In order to increase the effectiveness of human resource development in the Ministry of Justice, several actions have been taken.
Firstly, the allocation of employees from other institutions has been implemented according to the implementation instruction No. 909/2014. Employees who were not allocated from other federal offices have been assigned to vacant positions within the Ministry. This has resulted in the filling of 71 positions, including positions in the newly established Institution Building and Reform Sector Office, Branch Offices Monitoring and Support Directorate, Lemi Kura Branch Office, and Procurement Executive positions.
Additionally, the Ministry has hired a project manager for projects funded by the European Union. This is part of the effort to recruit and manage human resources with the budget of international organizations that support the Ministry.
To address organizational problems within the institution, requests have been submitted to the Civil Service Commission for approval and monitoring. For example, the Building and Facilities Work Department has requested approval and monitoring.
In response to the need for assistants for blind prosecutors in the Ministry, a new job list has been prepared based on the required skills of the position. The names of 24 positions have also been changed. The assessment work for these positions is currently being completed by the commission.
In terms of employee turnover, a total of 13 employees have been dismissed in the 2016 fiscal year, with reasons including retirement and voluntary resignation. The main problem cited by employees leaving the Ministry is the lack of employee incentive benefits and salary improvement.
Employee benefits such as annual leave, medical special leave, and various support guarantees have been provided according to government employee management instructions.
Furthermore, educational opportunities have been given to employees, with a total of 14 employees studying for second degrees and bachelor’s degrees at the Ethiopian Civil Service University.
Lastly, the Ministry has conducted monthly time signature control to monitor employee misconduct. Disciplinary charges have been initiated against two employees who were reported to have committed misconduct, and the cases of employees who have not received a decision are being monitored.
