We give a simple formula for the essential dimension of a finite pseudo-reflection group at a prime p and determine the absolute essential dimension for most irreducible pseudo-reflection groups. We also study the 'poor man's essential dimension' of an arbitrary finite group, an intermediate notion between the absolute essential dimension and the essential dimension at a prime p.
