The number of staff from my Department who were on a career break in 2023 and 2024, is set out in the below table.

2023

Principal Officer 1
Administrative Officer 2
Executive Officer 0.5

2024

Principal Officer 1
HIgher Executive Officer 1
Administrative Officer 2
Executive Officer 0.5
Note: Some staff who were on a career break in 2023 were still on career break in 2024 and are therefore included under both years.

Please note that the data is representative of staff FTE (full time equivalent hours).

As my Department was established in August 2020, there are no staff members on a career break of more than five years and more than six years, at the end of August 2023 and August 2024.
