Report of the Service Director HR detailing the Quarter 1 Employee Relations Statistics, attached.

The Committee considered the report of the Service Director Human Resources and Organisational Development detailing the Human Resources Statistics for Quarter 1 of 2019/20.

The Committee particularly noted the sickness data and the two case studies examples that had been provided following a request from the Committee.  The Committee remained concerned at the high levels of sickness in some service areas despite action plans in place and the comparison to the public sector average which was also significantly higher.

RESOLVED:

(i)  That the report be noted; and

(ii)  That the Service Directors be invited to attend future meetings of this Committee where their service area has a high sickness level above the public sector average starting with the Service Director of Transactions and Universal Services.
