SHL, a provider of psychometric assessment and development solutions, has launched an HR Health Check initiative for the public sector to help government departments, local councils and the emergency services understand how they can attract talent, engage their workforce and provide best practise people management.
Headed up by Sean Howard, SHLís new Director of Dependability, HR Health Check is a free recruitment process review providing access to HR analysts and occupational psychologists. SHL experts will help identify the competencies needed to perform well in specific public sector roles, advise on assessment techniques such as ability tests and Occupational Personality Questionnaires and interviews. They also advise on the measurement of retention, engagement and development of existing staff thereby improving performance and talent management.
Howard explains: ìOne of the biggest challenges facing the public sector is absenteeism which is twice the level experienced by the private sector. Putting tools in place that can help identify potential employees who will have good attendance records and will be effective and positive team members is critical in overcoming this. Assessing dependability can also help predict the individuals who will work well in customer focused roles or be less accident prone in safety critical environments.
ìHR Heath Check has been designed to help public sector organisations identify how they can improve efficiency in the workplace and effectively manage recruitment processes and people management.î
