Revenue and Customs: Labour Turnover
The question
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, to please provide staff turnover figures for the Wealthy Team in HMRC for each financial year 2017/18 to 2024/25.
Answered by Dan Tomlinson
The table below provides the turnover rate, based on average Full Time Equivalent (FTE), for each year from 2021/22. Staff data is retained only for as long as it is required to meet its intended business purpose, after which it is securely deleted in line with HMRC’s data retention policy. The number of leavers includes staff leaving HMRC, moves to other Customer Compliance Group (CCG) directorates, moves outside of CCG and leavers within Wealthy and Mid-sized Business Compliance (WMBC). Tax year 21/22 includes moves to COVID schemes, whilst 24/25 included moves to other teams in Wealthy and Mid-sized Business Compliance, working on wealthy related risk.
Tax Year | Total Leavers | Average FTE over year | Turnover rate |
2021/22 | 258 | 856 | 30% |
2022/23 | 156 | 951 | 16% |
2023/24 | 131 | 988 | 13% |
2024/25 | 166 | 898 | 18% |
