The challenge
•
•
•
Economic downturn and restructuring; unclear and unsecure future
Increasing general unemployment (7,5 %; 15 % for youth)
Flexible, but dual labour market
•
•
•
•
Good performing central PA (OECD and SCP studies)
Continues reform process in central PA since decades
Continues financial cuts  reduction of employees in central PA
New cabinet: reform, new cuts and other ambitions until end of 2018/20 (more positions
on lower level, more handicapped employees, more women in high positions)
Challenge:
- How to solve current problems and at the same time prevent future ones
- How to invest in sustainability, quality and flexibility in times of budget cuts
- How to combine short term restrictions with long term needs

Ageing workforce

IT and e-Gov
Changing SD & ‘Poldermodel’
Internationalisation
Blurring boarders between

Composition and size of

Decrease central PA
Qualitative shortages
Big changes with massive impact.. .. demands a prepared and pro-acting PA

BZK/OPR/HKU/March 2013
Is this needed?
The only security is
no security at all and
permanent change
Increasing importance
of knowledge and
relationship
We have to (anti cyclical) anticipate & invest in the
adaptability, flexibility and quality of the central PA

Summary HR Strategy 2020
Towards a sustainable central public administration in NL

To be an attractive and societal responsible employer investment in people is crucial.

Influence on top level makes knowledge most important in content and in relationships.

To secure a competent & divers workforce in the future, anti cyclic recruitment is needed

Lifelong learning & development is obligatory for management and employees.

Sustainable employability on the labour market will increase adaptability & flexibility

Regular mobility within networks and chains is a start to make it normal for everybody

Modernisation of labour contracts, -relations and –conditions is needed for future

Harmonisation if possible and differentiation (e.g. types of work) where needed

Needs other way of steering and leadership on all management levels
 From job security to work security
15
BZK/OPR/HKU/March 2013
Lessons learned

Involve from the beginning the top level /SG’s for guidance and commitment

Use strategic experts in the core business of the ministries

Bring senior management HR, top management and strategic experts together and help
them understand each others language and point of view

Be very clear where and when you need a process or a project: workforce planning,
started as a project with HR experts, failed to formulate a HR strategy. A broaden process
was needed to do so and to raise urgency for workforce planning

Don’t put effort in making nice books with scenario’s, visions and dreams but invest in a
flexible, adaptable presentation as a living document to be used by everybody and easily
adjusted to new situations

Make a shared strategic agenda for short and long term, formulate projects/programmes
to implement and let different stakeholders take over responsibility for common results

HR strategy should be linked to the core business and other parts of operational
management (integrated approach)
16
BZK/OPR/HKU/March 2013
To become a (better)
strategic partner
•
Know and understand the core business + critical performance indicators
•
Be able to analyse quantitative and qualitative information in order to forecast and point out
risks, problems, alternatives for short and long term (evidence based)
•
Indicate the consequences for core business and organisation, also in financial terms
•
Translate changes in the environment of the organisation, specifically in the field of core
business and labour market: for example the impact of technology development on numbers
of employees, skills, competences needed or on organisational structures & BPR
•
Be able to work in interdisciplinary settings with other stakeholders (e.g. business process,
financials, IT, housing, general strategy units)
•
Speak and understand the - more economic - ‘language’ of general Top managers
•
Be pro-active, creative and able to show the added value of the HR and Organisational
expertise
17
BZK/OPR/HKU/March 2013
Important enablers
•
The centralisation of HR administration and HR expertise in shared services
•
Exchange of employees between HR and primary process of the ministries
•
Skills and knowledge of the HR unit, especially of the senior HR managers, that enables them
to discuss and design strategic issues on board level and to develop organisational and HR
strategy in relation to the core business of the organisation
•
The strategic and HR abilities of the general top managers (DG’s and directors) in the
ministries
•
Competence profiles and recruitment in line with above mentioned skills; promote exchanges
•
Urgency/pressure to be creative, innovate and develop strategies in difficult times
