HR Effectiveness Model and Toolkit (Ireland)

HR Effectiveness Model & Toolkit
HR Effectiveness Planning and Execution for HR Managers in the Health Service
Issued : Sunday 30 October, 2005
Brief Description
The link between HR activity and organisation performance has in the past been difficult to demonstrate convincingly, due largely to deficiencies in our approaches and tools in measuring 'soft' HR processes and outcomes.
The development and improvement of reliable measurement methods will facilitate more effective and relevant benchmarking of practices between comparator organisations within and outside the Irish health service.
Improved measurement of human resources activity will also lead to more rational and productive choices about managing people and allocating scarce resources more effectively.
This HR Effectiveness Model and Toolkit aims to provide
a practical and consistent methodology for HR effectiveness planning and measurement capable of being adopted across the Irish health sector for the majority of HR initiatives
initial sample data collection and measurement tools that will assist each stage of the data collection and evaluation process.
