We record all incidents where the 2012 Child Maintenance Service has not been available for staff. Over the last six months, this has been:
Month | Minutes lost | Hours Lost | % Availability |
March | 1230 | 20.5 | 97.73% |
April | 0 | 0 | 100.00% |
May | 103 | 1.72 | 99.70% |
June | 30 | 0.5 | 99.93% |
July | 30 | 0.5 | 99.91% |
Aug | 180 | 3 | 99.62% |
Although we manage periods of reduced performance as incidents, there is no formal measure for degraded service as these may impact sub-sets of system users differently.
