The renormalization of non-Abelian gauge theories is studied in the background-field gauge by means of Ward-Slavnov identities derived from supergauge transformations and with use of 't Hooft and Veltman's renormalization. As a result, the counterterm depending on the background field only is shown to be (g/g$sub 0$$)$$sup 2$ (A)).
