug in Figures’, which is published in co-operation with Zuger Kantonalbank. In our newsletter, we share the latest data from public statistics several times a year.
We provide statistical data on all relevant topics to the public, politicians, and the administration. Our activities are based on the principles of the ‘Charter of Swiss Official Statistics’. These principles include keeping content up-to-date and the data protection of natural and legal persons. We are professionally independent within the meaning of the Charter. The analysis and distribution of statistical information is impartial, and the methodology used is disclosed clearly.
We are also responsible for executing the ‘Open Government Data Strategy for the City and Canton of Zug (OGD)’. As the ‘OGD Competence Center’, we coordinate all efforts related to open government data.
