10. EMPLOYMENT (at this site)
Please provide estimates of the sawmill’s employment, expressed as Full-Time Equivalents (FTEs) for each of the categories shown below.

Each category should be split between direct employees (those for whom you are responsible for paying wages and National Insurance contributions) and other employment (any others undertaking work for you, including contractors and their employees).

To express employment as FTEs, please include a rough estimate of time for those who work a part-year for the sawmill. For example, count a full-time employee working slightly more than half the time for the sawmill as 0.6, or an employee who works part-time for 4 months as 0.2.

Please exclude any employment on harvesting, and any employment at the site not directly related to the sawmill (e.g. exclude work producing pallets or other wood products from sawnwood). Haulage employment should only include direct employees.
