Do staff lost as a result of housing stock transfer count as leavers for the purposes of this PI?
Local Authorities should exclude staff who transfer from an LA to a new housing association as a result of housing stock transfer. This only relates to those staff directly transferred to the new organisation. Anyone who has retired or leaves the employment of the authority because of the stock transfer should be counted as leaving in the normal way, as should anyone who left the authority to take up a new job at the new organisation rather than transferring. Also anyone seconded to the new organisation should not be counted as a leaver. It is important that those transferring are excluded consistently from both the numerator and the denominator of this indicator.
