Make Sure Your Employees Know Where They Work

Feb. 14, 2011 - PRLog -- Stephen Smith, CEO of EMB Ltd, the leading enterprise and economic development company that delivers a range of business improvement services, including local access to the regional Business Link service is urging local businesses to make sure employees know the postcode of their place of work so that the Office for National Statistics can record it on their 2011 Census questionnaires in March.

Stephen Smith comments “Knowing their workplace postcode is a key piece of information that feeds into the overall picture of life in England and Wales.
Details of where people live, where they work and how they travel to their place of employment provide important statistics for transport planning and other strategic decisions.

The address and postcode of the employer is one of a number of questions contained in the census questionnaire about jobs, place of work, hours of employment and methods of travel to work.

Answers to these questions help to build a profile of the economy and provide the foundation for other labour market and economic statistics”.
