There are 495 agency workers who are fully furloughed. Therefore, of the overall agency headcount we have 38.3% of the overall agency headcount either fully/part furloughed and the fully furloughed equates to 20.77% of the overall agency headcount are furloughed.</p><p> </p><p>We do not distinguish between our agency and directly employed staff in our data collection so the agency figures for working from home and attending the workplace are included in the overall figures provided above</p><p> </p><p>We have also provided a breakdown of staff working from home by grade, however, we are not able to provide the same breakdown by grade for those attending the workplace. This is because our data collection is by exception rather than on all staff; i.e. we record the details of staff who fall into specific categories of work such as working from home or absence and then calculate the number attending the workplace by deducting all of the various work and absence categories from our overall headcount figure.

Prior to this there were multiple business units that held their own people data. We are unable to obtain agency data from HR systems prior to 2016. As with any large data system, there are also likely to be some inaccuracies.</p><p> </p><p>Over the period of Reform, we expect the shape and size of the organisation to change. As part of this we are reducing our staffing levels and expect the future skills of our people to change. The HMCTS workforce strategy during this period is to increase the capability of our staff, whilst simultaneously increasing our workforce flexibility through the increased usage of contingent labour. This is in order to reduce redundancy costs and protect the jobs of longer serving, permanent staff. The required staffing level needed across each of our HMCTS sites is monitored closely, and proactive recruitment undertaken to ensure these levels are maintained.</p> answering member constituency Charnwood answering member printed Edward Argar question first answered 10/07/2019 16:50:41 answering member 4362 label Biography information for Edward Argar

Therefore the department has withdrawn the procurement for an external provider.</p><br /><p>Compliance and enforcement staff currently employed by HM Courts and Tribunals Service will not be transferred to an external provider.</p> answering member constituency North West Cambridgeshire answering member printed Mr Shailesh Vara grouped question UIN 11796 question first answered 19/10/2015 16:41:28 answering member 1496 label Biography information for Shailesh Vara
