  1. Relief Staff Group Consultation Meeting

  2. Why are we changing • Continued efforts to increase zero hour staff has not been as successful as planned. • Introduction of relief spreadsheet to move people around the business to be more efficient. • Turnover of relief/bank staff within Childbase is 34% (103 leavers). • Within 3 months, (Oct, Nov, Dec 2013) 20 relief staff left us. • Hours lost through SMILE – Over 1000 hours. Increased requirement for us to fill these gaps moving forward. • Agency spend would cease. We would not incur any future charges at the current run rate of £14.25 per hour (level 2). • Based on what we are currently spending on agency £124,911 (Nov – Jan) we used 8815 hours; under the new contract we would receive an additional 4417 hours for the same cost. • This equates to 117 weeks of free relief staff (2.4 practitioners for 1 week in every setting)

  3. CONSULTATION • Kangacrew will supply all relief staff to Childbase in a partnership contract. • Childbase will no longer seek to employ future relief staff. • All staff currently contracted to work less than 10 hours per month will TUPE to Kangacrew. • Relief staff will continue to be offered work within Childbase and remain an integral part of our business.

  4. Our people matter …. • Our commitment to people remains a core part of our business. • We recognise this announcement and consultation has an impact on our people and it is our intention to ensure a smooth transition for you all. • The transferred relief staff remain an integral part of our business. • Transferring staff will retain all existing contractual terms and conditions. • Transferring staff will also have the added benefit of accessing other work when this is not available through Childbase.

  5. What does this mean for your employment? • We are obliged to consult with you because it is a change to your contract. • Consultation started when you received a letter from me and will consist of: • Letters • FAQ's • Group consultation meetings • 1:1's • Email/telephone support from HR • Support from management teams and partnership council

  6. What is TUPE? • TUPE stands for Transfer of Undertakings and Protection of Employment • Regulations designed to safeguard your employment terms and conditions when service provisions change. • This means, because Kangacrew will now service our relief needs, the provision has changed and you are protected by TUPE • Your existing terms and conditions protected • You will become an employee of Kangacrew • You may be given opportunity of more hours – a choice • Aim to complete consultation and for transfer to be effective 16th June 2014

  7. Communication • We will write to you by post regularly – please keep your contact details up to date on MyBase • Information will regularly be updated on the Intranet under People Matter • Contact Sheet – you can contact any of us • You can tell us what you think, ask questions and put forward ideas by contacting anyone on the Contact Sheet or emailing hrteam@childbase.com • You can request a 1:1 with HR over the telephone or face to face

  8. What if I don’t want to transfer? • TUPE is designed to ensure you’re protected, therefore during this process your position will still exist and will move to Kangacrew • If you do not want to transfer, you need to ‘object’ to TUPE, which means you will be resigning from your position. • We urge you to come and talk to us before taking this decision so that we can support you

People matter to Kangacrew • The transferred practitioners will be offered work in the Nurseries they have transferred from as a priority. • Options to work in a wider geographical spread should they wish to increase hours worked / increase potential earnings. • Opportunity to have work outside of the Childbase group as and when work is not available within Childbase. • Reward and recognition incentive implemented for all practitioners. • Practitioner of the month scheme. • Referral scheme. Lead the way, step into Childcare

What can Kangacrew offer? • An understanding of the standards and expectations that Childbaserequire. • All new pracitioners recruited for this contract will be fully inducted to service the contract in line with the TOR set out by Childbase; this will include the Oli Training Childbase currently provide. • Opportunity for practitioners to earn a higher wage due to more hours being offered. • Kangacrew will help retain the transferred staff by offering work at times when Childbase has no requirement. • Continuity of quality and standards amongst our practitioners.
