NHS Ayrshire & Arran Equality and Diversity Workforce Data Report
Equality opportunities monitoring data 1.1 Data definition and plans for improvement The equal opportunities monitoring data are based upon staff employment with the exception of recruitment and disciplinary/grievances data which are based on headcount. Note bank staff are excluded from all data presented. Doctors in training are excluded from leaver data. As reflected within the monitoring charts that follow there is a proportion of employees for which where there is no detail recorded for specific protected characteristics. This appears in the charts as blank with the data being unknown / undisclosed. It is anticipated that the introduction of the Electronic Employee Support System (e:ess), during 2014, which will offer self service functionality for all staff, will provide both the opportunity and encouragement for staff to disclose data in relation to all equality strands. Pivotal to this will be ensuring robust communication for staff offering reassurance as to the reasons for collating and reporting this data. 1.2 Presentation of the data The data is presented in five distinct sections: overall workforce characteristics; training; leavers; recruitment; and disciplinary and grievances. 2.
