That the Committee notes the year-end Workforce Information Report for 2023/24.

The Corporate Manager, People and Organisational Development presented a report comprising organisational workforce data and analysis for the 2023/24 year-end position.

During the debate, the Corporate Manager clarified the employee absence rate and agreed to provide a follow-up response on whether full-time equivalent calculations and rates related to the number of employees or posts available.  She would also provide information on the calculation used to identify days lost and would liaise with the Corporate Finance Manager to collate establishment report data on days lost due to unfilled posts across portfolios to share with the Committee.  In response to comments, she agreed to include commentary in future reports where targets on attendance and agency spend were not achieved, along with reference to the performance appraisal process.

The recommendation in the report was supported.

RESOLVED:

That the Committee notes the year-end Workforce Information Report for 2023/24.
