Staff Turnover
The City’s employee turnover is relatively consistent
on a year to year basis and excludes casual
employees. The slight increase in turnover from
2013 could potentially be attributed to a change
in the nature of contracts for casuals within
Aquamotion/Kingsway. The City undertook an
audit of all casual employees who had been
regularly rostered for similar hours over a 12 month
period, and in accordance with good industrial
relations principles, the City instead offered these
casual employees the option to transfer to parttime
permanent contracts to offer improved
security. The transient nature of the recreation
workforce who are now categorised permanent
part time would therefore now be included in the
turnover statistics, whereas casuals were not.
