Guide for use:![]() | Medical officers employed or engaged by the organisation who are not registered to practice psychiatry under the relevant Australian registration board nor is a recognised trainee within the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists postgraduate training program. The average is to be calculated from pay period figures. The length of the pay period is assumed to be a fortnight. Data on full-time equivalent staffing numbers by category should be consistent with data on salaries and wages by staffing category. If the full-time equivalent for contract staff is not collected then salaries for those contract staff should be included in other recurrent expenditure metadata items. Where staff provide services to more than one establishment, full-time equivalent staff members should be apportioned between all establishments to which services are provided on the basis of hours paid for in each (salary costs should be apportioned on the same basis). | |||||||||
Comments:![]() | This metadata item was amended during 1996-97. Until then, both average and end of year counts of full-time equivalent staff were included, and the end of year counts used as surrogates for the average counts if the latter were unavailable. The average count is more useful for accurate analysis of staffing inputs for establishment outputs and for assessments and comparisons of labour costs. | |||||||||
