Decision:

That the Committee endorses the Employment and Workforce Information Report for Quarter 2 2019/20 to 30 September 2019.

Minutes:

The Senior Manager, Human Resources & Organisational Development presented the workforce information report on Quarter 2 of 2019/20 which focussed on organisational performance and trends.

 

On attendance, the team was continuing to work closely with services to improve figures.  Following analysis of reasons for absence, the addition of a category for bereavement would provide more clarity and help to target appropriate support for those individuals.  Good progress was reported on the completion of appraisals where the new appraisal model had generated positive initial feedback and would be shared with Members, once finalised.  Other positive outcomes were a reduction in the number of active agency worker placements and the implementation of a new pay model.

 

Councillor Cunningham welcomed the changes to the categorisation of absence.  He moved the recommendation and was seconded by Councillor Bateman.

 

RESOLVED:

 

That the Committee endorses the Employment and Workforce Information Report for Quarter 2 2019/20 to 30 September 2019.
