Contingent labour

Release date:
25 November 2019

You asked

I would like to request the following information:

  1. How you resource non-permanent staff i.e. contractors, consultants and agency staff
  2. A list of frameworks used to secure these resources

We said

​Thank you for your request.

We source contingent labour from a variety of different frameworks that are available to ONS. We categorise our contingent workers as agency workers, consultants, contractors and service workers (who are part of service contracts).

We source from DOS, Gcloud, NMNC and the NMNC replacement RM6160. We also use COMIT in the IT space for some niche requirements.
