Agenda item

The Director of Human Resources to be heard.

The Director of Human Resources provided the Committee with an oral update on the Human Resources Dashboards.

The Director of Human Resources explained that a regular report had been submitted to the Establishment Committee which provided data on turnover, sickness absence etc. At the February meeting of the Committee, Members had asked if reporting of trends could be looked into and whether it would be possible to move to bi-annual reporting. The Director of Human Resources confirmed that a review had been taking place on how the dashboard had originally been built, and it was proposed that a further update be provided to the Committee in October once this work was finished. The Director of Human Resources further advised that the information from the Dashboards would still be available to Management.

In response to a Member’s question on whether other services committees could receive the relevant Dashboards for their areas, the Director of Human Resources confirmed that it would be helpful for the relevant committees to be provided with high level strategic information which demonstrated trends and underlying causes.

RESOLVED – That the Committee note the update.
