The Policy Studies Institute has announced the placement of support staff on December 30, 2022. PSI has been working on placing support staff for the past two months in accordance with government guidelines.
Support Staff are an important part of any institution as they provide essential services required for the daily operations of an organization. Their presence and contribution can greatly improve the efficiency and effectiveness of an institution. For this reason, these support staff must be assigned to the right functions and departments to maximize their potential and make the best use of their skills.
Government guidance on the placement of support staff states that they should be placed in functions that match their expertise, qualifications, and the needs of the institute This is to ensure that both the institute and the support can benefit from the assignment. Over the past few months, PSI has conducted a thorough job analysis to determine which positions need to be filled, what experience and qualifications are required for each position, and what specializations or skills are needed for each position. Upon completion of the job analysis, the committee assigned by PSI selected and placed appropriate support staff for each position, taking into account current skills, experience, education, and other qualifications.
The manager of the Main Executive Management Office of PSI, Mr. Nigatu, said that PSI has conducted a thorough job analysis, selects suitable staff and will provide orientation and training activities, and complies with legal obligations to ensure that support staff are equipped for success and have the best chance of making a valuable contribution to the Institute. This includes complying with relevant laws and regulations, equal opportunity policies, and creating a work environment that is free from discrimination and harassment. It also includes providing these employees with regular opportunities for professional development and career advancement.
Mr. Nigatu said that PSI should strive to provide the support staff with a workplace culture that values their diverse backgrounds and encourages them to reach their full potential. He added that promoting diversity, supporting an inclusive culture, and enabling flexible work arrangements are important elements in creating a positive work environment for support staff. PSI also takes into account the safety and well-being of its staff by ensuring that all necessary safety measures are taken, such as safe workplaces, proper hazard identification and control, and adequate risk management.
Mr. Nigatu also noted that PSI can build a strong and engaged workforce by providing clear and timely notifications of new job placements. Notification of job placements is a great way to increase staff productivity, reduce turnover and create a positive work environment. By providing early notification of job placements, the support staff will have up-to-date information about assigned positions and institutional changes; it also allows teams to stay cohesive and work effectively.
Overall, the staff placement notifications PSI announced on December 30, 2022, offer numerous benefits to the Institute. By providing timely and relevant information on the jobs' placement, PSI can leverage available talent, reduce staff turnover and create a more positive work environment. Ultimately, this can help ensure that PSI is well-equipped to achieve its short- and long-term goals.
