Absenteeism data

  • Absenteeism rate (after adjustment for long-term illness): 3.6% (which is consistent with the ‘Verbaan norm’, the average absenteeism rate for similar professions)
  • Absenteeism frequency: 1.73

Size of the organization on 1 January 2013

  • 123.3 FTE (including University Museum)
  • 116.7 FTE (excluding University Museum)
  • All employees are in permanent employment or with the prospect of a permanent contract.
  • Room supervisors are not included in the figures.

Mobility

One of the ways in which the Library shapes its mobility policy is by participating in the University of Groningen Talent Travel programme, a programme for the sustainable employability of the Support and Management Staff.

  • Two managers participated in the Ja-maar show (‘Yes-but show’, awareness for managers).
  • Two library staff members participated in the Talent Event (awareness and workshops for staff members).
  • Sixteen staff members completed the Talent Scan (about discovering their talents and deployability). If they wanted, they could discuss the scan results with a careers advisor.
  • Talent On Tour: the Library has employed one staff member on a temporary basis for this project.

Training courses

Collaboration on projects takes place more and more within the Library.

  • In 2012, six staff members followed the Prince 2 Foundation course.
  • Over the summer, a large number of employees were given the opportunity to participate in two English proficiency workshops (for desk staff and public services staff).
