Which government? Which world?
I'd assume in almost every country, their federal government is the biggest employer, but that'd actually be interesting data to try and find.
The world's three largest employers are apparently the US DOD, the PLA of China, and ... Walmart.
Pretty much every government's budget is a significant fraction of a country's GDP. By significant I mean 30% or higher.
