Advancing Public Sector Audit, Oversight & Governance

As public administration evolves to meet current challenges and circumstances, reforms are periodically undertaken to modernize the management of human resources across a whole government. These reforms are carried out through one of more initiatives led by central agencies and implemented by departments and agencies over a defined period of time. Initiatives generally aim to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of human resources functions, systems or processes (performance management, recruitment and retention, compensation, health and safety, etc.) in public sector organizations.

Audits of government-wide HR initiatives tend to focus on:

  • The extent of success (or lack thereof) in implementing new requirements, roles and responsibilities established by government-wide HR initiatives;
  • The evaluation, review and reporting of progress made by departments in implementing HR initiatives.
