news.yahoo.com

A recent audit has called for improved workforce planning in Jersey's government. The report highlights that essential practices for recruiting and retaining staff are lacking across various departments, despite some progress being made. The audit reviewed departments such as Education and Health, finding no plans to address skills gaps or develop new professionals. Jersey's government, which employs about 14% of the island's workforce, spent 34% of its budget on staff costs in 2023. Deputy Malcolm Ferey, from the States Employment Board, stated that many issues raised in the report have already been addressed. He noted a decrease in employee turnover and emphasized the commitment to developing talent within the public service.
