Assignment:

For more than 15 years you have been a human resources manager at a regional health centre that employs a combination of unionized and non-unionized workers. Your company is home to more than 300 employees, ranging from doctors and to nurses, to caretakers, clerks and administrators.

The hospital has been affected deeply by government cutbacks in funding and rising costs of carrying out core business, leading to a reduction in employee morale and a rise in burnout-related stress leave and employee attrition. The result is a skills shortage and an inability to recruit employees when compared to competitor firms. You have already rationalized your approach to demonstrating the need for a new total rewards system and have built on that work. You have also prepared a communication to the stakeholder group outlining your intentions. Your team has adopted a new job evaluation process to align to your new rewards system.

One critical step in this process is the adoption of an individual assessment model aimed at linking total rewards to performance. This is new for your employee group and as such, you must build a strategy to ensure their buy-in and support of the model.

Please assist with a memo to the employee group to explain the new individual assessment model. Include the key points of how it will work, what is included in the model relative to what is being measured, how the system supports pay determination and mechanisms by which they can receive full points in the grid.
