Workforce Statistics develop and maintain information, extracted from the Human Resource System, relating to staff employed within the Health and Social Care (HSC) in Northern Ireland. This data is provided by 5 Health and Social Care Trusts, the Ambulance Trust and other organisations within the HSC. Statistical information is used to assist the Department in matters of planning future workforce requirements and productivity. Various workforce statistics are produced on a regular basis and include an annual Workforce Census which gives information about numbers of staff employed by specialism and locations within Health and Social Care.

Also published is the Northern Ireland Health and Social Care (HSC) Workforce Vacancy Survey, now an established survey carried out on a biannual basis.
