comments:

We think it is great to reduce staff turnover rates and make them more committed to the project outcome by hiring them for the duration of the project implementation. On the other hand, some donors, including Japan, may not be able to enter into mulit-year contracts due to constraints in their budget systems. This is a problem of the donor budget system and not something the ILO can do anything about, but we will continue to look for better ways.

action_plan:

The ILO will continue the dialogue with the donors on the multiple year funding arrangement.

management_response:

Completed

Partially achieved

title:

The year-by-year allocation of funds has a negative impact on HR management and force the ILO to sign short term contracts – one year or less. This again can lead to a higher staff turnover than if there were funding in place for the whole project period. At the same time, it affects the multi-year planning at country level and conditions the strategy the ILO develops to deliver outputs over the program’s duration. It is recommended to commit funding for the full program period to accommodate for a strategic approach in program implementation. ILO is recommended to avoid short-term contracts as much as possible.
