Office of the Premier

Human Resource Management Plan

In meeting the government’s strategic priorities, the Office of the Premier will draw upon the skills, abilities, commitment and teamwork of the staff who work in the office. Our employees, their expertise and their knowledge are the fundamental and most valuable assets we possess to meet future challenges, and to secure our Service Plan goals, objectives and performance standards.

Accordingly, our Human Resource Management Plan has the following goals at its core:

  1. Ensuring that the organization has the structure, staff resources, performance plans and succession plans to achieve its present and future performance commitments.
  2. Acquiring, developing, retaining and sharing critically important knowledge and skills.
  3. Providing a motivating and rewarding work environment where effective communication allows for, and fosters, the achievement of individual and group goals and objectives.
