Human resources

UNICEF’s human resources strategy has links to the UN reform

process, which promotes a more integrated United Nations

through simplified management.

High on the agenda has been aligning human resources activities

with the objectives of the Medium Term Strategic Plan 2006–

2009 and with UNICEF’s aim of making the maximum

contribution towards achievement of the Millennium

Development Goals.

In 2005 UNICEF invested in technological systems – such as

SAP-HR for payroll and human resources management and

administration – that allow resources to be moved from the

important but more routine transactional personnel processes

towards the achievement of more strategic HR developmental

issues.

Management Titbit

In September 1996, Executive Director instructed Regional

Directors and Representatives to give attention to the

improvement of Human Resource Management through

the development of Office.

The Executive Directive also committed UNICEF to

providing training for ‘mastering the basic skills of sound

management’ and for leadership development.

From 1996-1999, management training was provided in 96

Country Offices. In 1999, a senior leadership course was

developed and a model for leadership development and

competencies was developed. Senior Leaders courses

have evolved since that time and are still

being provided.

In 2002, UNICEF adopted a new strategic plan, the

Medium Term Strategic Plan 2002-2005.

This established revised priorities and organizational

strategies for the organization. The Executive Director

launched a consultation and action planning exercise

A wide range of UNICEF stakeholders met in Brasilia,

Brazil in March 2002 for a consultation with three core

objectives;

a) to develop a clear strategic vision for the next five

years,

b) to specify concrete objectives to realize new

strategic HR vision

c) and to identify strategic actions to

achieve the HR objectives.

•

The ‘Brasilia Change Plan” included five core

elements:

1. Development and implementation of a corporate strategic HR

planning function

2. Redesign of the recruitment, selection, and placement process to

get the right people to the right place at the right time.

3. Strengthening of career and staff development within the context

of a tripartite

partnership between individual staff, supervisors and the

organization.

• 4. Enhancement of results-based performance management to

complement

• organizational emphasis on results-based programming and

management.

• 5. Mainstreaming of staff wellbeing into human resources

management (HRM) to promote dedication, commitment, and

optimum output while helping staff to maintain a healthy

work/personal life balance
