Employing seasonal or temporary staff?
Check your pension duties

Businesses hiring seasonal summer staff should check their workplace pension automatic enrolment duties.

If you employ seasonal or temporary staff, you must assess them individually every time you pay them. This includes staff who work for you for a few days, a few weeks or several months.

Your assessment of who to put into a pension scheme may take more time and effort, as you will need to take into account:

that they may only work for you for short periods of time
that they may join and leave your employment in the middle of pay periods
that their earnings and hours vary

Use the Pensions Regulator’s seasonal and temporary staff tool, to work out what legal duties will apply to you and what you'll need to do.

STEAM Data Survey for Tourism – 2025 Figures

Calling the following businesses in Conwy County - attractions, self catering businesses, hotels and guest houses, camping and caravan sites

We are currently collecting tourism data from 2025.

Please help us by completing the STEAM survey - more details below

Tourism data across the UK is collated using a standard method (STEAM) so that we can compare and contrast destinations.

Collecting up to date tourism data is so important for Conwy. Tourism is a priority sector for the County, supporting over 12,000 jobs and contributing £1.3bn to the local economy. These statistics are collected via STEAM and used to attract and inform investors to the county, as well as supporting funding bids to external funding organisations. This data is therefore vital to securing investment and futureproofing the tourism industry in Conwy County.

The data we ask for is only based around visitor numbers, and we do not ask or look for any commercially sensitive information from you.

The data you supply will be compiled into a county return. Your individual data will not be shared with any other organisation.

You can read more about the STEAM model here:
