Etymology

The word 'staffer' originates from the word 'staff,' which dates back to the Middle English 'staf,' meaning a stick or rod, derived from the Old English 'stรฆf.' The term evolved to refer to a group of individuals in an organization who work together as a unit, or 'staff.' The suffix '-er' is used in English to indicate a person who performs a specific action or is associated with a specific role. Therefore, a 'staffer' is literally a person who is part of a staff. The usage of 'staffer' became more prominent in the 20th century, particularly in the context of politics and organizational roles, encapsulating individuals who support management or leadership teams. Today, it encompasses a broad range of positions across various sectors, including business, government, and non-profits.
