To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what the level of staff turnover in his Department was in each of the last five years; and what steps he is taking to reduce such turnover.
Justin Tomlinson
Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State (Department for Work and Pensions) (Disabled People)
Departmental turnover rates at the end of the last 5 financial years are summarised in the table below:
Year End | Annual Turnover (%) |
March 11 | 6.1 |
March 12 | 5.2 |
March 13 | 4.4 |
March 14 | 5.2 |
March 15 | 6.1 |
Turnover is an important lever in enabling the Department to achieve the overall efficiencies required over the last and current parliaments whilst continuing to deliver and transform the services the Department provides. DWP’s turnover rate is assessed to be manageable and sustainable, and is consistent with current planning assumptions.
