French term or phrase: centre hospitalier public de 600 agents

This refers to an institution in Paris. My query is, assuming the centre hospitalier is a state-run hospital (or is it a group of hospitals?), what are the '600 agents'?

xxxQueenMab

employees

Explanation:
I think it is plainly 600 employees and you are right it is a public (state-run) hospital
