Bus/Financial - Human Resources | | English term or phrase: exit data | I am translating minutes taken at a meeting of the European Works Council of a large multinational.
I am not sure about the meaning of the phrase ,,exit data’’ in the context below.
Does that phrase refer to ,,data collected with an exit questionnaire’’ - a survey of staff leaving the company?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
‘’John then discussed the headcount evolution. 2100 employees have left through a combination of restructuring, attrition and divestiture. He gave a business by business breakdown of employment reductions. Peter gave figures for commercial refrigeration in EMEA.
Q. Is this data updated and if so when? We have given our national reports and when I listened to colleagues and what they have to say, the information is not always consistent.
A. It is as of December 31, 2009. This is exit data and is not always synchronized. There could be small differences as far as timing but not with the overall numbers. We can look into what you are referring to. Temporary employees are not included.’’ |
| | | English translation:information about staff members as they leave the company | Explanation:
This usually refers, not specifically to questionnaires filled in by staff leaving, but rather to all their personal data, which are finally updated and then archived when the staff member leaves; things like number of years' service, leaving salary... — all the various details that enable the employer to 'close the account' so to speak on that particular employee.
Unlike data about current employees, this sort of information is not always a priority for updating, hence why there might be some discrepancies between figures obtained from different sources (database synchronization, etc.) |
