Headcount and payroll

1. Registered headcount

It deals with people who are registered in the entity’s book: one person is considered as one employee no matter if its employment contract is a full-time or a part-time contract, and a fixed term or a permanent contract.

2. Used headcount

Full Time Equivalent Headcount working in an establishment with a Group Work contract (temporary staff, employed and paid by a staff agency, are excluded).

Calculation:

(+)

Registered headcount

(-)

Personnel not available (long-term sick leave, invalid, parental leave, etc…..) or exempted from work (ex.: end-of-career leave)

(-)

Group headcount registered in the entity, but used in other entities

(+)

Group headcount registered in an other subsidiary, but used in the entity under consideration

(-)

Part-time complement (time not worked by part time employees, converted into a number of full time staff)

Trainees are not taken into account.

3. Payroll

Corresponds to wages plus expenses, except social costs due to the restructuring of some Group’s entities (Resources guarantee and, end-of-career leave).
