We’ve previously told you that we’d be completing a future data cleanse activity and that we’d provide a further update once there’d been any advancements with the project. We can confirm that the development work is progressing well for this exercise, which will be used to rectify any service and/or salary gaps dating back to April 2014.

Once development is complete a pilot will be set up with employers across all sectors to test the system, which will be similar to the current Monthly Data Collection Checklist. The pilot will look at how the system works and provide guidance on the timescale needed to complete any required updates.

We’ll share details of when the pilot will start and how to join in the coming months.
