HPE VLAN Tagged query

I've taken over a poorly managed network which is suffering from issues - i've remediated the majority of issues including VOIP call complaints by implementing QOS / moving trunk ports from 100mb to 1000mb uplinks (fibre modules will be next) but have a VLAN question.

The network consists of 9 Edge switches, we have multiple VLANs but one VLAN in question is our server vlan, id 1. Every single client port, (400 end users) is carrying this vlan1 data as tagged down their switch ports.

They dont need to receive this data as they're clients but i'm curious to know would this be causing broadcast / network congestion across the network ?
