Agenda item

Report of the Town Clerk.

The Committee considered a report of the Town Clerk updating members on the progress made towards achieving the objectives set out in the Town Clerk’s Business Plan.

The Town Clerk advised the Committee that progress had been made in adding measurable KPIs to the Business Plan where practical, but this was not possible with all objectives. The Town Clerk also advised the Committee that a survey of all Members would be conducted in Autumn 2015, which it was hoped would allow the development of measurable KPIs for the Committee and Member Services Team.

Members discussed the figures for sickness absence and staff turnover. The Director of Human Resources suggested that it would be beneficial for the Human Resources Dashboard, which collected live data across the Corporation for all Human Resources issues, to be provided to the Committee for information on a quarterly basis.

The Director of Human Resources informed the Committee that the Corporation had recently been awarded the Silver Award for Investors In People. The Committee congratulated the Director of Human Resources on the achievement of this award.

RESOLVED – That the Committee notes the report
