Footnotes

  1. There were 250 FTE social workers whose new role was recorded as starting before they left their original role. These social workers have been excluded from the figures.
  2. Time between roles is calculated as the time in days (including weekends and bank holidays) between a social worker leaving a role and starting a new role. For example, if a leaver ended a role on a Friday and started new role on a Monday, the time between roles is calculated as 3 days. If a leaver started their new role on the same day that they left their previous role, time between roles calculated as zero days.
  3. There were 50 FTE social workers who left their role on 30 September 2021. These workers have been excluded from the figures, as in each case their time between roles would be calculated as 0 days.
  4. Components may not sum to totals due to rounding.
