4 Premises Blackpool contractor practical completion achieved on target on the 1st July. Fujitsu specific fit-out started, the project is on target to deliver these premises for September 2010. Blackpool move planning will commence in the near future, Fujitsu will be involving the consultation forum in the detail. Fujitsu are currently in the advanced stages of finalising arrangements for premises in Sheffield. Feedback from the 1 to 1’s has been considered as an integral part of this process in terms of requirements for this location. As soon as commercials are complete the exact location will be communicated. Norcross – knowledge transfer process has now been agreed with both HPES and the DWP. This process will confirm our technical requirements going forward which will inform the decision on whether testing remains at Norcross at Day 1 or moves to Blackpool. London - Fujitsu are in dialogue with the DWP around use of the current space on site for the Adelphi and Caxton House. These are progressing well.

5 Training Skills Profiles/Checklists Thank you for completing these
Being used to help us create bespoke training plans to meet your needs in line with the requirements of the service we are providing

6 Re-planning The transition of DWP’s Desktop Services from Hewlett Packard Enterprise Services (HPES) to Fujitsu will complete later than the originally planned date of September We have made good progress to date and expect to complete Transition either late 2010 or early 2011. The Department’s priority is to deliver the benefits of Fujitsu’s transformed Desktop Services solution (i.e. a predominantly “Thin Client” solution) with no disruption to service to its customers and staff.  This requires some flexibility in the handover of the Desktop Service between the two suppliers (HPES and Fujitsu). The additional time is required to ensure the smooth and seamless transition from HPES to Fujitsu. All the organisations involved continue to work closely together to achieve this.

11 Flex Fund Move to Fujitsu - Overview
It has proven difficult to get 100% clarity on the composition of the flex fund and the mechanism for its review The three items that Fujitsu generally provide ‘free’ should be removed from the current flex fund Full contractual holiday entitlement Life Assurance PHI (Long Term Disability) For private medical we give you an option continue current allowance or take entitlement at contractual level of cover and lose allowance The remainder of the flex fund continues Paid as a fixed cash allowance Remaining funding includes, where relevant, Dental, LTA/PHI change allowance Copyright 2009 Fujitsu Services Limited

12 Holidays in Detail You will be given your contractual entitlement, which, from 2010, is a fixed number of days, and the funding in your Flex fund removed Example: Currently an employees has entitlement to 25 days holiday (plus public holidays) plus Flex funding for three additional days. Going forward: The employee will be given full 28 days contractual entitlement The Flex fund will be reduced by the ‘cost’ of three days i.e. 3 x 1/260 x salary If you are eligible for Your Choices you will be able to buy or sell up to 5 days each year. Currently you elect to buy/sell before the start of the calendar year With Fujitsu you make that decision in July of that holiday year, when you should have a better idea of what you want to select. You then pay/receive cash for 12 month from August. So in July 2011 you will decide what holiday you wish to buy/sell for 2011 Copyright 2009 Fujitsu Services Limited

13 Life Assurance in Detail
You will be given life assurance at the level of 4 times your Reference Salary The Flex fund will be reduced by the current My Choices cost to purchase this level of life assurance There will be no opportunity to flex down the life assurance and take additional cash In future years cover will continue to be paid by Fujitsu – so no dependence on a review of the allowance Everyone eligible for Your Choices will be able to select additional life assurance Copyright 2009 Fujitsu Services Limited

14 PHI in Detail Permanent Health Insurance (PHI) and Long Term Absence (LTA) are the same thing, just different names PHI cover at the level equal to 50% of Reference Salary after 52 weeks absence: Payable to age 65, or return to work (not just 5 years) Indexed to inflation, max 5% Additional 5% of salary paid to pension to cover employee contribution Fujitsu pays employer pension, based on ‘full’ salary, not cash received There is no reduction to allow for state benefits (ESA) Company sick pay will be used to cover the period from 26 to 52 weeks where you would previously have had LTA The Flex Fund will be reduced by the current My Choices cost to purchase contractual LTA There will be no opportunity to flex down the cover and take additional cash In future years cover will continue to be paid by Fujitsu – so no dependence on a review of the allowance Copyright 2009 Fujitsu Services Limited

15 Private Medical in Detail
Fujitsu’s arrangement has one level of cover which is similar to Scheme 3 (the top scheme) and has no excess You will have a one time choice, two options: 1. Keep the allowance in Flex Fund: Continue to have the right to select cover through Your Choices Purchase costs are age related 2. Have your Flex Fund reduced by the current My Choices cost of your contractual entitlement and Fujitsu will give you that level of membership as a Company paid benefit: Able to modify cover through Your Choices If you flex down no cash will be given, but reduced tax cost In future years cover will continue to be paid by Fujitsu – so no dependence on a review of the allowance Copyright 2009 Fujitsu Services Limited

16 Dental Benefit Your funding remains in the flex fund
You decide whether to purchase cover through Your Choices

17 Summary of Solution A modified Flex Fund amount will be paid as a fixed Cash Allowance For life assurance, PHI and holiday: Fund reduced Similar package of benefits given Fujitsu takes risk of increased cost Medical One off choice, two options Keep the allowance or take company eligibility Continue to decide the level of benefit you want, via Your Choices Fujitsu takes risk of increased costs if company eligibility selected Remainder of Flex Fund including dental etc will be paid monthly as a fixed Cash Allowance, along with salary Copyright 2009 Fujitsu Services Limited

18 Health Screening A majority of employees have a right to a health screen once every few years Fujitsu cannot easily replicate this benefit Employees can purchase a screening in three ways Your Choices - Healthcare Cash Plan Your Choices - Health Screening BUPA Health Assessment One time settlement of £30 pa for those eligible Copyright 2009 Fujitsu Services Limited
