Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many staff working for her Department are employed on a fixed-term contract; and how many of those contracts are due to end each month in the next 12 months.
DWP has 14,651 employees on Fixed Term Contracts as of 31 August 2021.
The full breakdown by month is not currently held centrally. We have recently extended a number of contracts and are in the process of updating our records on the HR and Payroll system.
