Update 647 15 March 2020	This has been sent to the admin contact for each organisation. Please pass it on to those who might need it at your organisation. Hello everyone, Here are some HOPS tools that might be useful in the Coronavirus situation regarding the potential isolation of over-70 year olds that might help you to plan ahead. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-51895873 Overview: We all know that the average age of a heritage volunteer is high, so isolation of over-70s is likely to have an impact on us. For context, there are 6871 current users in HOPS with DOBs recorded. Of these, 2119 are over 70. That's 30%. Generally there is a higher proportion of operational staff with DOBs recorded than non-operational, so that 30% is unfortunately probably weighted more towards the operational staff, rather than an even spread across the board. Rosters: Users who are over 70 by the date of the turn are now shown on construct rosters with a "[70+]" next to them. This enables you to easily see who might not be available to cover their turn. Only users with a DOB in HOPS can be monitored. This is turned on by default, if you don't want it to show you can switch if off in System > XYZ Settings. Tip: You can use your browser's Ctrl+F (or Cmd+F on a Mac) and search for all the instances of "70+" on the page. Reports: Report 34 shows users over 70 years of age: https://www.heritage-ops.org.uk/report.php?r=34 Permission 131 required. Report 22 shows users with no DOB in HOPS: https://www.heritage-ops.org.uk/report.php?r=22 Permission 131 required. Report 60 is a new report that has been added that allows you to see the numbers of staff over 70 in each department. This has links for each department row which show the names of staff affected. Only staff with DOBs in HOPS can be shown, of course. https://www.heritage-ops.org.uk/report.php?r=60 Permission 131 required (it isn't possible to split this by department, so if you want your department managers to take action then you'll need to copy/print the list for each dept and send manually) . If there are any queries please let me know. Many thanks Danny Scroggins

Hello everyone,

Here are some HOPS tools that might be useful in the Coronavirus situation regarding the potential isolation of over-70 year olds that might help you to plan ahead. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-51895873

Overview:

We all know that the average age of a heritage volunteer is high, so isolation of over-70s is likely to have an impact on us. For context, there are 6871 current users in HOPS with DOBs recorded. Of these, 2119 are over 70. That's 30%. Generally there is a higher proportion of operational staff with DOBs recorded than non-operational, so that 30% is unfortunately probably weighted more towards the operational staff, rather than an even spread across the board.

Rosters:

Users who are over 70 by the date of the turn are now shown on construct rosters with a "[70+]" next to them. This enables you to easily see who might not be available to cover their turn. Only users with a DOB in HOPS can be monitored.

This is turned on by default, if you don't want it to show you can switch if off in System > XYZ Settings.

Tip: You can use your browser's Ctrl+F (or Cmd+F on a Mac) and search for all the instances of "70+" on the page.

Reports:

Report 34 shows users over 70 years of age:

https://www.heritage-ops.org.uk/report.php?r=34

Permission 131 required.

Report 22 shows users with no DOB in HOPS:

https://www.heritage-ops.org.uk/report.php?r=22

Permission 131 required.

Report 60 is a new report that has been added that allows you to see the numbers of staff over 70 in each department. This has links for each department row which show the names of staff affected. Only staff with DOBs in HOPS can be shown, of course.

https://www.heritage-ops.org.uk/report.php?r=60

Permission 131 required (it isn't possible to split this by department, so if you want your department managers to take action then you'll need to copy/print the list for each dept and send manually) .
