The implementation of this authority is
anticipated to receive approval in the coming months, with operations set to
commence at the start of the next year, a local media outlet, reported.
Approval and reforms
At a gathering held at Al-Husseiniya
Palace, His Majesty
King Abdullah, Crown Prince Hussein, Prime Minister Bisher
Al-Khasawneh, and relevant officials came together to discuss the establishment
of the authority.
During the meeting, it was highlighted
that the formation of the authority would necessitate an amendment to the
current
Civil Service Bureau system.
The objective of this amendment is to
safeguard acquired rights while introducing changes to the performance
evaluation, promotion, and incentives system. Furthermore, a new human
resources management system will be introduced, specifically targeting new
appointees.
Focus on inventory and training
Shraideh presented an overview of the
current status of the Civil Service Bureau's inventory, along with proposals
for inventory management during the transitional phase.
Additionally, he emphasized the future vision
for the Institute of Public Administration, which aims to enhance its role and
uplift the capabilities of public sector employees. The expansion of
qualitative training programs was also discussed as part of this vision.
Shraideh outlined the human resources
strategy, which seeks to centralize the planning of human resources policies
while decentralizing their implementation. The strategy also prioritizes
leadership and executive departments within the civil service.
Approved by the Civil Service Council and
awaiting endorsement from the Council of Ministers, this strategy will rely on
functional competencies as the foundation for managing the human resources
system.
Furthermore, it aims to enhance digital
transformation efforts to create an institutional culture that promotes
excellence, innovation, and citizen service.
