Summary
Provisional monthly figures for headcount, full time equivalent, role count and turnover of NHS Hospital and Community Health Service (HCHS) staff groups working in England (excluding primary care staff).
This is the eighth in a series of quarterly supplemental publications. The aim is to provide additional granularity at organisational level, explore the data to indicate data quality issues and to also highlight areas of interest.
The additional information available this month includes:
Time series of workforce numbers (headcount and FTE) by organisation
Medical grades by organisation
Non-medical staff groups by organisation
Turnover by organisation
- Time series of annual turnover at national and organisation level
Time series of quarterly turnover at national and regional level
Redundancy figures at a National level by staff group. This will include voluntary redundancies for the first time alongside compulsory redundancies
The aim is to provide additional granularity at organisational level, explore the data to indicate data quality issues and to also highlight areas of interest.
As expected with provisional, statistics, some figures may be revised from month to month as issues are uncovered and resolved. No refreshes of the provisional data will take place either as part of the regular publication process, or where minor enhancements to the methodology have an insignificant impact on the figures at a national level. However, the provisional status allows for this to occur if it is determined that a refresh of data is required subsequent to initial release. Where a refresh of data occurs, it will be clearly documented in the publications.
The HSCIC welcomes feedback on the methodology and tables within this publication. Please contact the HSCIC with your comments and suggestions, clearly stating 'Monthly HCHS Workforce' as the subject heading, via [email protected] or 0845 300 6016.
The HSCIC intends publishing these figures monthly.
Highlights
- Provisional status.
- This is the latest publication of a monthly series of the Hospital and Community Health Services (HCHS) workforce statistics using data from the Electronic Staff Record (ESR).
- This is the eighth in a series of quarterly supplemental publications.
- The figures do not include data for GPs and practice staff.
- From December 2012 and monthly thereafter we will be publishing an extra set of tables based on a new mandatory collection from Strategic Health Authorities that collects additional Health Visitor workforce information. The collection includes those organisations that do not use ESR such as local authorities and social enterprises not currently captured in the existing monthly workforce publication. The publication of these extra Health Visitor focused numbers will exist as long as the specific collection exists
