Human Resource Assistant RL 7 at Salaries and Remuneration Commission

Job Description Prior to establishment of Salaries and Remuneration Commission (SRC), remuneration and benefits payable to public officers were set through ad hoc Committees. Owing to the limited mandate of the foregoing Commissions and Committees, they only addressed remuneration and benefits in selected sectors and subsectors of the Public Service. The absence of a holistic approach led to substantial differences in salaries, allowances, other benefits and grading resulting in discontentment, low morale and inefficiencies in the Public Service. This situation was not helpful to an economy eyeing fast growth, supported by a vibrant Public Service. Moreover, the country was saddled by a ballooning public wage bill that required concerted effort to: first, harmonise the salaries of all public servants; and second, lay strong foundation to manage a bloated wage bill, thus free funds for development projects. The public sector wage bill has shown a positive trend from 57.33% of ordinary revenue in / to 48.1% in / as a result of previous initiatives by stakeholders. However, concerted effort by all arms of government is required to achieve a wage bill of 35% of ordinary revenue as per the PFM regulations and a wage bill to GDP of 7.5% from the current 8.1% in line with average for developing Countries. A fiscally sustainable wage bill releases additional resources to address the Big 4 agenda and other development goals.Operational Responsibilities / Tasks Update human resource employees’ data base and leave roaster;Receiving, sorting, filing and dispatching of mails;Coordination of transport logistics functions;Dissemination of human resource information internally;Document data on human resource metrics;Support the recruitment process by gathering applicant’s background information, assisting in interview processes, follow up with successful candidates, opening of new employee files and assisting in orienting new employee to the organization;Performing file audits to ensure that all required employee documentation is collected and maintained;Develop individual work plans, monitor own performance and seek requisite support to ensure delivery of agreed targets;Filling monthly vehicle returns and signing of work tickets where applicable;Maintaining of updated asset records and equipment inventory;Supervise drivers in line with Commission’s transport policy;Scheduling of official transport; andLiaising with service providers to ensure maintenance and servicing of motor vehicles in line with transport policy Job Competencies (Knowledge, Experience and Attributes / Skills).
