As detailed in the recommendation.

The Cabinet Member for Corporate Management introduced the report which provided an update for the third quarter 2013/14 on establishment, headcount, agency, early retirements, turnover, diversity and absence.

Members welcomed the savings achieved on use of agency workers and the significant reduction in staff absence from the comparative quarter last year.  The Head of Human Resources and Organisational Development referred to the improved trend for absence levels compared to the last two quarters and the continuing programme of attendance management reporting and action planning being undertaken across each Directorate.  Members also noted that there had been an increase in the number of staff who had attained 100% attendance when compared to the same quarter last year.

RESOLVED:

That the Workforce Information Report for quarter three for 2013/14 be noted.
