Recommendations

People Count provided data for comparison in planning our HR review. It identified areas where data was not available internally.

Liz Hunter, HR Manager, Childhood First

The beauty of People Count is that it provides benchmarking information for our organisation on HR issues that is not available through any other route. Because it is relevant to what we do, we can use it to improve our performance.

John Bartle, Nottingham Community Housing Association

The feedback and useful information from People Count has enabled us to focus on key business issues for the organisation.

Karen Croan, HR Director, Quarriers

I found that comparison with our peers shed a different light on certain aspects of our benchmarking data. It enabled us to see exactly how we compared to similar care organisations and was very useful in identifying where we differed and what we needed to concentrate on.

Sue Chand, Assistant Director (Human Resources), St Annes Community Services

Voluntary organisations can benefit from People Count by comparing their HR performance with those of their peers. This allows them to share good practice as well as the opportunity to develop a more strategic approach to human resource management.
