NMDS-SC User Tools

The Starters and Leavers Log is an optional tool designed to assist you in keeping a log of the starters and leavers at your establishment. Its purpose is to automatically calculate, as required by the NMDS-SC, how many workers (by job role) started and left your establishment in the previous 12 months. This will save time and increase accuracy when completing or updating the establishment section of the NMDS-SC. Please note that the spreadsheet has been produced to facilitate NMDS-SC completion, however it does not automatically populate the NMDS-SC.
