The information sought by the Deputy in relation to sick leave for the years 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 is set out in the table below. Uncertified sick leave is now classed as self certified sick leave.
Year | Total self certified sick days | Average self certified sick days per employee | Total certified sick days | Average certified sick days per employee | Total sick days (certified and self certified) | Average sick days (certified and self certified) per employee |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
2009 | 2005 | 0.86 | 22394 | 9.5 | 24399 | 10.4 |
2010 | 1595 | 0.75 | 17623 | 8.3 | 19218 | 9.1 |
2011 | 1654 | 0.74 | 17060 | 7.5 | 18714 | 8.2 |
2012 | 1348 | 0.64 | 18010 | 8.5 | 19358 | 9.1 |
It is not possible to provide median details as to do so would require the allocation of a disproportionate and inordinate amount of staff time and resources.
