Metrics

Below is a breakdown of KMPT’s WDES and action plan:

Metric 1

The proportion of staff who have recorded a disability is currently 7.33%, however staff survey indicates 31.6% staff have a disability. KMPT has 19.89% of staff declaring an unknown status for disability which needs to be addressed to reduce the percentage of unknown declarations to either disabled or not disabled.

Metric 2

Relative likelihood of staff being appointed from shortlisting across all posts.

Non-disabled staff are 1.16 times more likely to be appointed from shortlisting than those staff with disabilities, however there has been a decrease from last year which was 1.42, therefore disabled staff are less likely to be recruited into KMPT than non-disabled staff.

Metric 3

Relative likelihood of staff entering the formal capability process

Disabled staff are 0.05 times more likely than non-disabled staff to enter a formal capability process compared to 1.3 the previous year.

There is some variation from what has have been reported in previous years due to national changes which now include data for ‘on the grounds of ill health’. A figure above 1.00 indicates that disabled staff are more likely than non-disabled staff to enter the formal capability process.
