What is People Count?

People Count is the annual study for the not-for-profit sector, enabling you to compare your key HR metrics with not-for-profit benchmark data, and make solid evidence-based strategic decisions. Topics covered include:

Benchmark your HR and workforce metrics against UK not-for-profit organisations working in housing, mental health, social care and other areas. See exactly who you can benchmark against.

“People Count is a must-have for our HR team. It allows us to compare ourselves and our HR metrics to other relevant organisations and gives us the confidence we need to make decisions on our policies and renumeration packages for staff”

Alex Taylor, HR Manager (Systems, Data and Support), Crisis U.K
