Executive Summary
In June 2008, the National Civil Service Authority (SERVIR) was created as the leading agency in
managing the Human Resources Management System for public institutions. Complementarily,
the Ministry of Health defined a basic structure for this system to be implemented in health
institutions. This structure contains seven components or sub-systems with 29 processes.
Based on this structure, the Health Policy (HP) project designed a tool to assess the level of
implementation for all 29 processes at the regional level. This assessment instrument was applied
to Cajamarca and San Martin regional health directorates, and as results collected by the
Program to Support Health Reform (PARSALUD II) in 4 additional regions.
Evidence from these six regions confirms that human resource offices only perform administrative
activities related to monitoring staff attendance; recruiting, selection and hiring; managing
payrolls; and relations with unions. Almost no progress was seen in the performance evaluation
and planning components, while some modest progress was observed in processes related to
organization of work; capacity development; and management of human and social relations. The
few processes that are developing display technical shortcomings. The challenge is to make
these offices move away from personnel administration towards a more comprehensive human
resource management approach.
The poor performance of human resource offices is mainly due to the fact that these offices are
staffed with non-professional personnel who are not trained in human resource management.
Additionally, offices are not able to take on new responsibilities under the regulatory framework of
the human resources management system. Another difficulty related to the management of
human resources is the variety of personnel policies, many of which are duplicates of or are in
conflict with other policies. This confusion over policies prevents processes from being carried out
according to norms; causes frequent staff turnover; contributes to a lack of clarity in team member
roles and the lack of a responsible part for managing processes; engenders the existence of
various remunerative norms that provoke dissatisfaction and inequity; and impedes the creation of
reliable human resources information to formulate sound decisions. Additionally, not all processes
are managed by a single organizational unit.
A key factor in this situation is that the health authorities do not give much importance to human
resource management. In some cases, authorities have designated untrained employees as
heads of human resources offices. In another case, authorities have hired a lawyer to manage the
office to have a legal advisor to manage institutional relationships with unions.
For the health sector, the lack of a proper human resource planning process generates that
specific human resource needs to meet the population’s health needs are unknown. The lack of
job profiles favours selection processes that are based on subjective criteria rather than the needs
of the position. Recruitment and selection processes are carried out without taking into account
key regulatory aspects such as adequate dissemination for competitive recruitment; and objective
assessment of the candidates. The lack of objective performance assessments based on job
profiles generates that staff do not know if what they are doing is right. Lack of performance
incentives generates a lack of motivation. The lack of a fair and equitable salary scale not only
generates dissatisfaction but also results in a shortage of human resources where they are
needed most.
To tackle these problems, USAID has contributed to the design and validation of tools aimed at
the implementation of key processes for managing health human resources. The tools designed
include the following:
Methodology and tools to define human resource requirements at the first level of care.
Methodology and tools for the design of job profiles.
Policies, regulations and programmatic actions regarding human resources for health GHS-I-10-07-00003-00

Methodology and tools for designing salary scales for staff recruitment at the first level of
care.
Methodology and tools for competency development for health personnel responsible for the
growth and development of children under five years through the implementation of
competency development centers at the first level of care.
Methodology and flowcharts for recruitment, selection and hiring processes based on job
profiles.
Methodology and tools for evaluating the performance of health network managers.
Implementing these tools at the regional level depends fundamentally on whether regional
authorities understand the link between improvement in health indicators and the performance of
health human resources. Improving organizational performance depends on how many human
resources are required for the achievement of regional health goals and the individual
performance of each health worker.
To improve individual performance, it is necessary to define what is expected of each health
worker; measure the performance gap; implement incentive mechanisms for good performance or
capacity building programs; and establish an appropriate working environment.
This report presents detailed information about the results of the human resources management
system assessment as well as an explanation of the tools that were designed and implemented to
strengthen the system.

Introduction
The enactment of Legislative Decree (DL) 1023 in June 2008 created the National Civil Service
Authority (Autoridad Nacional del Servicio Civil - SERVIR) as the governing body of the Human
Resources Management System (HRMS). The Presidency of the Council of Ministers
(Presidencia del Consejo de Ministros – PCM) confers SERVIR with the legal power and national
authority to improve public administration by strengthening the civil service at national scope.
The HRMS provides, develops and implements government policies related to the civil service,
including the rules, principles, resources, methods, procedures and techniques used by all public
sector entities in the management of human resources (HR).
The HRMS is composed of:
a) SERVIR, which formulates civil service national policy, governs the system and resolves
disputes.
b) State-level human resources offices, or those acting in their place, which are responsible for
implementing the rules, principles, methods, procedures and techniques of the system as part
of the decentralization process.
According to DL 1023, the system comprises the following processes:
Planning of HR policies
Work organization
Employment management
Performance management
Compensation management
Development management and training
Managing relationships
Resolution of disputes
In addition, Article Six of Law No. 30057[1], the Civil Service Law passed in July 2013,
establishes the following functions for the HR office in public institutions:
a) Executes and implements arrangements, guidelines and management tools provided by
SERVIR and the respective public institution.
b) Develops guidelines and policies for the development of the personnel management plan and
the optimal functioning of the HRMS, including the application of indicators.
c) Supervises, develops and implements continuous improvement initiatives in the processes
that comprise the HRMS.
d) Conducts research as well as quantitative and qualitative analysis of staff provision, according
to institutional needs.
e) Manages job profiles.
f) Manages and updates, in the scope of its competence, the National Registry of Civil Service
Personnel (Registro Nacional de Personas del Servicio Civil) and the National Registry of
Dismissal and Sanctions (Registro Nacional de Sanciones de Destitución y Despido –
RNSDD).
g) Other functions that are established through regulations by the governing body of the system.

Through this framework, the Ministry of Health (MoH) proposes a scheme to support health
institutions in the implementation of a system for health human resources (HHR).
This report presents the current operating status of the HRMS in six regional health directorates;
activities that have been developed to strengthen HRMS implementation in health institutions; and
recommendations to improve implementation and replicate successes in other regions.

1. Legal and conceptual framework for the development of Human
Resources Management System in health institutions
This chapter delineates the legal framework governing HRMS implementation in public institutions
and the HRMS structure, which was designed by the MoH for health institutions nationwide.
1.1 SERVIR and Civil Service Reform
1.1.1 Background of the civil service in Peru[2]
The civil service in Peru has been characterized as very complex with large deficits in planning
and organization capacity. Most especially, however, the civil service has been criticized for
lacking a clear authority to conduct the processes required to satisfy workers’ needs and improve
performance.
Most of the obstacles toward achieving a just and equitable civil service are related to the
coexistence of different working regimes, distortions in remunerative schemes, temporary
contracts, the lack of a governing body, and most especially the lack of a national civil service
policy.
There have been various reform processes over the past 20 years, including the following:
a) In 1990, the reform process was characterized by downsizing and the redefinition of the
state’s role in HR issues. The following initiatives illustrate this process: reducing staff
through incentives to resign; closing entry into the civil service; creating a private activity
labor regime (DL 728); contracting "non-personnel services" to prevent the entry of
permanent staff; hiring senior officials from UNDP and the Management Support Fund;
and creating alternative mechanisms to increase worker incomes such as the
Management Committees for the Stimulus and Assistance Fund (Comités de
Administración del Fondo de Asistencia y Estímulo - CAFAE).
b) In 1995, the reform process concentrated on modernizing the state and encouraging the
flexibility of administrative systems. However, the process lacked political support, and
progress was limited to the enactment of the following laws: Law of State Procurements
(Ley de Contrataciones del Estado); Diplomatic Service Law; and the law that prohibits
recruitment and employment in case of kinship.
c) In 2000, the reform process sought to overcome citizens’ distrust of public institutions
through the creation of spaces for dialogue. A new process of decentralization was
initiated in 2002, and the “Framework Law for Public Employment (Ley Marco del Empleo
Público - LMEP) was enacted in 2004.
d) In 2008, the current civil service reform process started. At the outset, there were 500 civil
service regulations, more than 102 salary scales in 82 public institutions, over 400 rules to
regulate payment of public employees, and more than 198 remunerative and non-
remunerative types of payments. The Peruvian state employed approximately 1,300,000
public servants, and each year 42,000 new employees were being hired without a clear
purpose or need. SERVIR was created at this time1 as the administrative governing body
for HRM and responsible for civil service development. Several of the laws related to civil
service reform[2] are shown in the following table:

These regulations have been integrated into one law, which will regulate incorporation, retention,
promotion and termination of civil servants.
1.1.2 The Civil Service Law
After several attempts to improve civil service in Perú, Law No. 30057[1], the Civil Service Law,
was enacted on July 4, 2013 to establish a unique regime for individuals who are employed by the
government and are responsible for its management, the exercise of its authority, and the
provision of services.
According to the rule, the guiding principles of the civil service according to the law are: general
interest; effectiveness and efficiency; equal opportunity; merit; budgetary provision; legal and
regulatory expertise; transparency; management accountability; probity and public ethics;
flexibility; and protection against the arbitrary end of the civil service.
Civil servants in public entities will be classified by the following groups when the law is
implemented:
a) Public Official: Political representative or political office representative who exercises
government functions in state organizations. Directs a unit and approves policies and
standards.
Public officials are classified as:
Public official from a direct and universal election (president, vice president,
congressmen, regional councilors, mayors, aldermen)
Public official whose designation and removal is regulated (ombudsman;
comptroller general of the republic; public prosecutor; chairman of the supreme
court; president of the National Jury of Elections (JNE); and rectors and vice
rectors of public universities, among others)
Public official whose designation and removal is based on trust (ministers; vice
ministers; general manager of regional government; and municipal manager).
They must have higher education or experience and meet the job profile
requirements.
b) Public Directors: Civil servant who runs a body, program or special project. Admission is
by open competition based on merit and fulfillment of the respective job profile. Public
directors can remain in their position for three years renewable up to two terms depending
Policies, regulations and programmatic actions regarding human resources for health GHS-I-10-07-00003-00
Abt Associates Inc. Legal and conceptual framework for HRMS ▌pg. 5
on the fulfillment of annual goals. Their performance evaluations are based on
compliance with goals. Only 20% of public directors can have the status of “trusted
servants”2 .
c) Career civil servant: Civil servant with functions directly related to compliance of key
substantive functions. This is a unique and integrated system, which does not include
officers; public officials; trusted officials; or complementary activities civil servants. These
positions are not filled on a temporary basis. Hiring is done by open or public competition
based on merit, fulfilling the respective job profile.
d) Complementary activities civil servant: Civil servant with functions indirectly related to
compliance of key substantive functions. Hiring is done by open competition based on
merit, fulfilling the respective job profile. They can be hired through a contract for an
indefinite period or a fixed-term contract.
This law also reaffirms the organization of the civil service through the Administrative System of
Human Resource Management, which includes SERVIR, the HR offices of public institutions and
the Civil Service Tribunal.
HR offices or those serving in their stead are responsible for the HRM and have the following
functions:
a) Implements HR management guidelines provided by SERVIR and its unit.
b) Designs guidelines and policies for the development of a “people management plan” and
the optimal functioning of the HRMS, including the application of indicators.
c) Supervises, develops and implements continuous improvement initiatives in the HRMS.
d) Analyzes quantitative and qualitative staffing according to institutional needs.
e) Manages job profiles.
f) Maintains the National Registry of Civil Service Personnel and the National Registry of
Sanctions and Dismissals (RNSDD).
Major criticisms of the law originate from the workers union, which believes:
1. The law creates a new labor regime in the state.
2. The law did not collect the opinions of workers, who are directly involved.
3. The law restricts union rights and eliminates collective negotiation as well as the right to
strike and join a union.
4. Assessments would bring mass dismissals of workers, affecting labor stability.
5. It is unknown whether civil service salaries will be better.
6. The ability to relax the rules facilitates dismissal.
7. The law eliminates special assignments and subsidies.
Since passage of the law, the workers union has organized strikes
and mobilizations against implementation of the law, arguing that the
2 The law defines "trusted servant" (cargo de confianza) as a civil servant who is part of the direct and
immediate environment of public officials or public directors, and whose tenure in the civil service is
subject to the confidence of the person who supervises him. The number of trusted servants in no one
case should be greater than 5% of total posts provided by the institution, with a minimum of two and a
maximum of 50, with the head of the unit determining the location of trusted servants.
"There is a great fear that the law
can generate massive layoffs, but
we have repeatedly clarified that
this reform cannot be compared
with that made in the nineties.”
Nancy Laos, Minister of Labor,
July 31st, 2013.
Policies, regulations and programmatic actions regarding human resources for health GHS-I-10-07-00003-00

law eliminates work stability. The Minister of Labor has appeased labor unions by proposing a
series of "locks" to ensure stability required for state workers.
Encouragingly, a survey conducted between June 7-8, 2013[3] by a renowned polling company
produced the following results:
84% of the population agrees with meritocracy as the core of the reform, and 88%
supported annual evaluations of public servants.
74% approve the termination of personnel who has received negative performance
evaluations for two consecutive years.
36% have heard of this reform. Among this group, 56% approve of it. Support increases
to 78% after the components of the reform are fully explained.
According to the law, the new labor regime is meritocratic: hiring is carried out by publicized,
competitive examination, and job retention and promotion are secured through evaluations.
Perhaps the greatest error in rollout of the law was the lack of discussion to explain the scope of
the new law.
Regarding collective negotiation, the law states the following: “Collective rights of civil servants
are specified in Convention 151 of the International Labour Organization (ILO) and the
Constitution of Peru”. The law also stipulates that the right to strike is exercised after the failure of
any mechanisms for negotiation, and if workers decide to use this right, they must give 15 days of
advance notice to allow time for hiring temporary staff to ensure the provision of minimum
services.
The law does not explicitly mention dismissal as a result of evaluations. The law says that a
worker who receives a negative review, specifically "performance under observation", should be
trained; if the result of a second evaluation is again "performance under observation", the rating
will become “unsatisfactory”. However, the law does not state what will happen with employees
who receive “disapproving”.
There is currently no information on the contents of the law’s regulations. Meanwhile, union
protests continue.
1.2 Ministry of Health: Proposal on Human Resources Management
System for Health Institutions
Under the legal framework established by SERVIR and according to the Civil Service Law, public
institutions must implement their HRMS. To facilitate its implementation, the MoH has developed
a proposal for the structure of HRMS which defines subsystems, processes and functions.
The expected results of HRMS implementation in health institutions are:
a) Adequate health workers properly situated and properly performing their duties.
b) Attract and retain competent staff.
The following inputs are necessary to implement HRMS in health institutions:
a) Health policies and strategies to align staff performance.
b) Models of health care, management and health services organization to define
competency profiles, HR allocation, and HR compensation, among others.
c) Health service portfolios to define individual goals.
d) Civil Service Law as a legal framework for HRMS implementation.

The following subsections explain the operational definitions of each process within the HRMS for
health institutions.
1.2.1 HHR policy and strategic planning
This subsystem is primarily responsible for HRM alignment to national and regional policies;
national health strategies; and the comprehensive care model. It also enables coordination
among all HRM processes to ensure suitable and competent workers where they are needed.
The processes involved in this subsystem are:
HHR policies and strategies. This process consists of developing HRM policies and strategies
that will attract and retain competent staff.
Operational research development. It is necessary to have evidence in order to define policies
and strategies for HR management and development that are relevant and cost-effective. This
process seeks to promote research studies focused on factors that will attract and retain
competent staff as well as research to support HR policy design.
HHR information management. To ensure proper management, it is necessary to have reliable
and update-to-date HHR information at both the institutional and sectoral levels. HR observatories
are an excellent mechanism to maintain HHR quantitative information, and information system
records or specific databases, including staff competencies, performance evaluations, and
incentives, complement quantitative information. All information must be updated to allow
informed HRM decisions.
HHR management control. This process is aimed at supporting health managers at different
levels, as well as those responsible for other subsystems, in monitoring HRM indicators,
Policies, regulations and programmatic actions regarding human resources for health GHS-I-10-07-00003-00
Abt Associates Inc. Legal and conceptual framework for HRMS ▌pg. 8
analyzing results and defining necessary corrective measures. It also includes annual evaluations
of HRMS processes and manager performance.
HHR strategic planning. This process includes all actions related to quantitative and qualitative
HHR requirements and needs at all levels in the short, medium and long term at both institutional
and sectoral levels. This process also addresses necessary actions to fill the HHR gap. HHR
planning should be closely linked and coordinated with national and regional health policies;
institutional strategies; and health provision approaches (e.g. the family health care model).
Challenges to the planning process include high internal and external migration of health workers
as well as high staff turnover.
HHR financing. This process includes the necessary actions to ensure a sufficient budget to
provide adequate HHR for proper health facility operation.
1.2.2 Work organization
This subsystem exists to optimize HHR working capacity by specifying the content of functions,
activities and tasks, as well as the staff qualifications to achieve them.
The main goal of this subsystem is to establish a set of policies and standards regarding work
specialization that forms the "job"; the job profile includes a work description, including objectives,
relationships, roles, responsibilities and working conditions; and the position requirements,
including educational background, experience and competencies. As an additional part of the job
profile, competency profiles articulate staff abilities in regard to institutional objectives, goals and
organizational culture.
The processes involved in this subsystem are:
Job profile design. Based on the "general functions" established in the institutional ROF, each
organizational unit designs its positions and the specific functions of each position. The functions
of each position are outlined in the Manual of Organization and Functions (MOF). Based on the
MOF, each unit defines its "job profile", which has two major components:
Job description: Defines the characteristics of the job, including the job title; location within the
organization; relationships with other positions, including supervisory, managerial, and
collaborative roles; purpose; functions to be performed; and working conditions (e.g physical
such as equipment; normative, as the regulatory framework to be used) for good job
performance.
Job analysis: This refers to the characteristics of ideal job candidate in relation to the job
requirements. This section establishes required academic training, experience, knowledge
and skills.
Identification of labor competencies. This process identifies specific and general competencies
for each position.
Job rating. This process analyzes and compares the contents of jobs to define their relative
importance within the organization; place them in hierarchical order as the basis of the
remuneration system; and aid in the development of career plans within health institutions. Job
design alone is not enough to trigger HRM processes and it is also necessary to rank and value
jobs in relation to their importance within the organization. The position must be assessed and not
the person who occupies it.

1.2.3 Employment management
Employment management seeks to establish a set of policies and standards to optimize inflows,
movement and exit of staff in health care organizations. These policies and standards should be
based on job profiles and competencies established by the employer and should foster the
achievement of sectoral health objectives.
The processes involved in this subsystem are:
Recruitment. This process allows health care organizations, based on HHR needs identified in
the planning process, to attract candidates to participate in selection processes. The recruitment
process uses internal (within the organization) or external sources.
Selection. In this process, the institution examines whether candidates meet the job
requirements, which are described in the job profile, and then selects the candidate who has the
necessary skills for successful performance. This process also involves the formation of selection
committees and defines the criteria, standards, procedures and tools for evaluating candidates in
the selection process.
Incorporation. This process formalizes the entry of the selected candidate into health
organizations and establishes the characteristics, conditions, restrictions and penalties related to
employment. This process includes compliance with standards for each of the modalities of
incorporation (stable or contracted) and the definition of the duties and rights of HHR.
Induction. This is a general orientation process prior to the start of work activity. This process
provides basic information about the institution, including norms, policies and organizational
characteristics; explains the nature of the position; and indicates requisite functions and roles. In
addition, the new employee receives relevant information to help achieve satisfactory
performance.
Staff mobility. This process defines workplace assignment changes that HHR can perform both
inside and outside health institutions. These changes balance the needs identified in the target
unit and the availability of the worker (in the origin institutional source) as well as the worker's own
need, under current regulations. The regulation defines the types of workplace assignment
change, displacement criteria, and administrative procedures to be followed for each type of
mobility.
Management of personnel files, control of attendance. This process consists of conservation,
renovation, veracity and legality of the documents maintained by institution staff, as well as
compliance with rules for the submission of affidavits. It also includes the management and
control of the working day, permissions, holidays, leave, etc.
Administration of disciplinary process. In this process, the institution determines the level of
staff responsibility in certain administrative acts, including compliance with disciplinary procedures
in accordance with applicable regulations; the classification of fault; the design of internal rules
(reglamento interno de trabajo - RIT); and the registration and updating of the RNSDD.
Staff termination and retirement. In this process, the institution regulates the term of
employment between staff and the institution. In compliance with labor rights and under current
regulations, disengagement may be voluntary or involuntary. There are currently several forms of
disengagement: resignation, removal, dismissal, and termination, among others. This process
includes the enforcement of laws on the causes for dismissal; termination of employment
procedures and requirements; and standards and criteria for the termination of employment.

Abt Associates Inc. Legal and conceptual framework for HRMS ▌pg. 10
1.2.4 Performance management
The performance management subsystem aligns the strategy of the institution with the individual
objectives of HHR to continuously improve staff performance and hence institutional performance.
Performance evaluation is part of performance management, which allows each member of the
institution to know at all times specific employee expectations in terms of quantitative and
qualitative attributes for a given period. The aim of the evaluation is to establish strategies for
solving performance problems motivate employees and encourage personal development.
The performance management subsystem defines and measures competency standards and
performance targets to be achieved by health personnel in order to promote and maintain the
highest possible level of performance based on recognition of merit, ability and equal
opportunities.
Performance management is mainly aimed at establishing a set of policies and rules regarding
standards of competence and performance goals of health workers.Achievement of these goals is
linked to various incentive and personal development mechanisms, which promote continuous
improvement processes in HHR and, consequently, in health institutions.
The processes involved in this subsystem are:
Performance planning. This consists of defining competencies, standards and individual
performance goals to be achieved in line with institutional priorities, strategies and objectives.
This process also includes the definition of the methodology for performance evaluation as well as
the design of the necessary assessment tools for an objective measurement of staff competence
and compliance with established performance goals.
Supervision. This consists of continuous and systematic support to health workers to improve
their performance based on the observation that immediate supervisors do to promote continuous
improvement of skills. This process is also driven by leaders.
Performance evaluation. This consists of an objective and transparent measurement of health
staff skills and institutional goals obtained during a defined time period and following a predefined
methodology. Results should be compared to competency standards and goals established in the
performance planning process.
Feedback and design of plans for individual performance improvement. In this process,
plans are designed for individual performance improvement based on results from the
performance evaluation. Leaders define performance objectives for each employee in the
following year.
1.2.5 Development and training management
The development and training management subsystem defines practices to encourage
professional and job development opportunities by providing learning opportunities as well as
career path planning within the organization.
The processes involved in this subsystem are:
Labor advancement (promotion and career path). This process is responsible for the policies
and procedures governing HHR promotion and occupational group change within an institution. It
also manages the assumption of duties and responsibilities of greater difficulty or complexity in
comparison to the previous level. The labor process includes both horizontal progression, which is
a progression in degree, category, or step that can be established without shifting the workplace
or occupational group to which the worker belongs; and vertical progression, which is promotion
within the structure of the organization to a higher level.
Policies, regulations and programmatic actions regarding human resources for health GHS-I-10-07-00003-00
Abt Associates Inc. Legal and conceptual framework for HRMS ▌pg. 11
Capacity building. This process is responsible for providing tools and resources to facilitate
individual and collective learning and further develop staff labor competencies. The term "labor
competency" refers to the knowledge and skills demonstrated at work and reflect the worker's
contribution to the objectives of the organization.
Regulation of the teaching - service process. This process involves a set of actions needed to
articulate HHR training and education activities within health services. The teaching and service
provision relationship refers to the simultaneous occurrence of health service provision and
specialized educational opportunities for health personnel in health facilities. The dual nature of
these training areas requires the regulation and enforcement of standards to ensure the quality of
both health and education services.
1.2.6 Compensation management
Compensation management relates to remuneration provided by the organization in return for
work done.
Compensation can take several different forms: pay or base salary, which is a fixed amount that is
paid hourly or monthly; monetary and non-monetary incentives related to performance
recognition; and benefits, which are established by law and serve as additional payments
awarded by the institution.
The processes involved in this subsystem are:
Design of salary scales. This process defines salary scales based on job profile and job
classification by levels.
Management of payroll and salaries. This process manages compliance with the rules and
procedures which establish and maintain fair and equitable salary structures in the organization.
In this process, the organization defines the remunerative and non-remunerative compensation as
well as electronic payroll management: monthly payroll (Planilla Mensual de Pagos - PLAME);
registration of labor information (Registro de información laboral – T Registro); and social benefits
settlement, such as compensation for time of service (Compensación por Tiempo de Servicios -
CTS), gratuities and bonuses. This process also involves the regular registration of income, both
on the dependent category (fifth category) and the independent category (fourth category).
Administration of benefits and bonuses. This process administers extra-pay benefits including
holidays, life insurance, subsidized transportation, subsidized food and health insurance.
Incentive management. This process enforces the rules and instruments that are established
and applied by the institution to recognize worker achievements. This recognition has no
permanent wage effects and can be monetary and non-monetary.
Pension management. This process manages the recognition and granting of pensions; survival
verification; and the application of legislation for pension payment.
1.2.7 Managing human and social relations
This subsystem seeks to regulate and harmonize interactions between individuals, focusing on
the collective dimension. It includes policies and practices related to organizational climate; labor
relations; social welfare; and safety at work.
This subsystem supports all of the subsystems mentioned above and guarantees conditions
conducive to satisfactory productivity and performance.
Policies, regulations and programmatic actions regarding human resources for health GHS-I-10-07-00003-00
Abt Associates Inc. Legal and conceptual framework for HRMS ▌pg. 12
The processes involved in this subsystem are:
Management of the organizational climate and culture. This process is aimed at maintaining
or improving the perception of collective satisfaction. Organizational climate is defined as the set
of qualities, attributes or relatively permanent properties of a particular work environment, which
are perceived, felt or experienced by workers who make up the organization. The organizational
climate influences individual behavior.
Management of labor relations. This process governs relations between the head of an
organization and social partners, including unions and associations, which represent workers or
group of workers. This process also involves collective negotiation of wages and working
conditions to appropriately manage conflicts.
Workplace health, safety and welfare. This process includes two groups of activities:
Social welfare: This activity affects the quality of life of staff and their extended family and
fosters a peaceful and enjoyable workplace experience. Social welfare programs include the
promotion of sports activities; event celebrations; cafe or restaurant services; educational
support; financial services; daycare; and care for elderly people, among others.
Health and safety at work: This activity refers to a set of rules; procedures; and technical,
educational, medical and psychological measures to protect employees’ physical and mental
integrity. These measures prevent health risks inherent to job tasks and the physical working
environment. This activity also seeks to diagnose and prevent occupational diseases based
on the study of two variables: man and his work environment.

2. Assessment of the Human Resources Management System
In 2012, the Program for Health Reform Support (Programa de Apoyo a la Reforma del Sector
Salud – PARSALUD II) led the development of a technical report entitled "Developing a Health
Model for Decentralized Regional HRMS: Ayacucho, Cajamarca, Cusco, Huanuco and Ucayali
and their Respective Action Plans"[4]. This document includes a diagnosis of HRMS performance
at various levels of management, including the Regional Health Directorate (RHD), networks,
micro-networks and hospitals. Both PARSALUD II and the project developed the HRMS
diagnosis, which was based on the HRMS structure as defined by the MoH. To gather the
information, PARSALUD II designed a survey for examining each of the subsystems defined by
the MOH.
The project reviewed PARSALUD II’s survey and incorporated the latest developments in the
HRMS structure. The project also worked with the MoH to expand the survey to examine all
processes involved in the HRMS.
In this chapter, the methodology developed by the project to gather information in San Martin
Regional Health Directorate (SMT-RHD) will be presented. In addition, the results of the survey
conducted in SMT-RHD for each of the HRMS processes will also be presented.
Based on the PARSALUD II technical report, a comparative chart was compiled to display each
subsystem’s operations in regions where PARSALUD II works.
Since the instruments used by PARSALUD II and the project are different, the results are not
comparable. Given this, the project gathered information from Cajamarca using the instruments
applied in San Martin to compare results obtained. This comparison is presented in a table
showing the performance of HRMS in these two regions.
2.1 Performance Evaluation of the Entire HRMS in Health Institutions
2.1.1 Tools and methodologies to assess HRMS implementation
In order to gather the necessary information to determine the level of HRMS implementation, the
project employed the following tools, which were developed by the USAID Peru Health Policy
Project:
a) A list of questions for each of the processes in each HRMS subsystem3.
The questionnaire consists of several closed questions whose answers are YES or NO. The
following are several examples:

b) A spreadsheet to record the answers of every closed question.
The spreadsheet immediately allows the aggregation of results into tables and graphs for
easy analysis. Additionally, each question has been weighted according to its strategic
importance in proper HRMS functioning.
The project used the following ratings to analyze the results:
High development: > 80% complete
Moderate development: 40% - 80% complete

To gather information on the implementation of the HRMS in SMT-RHD, the director of the HR
Management Directorate developed a workshop for responsible parties of HRM processes at
different organizational levels.
Working groups were formed to analyze each subsystem. The project made a conceptual
presentation of the processes in each subsystem for each working group to facilitate
understanding of survey questions.
2.1.2 Human Resources Management System in SMT-RHD
The new organizational structure of SMT-RHD[5] has considered the functioning of two normative
units, which must maintain close coordination, to lead HRMS implementation:
Policies, regulations and programmatic actions regarding human resources for health GHS-I-10-07-00003-00
Abt Associates Inc. Assessment of the Human Resources Management System ▌pg. 16
Human Resource Management and Development Directorate (HRM Directorate) - This body
executes exclusive regulatory functions in HHR management and is primarily responsible for
the following subsystems: policy and planning; work organization; performance management;
development and training management; and some processes related to compensation and
labor relations management.
Operations Directorate – This body manages regulatory functions for all administrative
systems, including personnel administration. It is primarily responsible for the job
management subsystem and some processes of compensation and labor relations
management.
The implementing units of HRMS are:
Health networks, which are responsible for implementing the processes regulated by the
HRM Directorate.
Operations Offices, which are responsible for implementing the processes regulated by the
Operations Directorate.
These inter-relationships are presented in the following graph:

The new ROF is currently under implementation so the region’s units are not fully deploying their
functions. As of July 2013, the HRM Directorate only has five employees, including four
professionals and one technician; two of the professionals have permanent positions, while the
other staff members were hired through an administrative services contract (Contrato
Administrativo de Servicios – CAS)[6]. The quantity and composition of staff members is
insufficient to lead, regulate, monitor and control the implementation of HRM processes.

SOURCE: Cajamarca technical report
Table 5 shows that Cajamarca has not reached optimal levels for proper HRM. The weaker
subsystems include performance management; work organization; and management of human
relations. These weaknesses are concerning since these subsystems are integral to achieving the
objectives, goals and outcomes of the health care model in the region.
Regional management documents are outdated and are not aligned with the decentralization
process, much less with the current care model. Given this situation, processes within the HR
policy and strategic planning subsystem have not been developed.
Comparative chart
The project created a table of results obtained by PARSALUD II from Ucayali, Cusco, Ucayali,
Cajamarca and Huánuco to compare RHD performance on HRMS implementation. Other results
from Cajamarca and San Martin, which were obtained by applying diagnostic tools designed by
the project, are also included to make additional comparisons.
Analysis of some processes has not been considered in the PARSALUD II evaluation because
the information is too qualitative.
To elaborate this matrix, the project examined information from the PARSALUD II technical
report4 to compare the results and formulated the following conclusions:
All PARSALUD II RHDs, with the exception of Ucayali which shows little development in all
subsystems, show the same results in each of the subsystems.
PARSALUD II survey does not cover all processes in its analysis.
The project’s survey explores in greater detail HRMS processes. Comparing Cajamarca
results from both surveys, differences in application, analysis and results are apparent.
By comparing San Martin and Cajamarca performance with the application of HP project
survey, better results are apparent in San Martin in all the subsystems.

Below are key findings for each of the processes within this subsystem:
Formulation of policies and strategies for management and HHR development
This process shows 73% success, mainly due to the following developments:
The HRM directorate is responsible for developing HR policies for the SMT region.
In October 2008, SMT-RHD led the signing of a memorandum of commitment to all
institutions in the regional health system approving a set of regional policies for HHR
management and development. These policies are aimed at improving the performance of
HR and working conditions to "have adequate health workers properly situated, properly
performing their duties". Currently, these policies are not approved.5
The USAID Peru Health Policy Project is working closely with the SMT-RHD management
team to implement these policies.
Progress and specific advances are presented in the following table:
Table 8: San Martin human resources regional policies: Progress.

Policy 3. - HHR strategic planning
based on actual needs to properly
allocate HHR according to
demographic, cultural and
epidemiological profiles of the
region, highlighting health
priorities of excluded populations.
Methodology to determine HR
requirements and gaps for the first level
of care.
Determination of HR needs at micro-
network level for the short, medium and
long term.
Strategies to fill the gaps.
Institutional planning system for
HHR.
Policy 6. - Implementation of a
new regulatory framework based
on labor competency profiles;
compensation and incentive
systems; recruitment and staffing
processes; applying public career
promotion; and considering rights,
duties, gender equity and respect
for diversity.

Despite advances in the design and implementation of regional HR policies, problems that have
been encountered in this process are outlined in the following table:
Table 9: Constraints in the formulation of policies and strategies for HHR management and
development. San Martin, 2013.
Problem Constraints Consequences Proposal for
improvement
HR policies have not been
approved.
Designed policies have nothing
explicitly related to health and
safety at work.
There are aspects of designed
policies which are not yet
implemented, including skills
development; motivation and
incentives; and workplace
health, safety and welfare.
Changes in regional authorities
slow the approval process.
This aspect was not prioritized
at the outset due to lack of
information and awareness
regarding its importance.
Lack of a policy framework and
competent teams to design
policy implementation
strategies.
Lack of a regulatory
framework for HHR
actions in RHD.
Administrative
sanctions for failure to
comply.
Review and update
policies to bring into
alignment with Civil
Service Law.
SOURCE: SMT technical report
The Civil Service Law includes the following statement to describe one function of the HR office or
corresponding body:
"Develop guidelines and policies for the development of a personnel management plan and the
optimal functioning of the HRM, including the application of performance indicators."
Development of operational research
Unfortunately, this process has not progressed, despite the existence of a national research
agenda for HHR problems for 2011-2014, which was approved on March 18, 2011 by ministerial
resolution.6
Problems encountered during this process are included in the table below.

Problem Constraints Consequences Proposal for

Neither HRH
investigations nor a
diagnostic assessment
of the HRH situation in
the region have been
carried out.
The lack of research and
diagnostics is mainly due to
the lack of a responsible party
to promote this work. The
diagnosis is not taken into
account when making
decisions.
Authorities do not give due
importance to this process.
HRM directorate has little
capacity for HRM: staff must
assume multiple roles and
cannot specialize in research
issues.
Due to the lack of research, there
is no evidence to support the need
for policies and strategies to
improve HRM and staff
performance.
Based on HRMS
diagnosis, identify
research topics to
be co-financed with
the central level.
SOURCE: SMT technical report
HHR information management
Progress in this process is 76%, which is deemed “moderate development”.
According to current ROF, the HRM directorate is responsible for maintaining HR information. To
accomplish this, the institution employs official reporting systems to record information on HR
employment.
Key informants report that they use the information from these systems to make decisions.
The weaknesses identified in this process are included in the following table.
Table 11: Constraints in HHR information management. San Martin, 2013.
Problem Constraints Consequences Proposal for
improvement
Current information
systems do not register
non-remunerative items;
staff attendance,
tardiness and absences;
public tenders; current
allocation of each
worker; or personnel
files.
They use MEF reporting
applications (payroll system,
SIGA), but this data is
insufficient for decision
making and comprehensive
analysis.
This is because the RHD
does not define the type of
information they need for
relevant and timely decisions.
Insufficient information is
recorded to make decisions.
By not knowing the allocation of
workers, health networks are
hiring staff where they are not
needed. Operational units do
not report to the RHD about
public tenders they perform.
Define HRM issues to
monitor at all levels.
Develop reporting
systems; flow charts;
and collation and
analysis of required
information.

HHR management control
No progress has been achieved in this process.
According to the current ROF, there is no party responsible for this process although it is noted as an important function of HR offices in the Civil Service Law.

A responsible party has
not been defined to
manage this key
function, which is
explicitly mentioned in

Indicators for HRM have
not been defined.
RHD does not perceive
the need to monitor HRM
indicators.
Due importance is not
given to this process.
Insufficient staff to
implement HRM
processes, and current
staff must execute
multiple roles and cannot
specialize.
RHD and operational units
do not measure progress
in HRMS implementation
in order to improve them.
Form an ad hoc
committee to define

HHR strategic planning
Progress in this process is 82%, which is deemed “high development”.
This high level of achievement is based on the following actions:
According to the current ROF, the HRM directorate is responsible for this process.
Last year, the RHD made calculations of HHR requirements and needs at the first level of
care.
7 The standard suggested to be fulfilled is at least 80%.
Policies, regulations and programmatic actions regarding human resources for health GHS-I-10-07-00003-00
Abt Associates Inc. Assessment of HRMS ▌pg. 27
To estimate HHR needs, SMT-RHD considered population growth; an increase in functions;
expected increase in production; effective demand projections; and health service use
projections.
To make accurate calculations, SMT-RHD used a spreadsheet prepared by the project and
an application designed by the MoH. The MoH application includes the same criteria as the
project spreadsheet.
According to key informants, these results are used for hiring purposes to justify the need for
an increased budget and request more Civil Health Service in Rural and Marginal Urban
Areas (Servicio Rural y Urbano Marginal en Salud - SERUMS) positions.
SMT-RHD has a staffing plan for the medium term. Unfortunately, recent staff turnover in the
RHD management team has delayed the plan’s revision by the new team. Additionally, the
HRM directorate has insufficient staff to perform all assigned tasks.
The weaknesses identified in this process are included in the table below.
Table 13: Constraints in HHR strategic planning. San Martin, 2013.
Problem Constraints Consequences Proposal for
improvement
In spite of having a
party responsible for
estimating HR needs
and an application to
calculate needs, there
is no updated
information on current
staffing.
The MoH has provided an
application to facilitate
accurate calculations.
Micro-networks do not
regularly report information on
staff allocation and levels
because they are not required
to do so. Additionally, there is
no mechanism to allow this
information to flow from the
bottom up, at least quarterly.
HR gaps cannot be
estimated due to
unreliable information on
current staffing.
High risk of overstaffing
or misallocation.
Develop a staff
information mechanism
to periodically flow from
the bottom up to identify
needs; this mechanism
could be included in the
MOF that is being
designed.

According to the Civil Service Law, all HRM offices in the public sector must execute the following
function:
"Study and analyze the quantitative and qualitative staffing of public institutions according to institutional needs."
HHR financing
Progress in this process is 100%, which is deemed “high development”.
This level of achievement is due to the following actions:
There is a body responsible for managing this process.
According to key informants, last year the SMT-RHD estimated HHR funding needs and
generated calculations based on the number of unfilled positions of contracted staff under
CAS mode; HR needs evaluation; implementing units’ requirements; and the historical
budget.
The SMT-RHD designed proposals to finance hospitals and SERUMS staff.

More specific findings on each of the processes are listed below.
Design of job profiles
This process shows a 38% achievement rate due to the following developments, among others:
Technical team members have utilized the following documents: Staffing Table 2013 (Cuadro
de Asignación de Personal – CAP); MOF 2006; and Staff Budget 2012 (Presupuesto Analítico
de Personal – PAP).
According to CAP 2013, the number of stable staff is less than the number authorized in the
CAP. However, the total number of workers, both stable and hired, exceeds the quantity
allocated in the CAP. Therefore, contracted staff exceeds the authorized number.
Job profiles have been created for 60% of the positions in SMT-RHD organizational units.
To design the specific functions of each position, the SMT technical team referenced the opinion
of experts and general functions established in the ROF. To define the position requirements, the
team considered the regional labor market situation, the complexity of the functions and the
importance of the position. However, designed job profiles have not yet been officially approved.
Despite advances in this process, problems have been encountered and are summarized in the
table below.

January 2013 in designing competency profiles for the first level of care as well as for managerial
and administrative positions. In designing the profiles, the technical team is referencing the
Competencies Dictionary and MoH-designed competencies and consulting with experts.
Despite advances in this process, problems have been encountered and are summarized in the

2.4 Employment Management: Progress
The following graph presents the results of the five processes that are involved in this subsystem.
On average, the subsystem only achieved a 37% progress rate, which is deemed “little
development”.
In general, most processes have made some progress. According to information provided by key
informants, however, there are processes that have achieved no development, including staff
mobility as well as staff termination and retirement.

Finding for each process in this subsystem are presented below.
Recruitment, selection, incorporation and induction
This process shows achieved a 38% progress rate due to the following developments, among others:
There is a responsible party for managing staff recruitment, selection, incorporation and
induction. However, in some cases there is no one responsible for the development of each
process.
Key informants said that evaluation instruments in the most recent selection process were
only used to fulfill the minimum requirements of current regulations. These evaluation tools

Despite advances in this process, problems have been encountered and are summarized in the following table.
Table 25: Constraints in recruitment, selection, incorporation and induction. San Martin,

Despite having a
responsible party for
managing recruitment,
selection, incorporation
and induction of staff,
CAS hiring processes
conducted last year lack
the use of job profiles,
terms of reference,

certification8.
Affidavits from hired
candidates are not
verified during the
recruitment and
selection process.
Hired staff does not
receive appropriate
instruction because
there is no responsible
party to inform them of
policies, rules, roles,
goals, vision, mission
and institutional values.
Lack of administrative
procedures in personnel
administration.
There are no visible leaders
to take responsibility for
executing these processes.
The local labor market is tight,
and there is a poor
understanding of these
processes.
Salary scale is not
competitive to attract skilled
personnel with HRM
knowledge.
Frequent personnel turnover
results in the accumulation of
records pending verification
and interferes with daily
tasks.
Lack of awareness regarding
the importance of the
induction process as a tool for
strengthening organizational
learning.
Absence of qualified
personnel and sound
knowledge of HRM
procedures generate
mediocre management
results, and an error prone
environment that has high
civil and criminal liability.
The working environment
deteriorates as a result of
staff who do not fit the job
profile, standards or
requirements; this can
cause a rise in unmet
demands.
The cost to the state to
recruit unqualified
personnel is high because
turnover is more likely.
This creates further costs
in time and money to carry
out a new recruitment and
selection process.
Design a directive to
establish procedures and
responsibilities for the
different processes of
recruitment. This directive
must be supported by the
correct contract file that
includes the standardized
job profile of the post to be
hired, as well as the budget

The Civil Service Law explicitly states the following as a function of HR offices or the
corresponding body[1]:
“The selection process is a mechanism to join a group of public managers, career civil servants,
and public servants from complementary activities. It selects the best people for the job on the
basis of merit, competence and transparency, ensuring equal access to public service."
Staff mobility
This process has achieved little to no progress.

Management of staff files and attendance control
This process has achieved a 40% progress rate mostly due to SMT-RHD selection of a person responsible for updating information regarding staff files and a person responsible for attendance control records.
Despite advances in this process, problems have been encountered and are summarized in the table below.
Table 27: Constraints in management of staff files, attendance control. San Martin, 2013.
Problem Constraints Consequences Proposal for

The filing of staff information
is not done through a digital
recording system which would
facilitate and expedite the
organization of information on
recruited staff.
A digital attendance control
system is in use, but
physicians do not record
attendance in the way agreed
to by the medical union.
Physicians also disregard the
rules requiring a public
servant to record attendance
in order to maintain payment
of their salaries.
Failure to implement
software for the digital
recording system may
stem from insufficient
budget or poor familiarity
with modern devices.
In health institutions, it is
critical to establish
physician attendance
controls. Physicians are
the only workers exempt
from signing attendance
control records
according to an
administrative
resolution.
Failure to evaluate staff
in a timely manner can
interfere with efficient
decision making.
Implementation of a
comprehensive
administrative system of

Administration of disciplinary process
This process has achieved a 43% progress rate due to SMT-RHD designation of a responsible party to manage disciplinary proceedings. The SMT-RHD has also created a permanent commission to manage administrative processes; the commission’s decisions are inherently supported by a resolution.
Despite advances in this process, problems have been encountered and are summarized in the table below.

Key informants report that the RHD has designed a promotion policy that has not been
approved or disclosed to workers.
They have designated a responsible party for this process within the HRM directorate.
The promotion policy takes into account personnel file information, including professional
background required, years of service, trainings, performance evaluations, and absence of
disciplinary offenses; interviews; knowledge test; knowledge required for new position;
experience in the public sector; recommendations of previous employers; and opinion of
current supervisor.
The RHD states that decisions related to promotion are not susceptible to political influence.
Despite progress, problems have been encountered and are summarized in the following table.

Capacity building
This process achieved a 58% progress rate, which is deemed “moderate development”, due to
the following developments:
The SMT-RHD has a methodology to lead staff capacity development, which was provided by
the MoH.
The SMT-RHD has a responsible party for staff training processes.
The SMT-RHD has organized the following educational interventions: short courses,
workshops, lectures, and internships in regional hospitals and Lima hospitals.
To identify training needs, the responsible party takes into account institutional objectives and
goals; regional health priorities; MoH training offers; regional educational institution training
offers; institutional requests; and direct requests from workers.
To select training participants, the RHD takes into account the functions of the position and
the request from an immediate supervisor.
Salaried and contract staff can participate in trainings.
The unit responsible for training mainly deals with logistic details, including: announcing
training opportunities; facilitating audiovisual media, managing refreshments, preparing the
training room, providing teaching materials, and evaluating acquired knowledge.

these processes.
On the other hand, SMT-RHD has achieved ”moderate development” in the management of
incentives and the design of a pay scale; the HRM directorate is responsible for implementing
these processes.

Findings for each of the processes in this subsystem are summarized below.
Design of salary scales
This process has achieved a 63% progress rate, which is deemed “moderate development”, due
to the following developments, among others:
Utilizing HP project TA, SMT-RHD designed and approved a salary scale to hire staff working
in first-level-of-care facilities. This approval resolution defines mechanisms for implementation
and maintenance.
The approved salary scale incorporates the following criteria: level of development (rurality)
and poverty in health facility location; distance from Tarapoto to health facility; furthest village
still within its jurisdiction.
Rioja network used the approved pay scale to hire physicians. This network is also in the
process of implementing the new scale for new contract hires.

Management of payroll and salaries
This process has achieved a 100% progress rate, deemed “high development”, due to
the following developments, among others:
The SMT-RHD has an exclusive division responsible for managing payroll.
Policies, regulations and programmatic actions regarding human resources for health GHS-I-10-07-00003-00
Abt Associates Inc. Assessment of HRMS ▌pg. 59
Payrolls and pensions are kept up-to-date. This is mainly because there are mandatory
national regulations, as well as software which need to be regularly updated so that staff can
receive timely payment of their salaries.
Administration of benefits and bonuses
This process has also achieved a 100% progress rate, which is deemed “high development”.
Like the previous process, the registration of benefits and bonuses is mandatory and is monitored
by the Ministry of Economy and Finance (MoF).
Operations offices are responsible for this process.
Additional bonuses in the form of AETA (Extraordinary Assignment for Health Care Work) are
distributed among professionals and technicians working in health care. Each type of professional
group and technicians receives 22 AETAs.
Bonuses to officers and managers are provided through CAFAE. Technicians in administrative
positions receive bonuses through SUB-CAFAE.
Incentive management
This process has achieved a 44% progress rate, which is deemed “moderate development”, due
to the following developments, among others:
While operations offices are responsible for managing monetary incentives, the SMT-RHD
has not assigned a responsible party to define non-monetary incentives.
Key informants report that the RHD has approved institutional regulations for the
implementation of monetary and non-monetary incentives.
The SMT-RHD has assigned monetary incentives to work teams and not to individuals.
Despite the lack of a responsible party to manage non-monetary incentives, SMT-RHD has
granted several, including public recognition of achievement of corporate goals; secretaries
receiving training courses; days off; baskets of food; uniforms; and organization of internal
sports championships.
Despite these advances, problems have been encountered and are included in the following
table.

In general, PARSALUD regions do not have specific pay scales for hired staff. Every
remuneration concept is linked to an official that manages each one of them (pensions, benefits,
bonuses and monetary incentives). Every remuneration concept must be updated on a permanent
basis because staff payment depends on the timeliness and accuracy of this information.

Management of the organizational climate and culture
This process achieved a 63% progress rate, which is deemed “moderate development” due to the
following developments:
The SMT-RHD has designated a responsible party to manage organizational climate and
culture in the HRM directorate.
The SMT-RHD has methodology and tools to assess organizational climate; with these tools,
they have assessed the organizational climate this year.
The assessment of the organizational climate has received support from the highest levels
within the institution and at least 90% of workers.
Despite these advances, problems have been encountered and are summarized in the following

Management of labor relations
This process has achieved a 100% progress rate, which is deemed “high development”.
The project isolated the following positive developments in this process:
The HRM directorate is responsible for managing this process.
Over 75% of staff is unionized.
Doctor, nurse and midwife unions meet monthly to discuss issues related to the health staff
on duty and job stability.
Administrative and technical staff unions meet at the request of the union leadership to
discuss problems about health staff on duty and job stability.
Key informants describe the relationship between trade unions and RHD authorities as
"good".
The latest negotiation between the union and the authorities has left both parties satisfied,
and both sides are fulfilling all agreements and commitments.
In 2012, the medical strike lasted 72 days.
Relations among RHD members, networks and health facilities are generally good. However,
relations within operations offices are rated as "poor" due to a lack of communication.
The most common causes of labor disputes include salaries, union struggles and internal
rivalries.
Mechanisms used to solve conflicts include negotiating with unions, direct negotiations with
the aggrieved, and negotiations with the immediate boss.
Workplace health, safety and welfare
This process has achieved a 60% progress rate, which is deemed “high development”, due to the
following advances:
The HRM directorate is responsible for managing this process.
There are social welfare programs but only in hospitals and mostly for the elderly. Hospitals
plan and organize social welfare activities.
This year, the RHD is organizing the regional olympics as a social welfare activity.

3. Activities undertaken to strengthen the HRMS in health
institutions
3.1 Activities undertaken to estimate staffing needs
To implement universal health insurance (UHI) at the national level, it necessary to assure the
availability and proper allocation of HHR with the necessary competencies to provide quality
health care services. The first step in this process is estimating the HHR requirements needed
to provide the UHI “essential package” (Plan Esencial de Aseguramiento Universal - PEAS) and
cover the HHR gap to assure quality care under UHI.
One of the main problems at the national level is the scarcity of health professionals at the first
level of care. To rectify this issue, one of the HP project’s main activities was designing a
proposal to estimate HHR requirements at the micro-network level.
The MoH and HP project designed and validated methodology for one region, and this
experience was scaled up to the national level. The HP project and MoH supported the
following activities:
Bibliographic review of methods to identify HHR needs. The project decided to use tools
proposed by WISN (Workload Indicators of Staffing Need)[8] as its main reference.
Human resources software review which are applying at the regional level. The project
specifically reviewed software that manages the centralized registry of payrolls and public
sector HR data, which is administered by the Ministry of Finance (MoF); more specifically,
the project looked at the level of reliability, data timeliness, and the level of analysis at the
point of data entry. HP project regions keep updated information through software that
registers HHR data except staff recruited for Health Administration Local Committees
(CLAS - Comités Locales de Administración de Salud); CAS hired staff; displacements; and
actual HR allocation. All regions must report using MoF software, but they do not analyze
the data.
Bibliographic review of approaches in estimating HR requirements for the first level of care.
The project analyzed three main approaches[9, 10]:
- Needs-based: converts projected service needs to personnel requirements using
productivity norms and professional judgment.
- Utilization-based (or demand-based): estimates future requirements based on current
level of service utilization.
- Health workforce to population ratio: specifies desired worker-to-population ratio.
To meet the health needs and services determined by PEAS and to address population
health needs using a mix of HHR, the project selected the needs-based approach.
The methodology used within this approach is based on a a bottom-up process: data is
collected from each health facility and is consolidated by the micro-network; data from all
micro-networks is consolidated at the network level and then further consolidated at the
RHD level.
Established a formula to calculate HR requirements. This calculation must be done for each
type of HHR.
Policies, regulations and programmatic actions regarding human resources for health GHS-I-10-07-00003-00
Abt Associates Inc. Activities undertaken to strenghen the HRMS in health institutions ▌pg. 70
Formula:
HHR requirement
=
Total quantity of time (hours) required to produce PEAS procedures
Standard of available working time per health worker per year x
dispersion index
Calculated the numerator. The project reviewed and validated ASEGURA10
software, which
determines the number of hours required to provide each PEAS procedure linked with a
specific health staff category and a specific unit time (activity standard or activity time)11
at
the national level12
. In order to validate ASEGURA usefulness in HR calculations at the
regional and network level, the HP project and the MoH organized a workshop with Callao
RHD and Lima Ciudad RHD. The main conclusion from the workshop was the need to
make adjustments in ASEGURA, which was designed to perform financial analysis at the
national level. In order to define the total number of procedures necessary to provide PEAS
at the regional and local level for a given population, ASEGURA needs to be flexible when
considering local incidence of priority diseases; determining the type of procedures actually
performed by health staff within networks according to PEAS procedures and the actual
operational capacity of health facilities; considering the regional and local population
structure which is different from the structure at the national level; and considering current
health care norms to calculate activity standards.
In order to make calculations and include adjustments in ASEGURA, the project designed a
spreadsheet13
. Another option considered was the design of an HR module within
ASEGURA, but at that moment ASEGURA was being reviewed and updated.
The spreadsheet has the following advantages:
o It is based on the probability of occurrence of cases (for healthy and ill conditions)
by age group for a given population.
o For each case, the spreadsheet defines all the procedures involved based on
current health care standards.
o For each procedure, it establishes the HHR types involved and the time spent by
each HR type to perform a procedure based on current health care standards.
o It considers the effective time that will be available to provide health care (that is
discounting administrative, training, vacations time, among other issues).
o Allows adjustment according to current and potential health portfolio in the short
and medium term.
o Allows calculation of the HR requirements adjusted for the conditions of the district
in which the health facility is located.
o It considers the current HR allocation in each health facility to determine the gap
that must be covered.

at the national level.

o Facilitates the design of charts and graphs, which allow for better analysis of HR
allocation within the micro-network.
Calculated the denominator. The project used the WISN method as a technical reference
point: WISN is based on actual work and is useful for calculating both current and future
HHR requirements. More specifically, it is based on working time, components of work and
activity standards. For our purposes, the project identified indicators related to time spent at
work and other components, including time to directly provide services, vacations, sick
leave, holidays, training, local travel, and administrative burden. On this basis the project
gathered the relevant information in the field. The project provided technical assistance to
the MoH team to design and develop the research project using these indicators. The
research was executed in Ayacucho RHD to determine the time available to solely perform
PEAS procedures. This research project was financed by the MoH. Additionally, the HP
project, along with technical teams from Ucayali and San Martin RHD, conducted interviews
to determine the available working time to provide PEAS at the first level of care14
.
Research results were, in some cases, absolutely unacceptable: in several networks, health
workers spend more than 50% of their time doing activities other than providing health care
services. One conclusion from this research study is that there is a need to define “activity
standard”: how much time on average a case should take each staff category while working
to acceptable professional standards and standards related to distribution of health
providers’ time. It is not acceptable that health workers, who are hired to provide health care
services, spend more than 80% of their time doing other activities. If RHDs do not properly
organize and control staff time distribution, they will always have HR gaps.
Given these results, the SMT-RHD defined standards for the available working time for
each type of health facility at the first level of care15
.
The MoH analyzed results obtained in Ayacucho, San Martin and Ucayali, and determined a
national standard for the available working time needed to provide PEAS.

Calculated the dispersion index. Since expected health worker performance is different in
rural and urban settings, it is important to determine a “rural” index to adjust calculations
based on the conditions of the location. Due to the diversity of clusters with different levels
of population density and local development in Peru, it was necessary to define an index
that adjusts HR requirement calculations. The HP project and the MoH developed a study to
determine the “rural” index for each district nationwide[11]. Based on this study and after
many workshops with RHD, the MoH used one of the components from the “rural” index
(population density) and defined a dispersion index for all districts in the country. The
dispersion index has only two clusters: “dispersed population” and “no dispersed
population”. From this, the MoH defined a “productivity index” to adjust HR requirement
calculations.

Determined the formula to calculate HHR gap. Once HR requirements were defined, the
next step was to calculate the HR gap by comparing the difference between current and
required staff in order to identify understaffed or overstaffed networks. The formula to
estimate the HHR gap is:
HHR gap = Current staffing – HHR requirements
Policies, regulations and programmatic actions regarding human resources for health GHS-I-10-07-00003-00
Abt Associates Inc. Activities undertaken to strenghen the HRMS in health institutions ▌pg. 73
Current staffing. Aside from determining HHR requirements, it is necessary to determine
current staffing by network in order to calculate the gap. The main difficulties in estimating
the HHR gap were related to staff turnover as well as the lack of reliable information
regarding the actual location of health staff. It took more than six months to collect current
staff information in Ayacucho, Ucayali and the SMT-RHD; once consolidated, this
information proved to be completely outdated.
The SMT-RHD decided to organize a workshop with all the micro-networks; each micro-
network prepared the required information, which was consolidated during the course of the
workshop. While productive, organizing a workshop whenever RHDs need this type of
information is expensive and inefficient. A mechanism is needed to oblige all micro-
networks periodically send information about the current staffing at each facility to its
respective network; networks would then send this information to the RHD for regional
consolidation and analysis. The micro-network is the only source of this kind of information;
without this information, any estimation is completely arbitrary.
The following table displays an example of the results which could be obtained automatically
with the application of the spreadsheet to calculate HR staffing needs.

requirements obtained through ASEGURA plus adjustments for location conditions; and
current staffing obtained directly from micro-networks until a comprehensive HHR
information system is implemented.
o HHR gap: Comparing the difference between current and required staffing levels to
identify which locations are understaffed or overstaffed. In the table above, the
negative numbers in red indicate understaffed positions. For example, in Huallaga
network there is a severe shortage of nurses, especially in the Saposoa micro-
network. This information could prove useful if Huallaga network has additional
funds to hire health workers: the priority would be to hire nurses in Saposoa micro-
network instead of technicians, which is a currently overstaffed position.
o Workload ratio (the WISN ratio)[8]: Dividing current staffing by HR requirements as
a proxy measure to assess the pressure that health workers experience in their
daily work. Values over “1” indicate overstaffed; values below “1” indicate
understaffed. For example, if a heath facility has four physicians and needs only
two, the workload ratio is two; this means that two doctors are working for every
one that is needed. Conversely, if a heath facility has two physicians and needs
four, the workload ratio is 0.5, which means that one doctor has the workload of two
doctors. In Huallaga network, nurses have the lowest workload ratio, which means
that they have the highest actual workload and feel the most pressure of all
workers.
o The availability of HHR measured by the ratio of professionals per 10,000
inhabitants: Dividing the current staffing by the total population. According to the
Pan American Health Organization (PAHO), there are usually 10 physicians, 10
nurses, and five midwives per 10,000 inhabitants in developing countries. To
compare, Huallaga network has five physicians and five nurses per 10,000
inhabitants; this is 50% less than the average. There are 5.4 midwives per 10,000,
which is slightly more than the average. Accordingly, there would be no need to hire
additional midwives in this network.
The HHR shortage is severe in remote and rural areas mainly due to low wages and poor
working conditions, as well as low connectivity in most of the micro-networks which
prevents regular professional development.
Defined strategies to cover the gap. With these results, the project discussed a set of
strategies to gradually bridge the gap:
o Improve working conditions, especially in remote and rural areas.
o Establish mechanisms to monitor the appropriate use of staff time.
o Distribution of tasks or “task shifting”.
o Improve equipment to shorten working time.
o Define health facility opening hours according to population needs to increase
productivity.
The project worked with Ayacucho RHD to implement task shifting at the network level.
Preliminary results from task shifting show that at the operational level, where the scarcity of
physicians is high, nurses and midwives are performing some medical procedures. In
Ayacucho, nurses and midwives are teaming up to share tasks that have traditionally
belonged to only one of them. Task shifting resulted in a decrease in the average number of
working hours for doctors and nurses, as well as an increase the average number of
working hours for midwives. After task shifting, the overall gap of health staff changed.
Some networks have a gap in midwives instead of being overstaffed, and fewer networks

are overstaffed in general. This is evidence that the redistribution of tasks as a result of task
shifting allows the efficient use of scarce resources such as doctors and nurses.
Based on this methodology, the MoH designed an application to perform these calculations,
and the project provided TA to support application in Ayacucho. Additionally, the HP project
worked with the MoH to design the “Methodology Guide to Calculate HHR Gaps for the
First-Level-of-Care”, which is being approved through a ministerial resolution for national-
level implementation.
3.2 Activities undertaken to define job profiles
The National Civil Service Authority (SERVIR), which directs the HRMS, states that the
classification and organization of employment positions is the starting point for the
implementation of a HRMS. To promote this idea, SERVIR developed a technical paper entitled
"A Methodological Guide for the Development of Job Profiles” to facilitate the correct
construction of job profiles by human resource managers[14].
Within this framework, job profiles serve as a tool of HR management in providing structured
information regarding the location of a position within an organizational structure, the position’s
purpose and its main functions. A job profile also includes the requirements and demands of the
job to clarify expectations and performance standards.
Based on the importance of the job profile, SERVIR and the HP project developed two macro-
regional workshops to disseminate methodology for designing profiles.
The methodology, in line with the conceptual framework established by SERVIR, identified a
number of procedures to be accomplished before the design of a job profile[15]:
Review of institutional policy documents (ROF, MOF, CAP)
Define the criterion that determines positions and their functions based on one of the
following three approaches: systems approach, process approach, or function focused.
Development of a matrix to define functions for each of the positions.
Preliminary Job profile design
- Determining functions within the matrix of job functions.
- Assessing job functions.
- Identifying essential job functions.
- Identifying position requirements.
- Identifying skills and competencies required for the position.
The Ayacucho RHD technical team, with technical assistance from the HP project, developed
job profiles for the Ayacucho Executive Office of Management and Human Resource
Development; these job profiles are listed below and detailed in the HP project technical paper,
entitled "Staff Jobs Profiles for the Executive Office of Management and Human Resource
Development”[16].

The HP project continues to support and provide technical assistance to the Ayacucho RHD in
designing job profiles for staff who provide primary health care services. More specifically, the
project is working to identify and systematize technical information that has been validated by
representatives of networks and micro-networks.
The methodology developed by the HP project for job profile development dictates that defining
"health professional” positions is a first step in the process and should be guided by Law No
23536 and its regulations (DS No 0019 - 83-PCM). Based on this, health professionals include
the following groups: surgeons, dental surgeons, obstetricians, nurses, biologists,
psychologists, social workers, and pharmacists. The HP project also considers nursing
technicians to be important components of the health team. Having specified professional
health groups, the following three points are important in the development of job profiles and are
included in the HP project document entitled "First-Level-of-Care Job Profiles"[17]:
Point 1: Finding information on the functions of each occupational group by category within
each first level of care including I-2, I-3, and I-4.
Point 2: Confirmation of job functions through expert judgment (regional workshop).
Point 3: Job profile description for first-level-of-care staff.
The Ayacucho RHD technical team designed job profiles for the following first-level-of-care
personnel:

The HP project’s TA was instrumental in the development of job profiles at the regional health
directorate level and has contributed to the improvement of the HRMS in the following ways:
- Regarding the recruitment and selection process, job profiles provide information that can help define the types of media and notices necessary to attract the largest number of candidates.
- Job profiles facilitate the induction process of orientating a new employee within the organizational structure; clarifying relationships with other positions and organizational units; and outlining objectives and duties.
- Training processes are better oriented for the development of Personal Development Plan (PDP).
- In the performance evaluation process, updated job profiles are helpful in defining personal skills or competencies to be monitored through performance evaluations.
- Job profiles also support decision making regarding displacement decisions, designation, rotation, temporary assignments and staffing redeployment.
In recent years, SERVIR has been developing actions within the most urgent aspects identified
to initiate civil service reform as a mandatory by the human resources office, or in lieu thereof,
as stated in Article 6 of Law No 30057.
During the course of the year, there have been a series of regulatory changes regarding HRM in
health institutions nationwide. Specifically, it is now mandatory for health care institutions to
possess updated job profiles in compliance with administrative regulations and requirements.
HP project participation in organizing and structuring Ayacucho HRD and SMT-HRD job profiles
has provided both a valuable experience and a considerable advantage for both regions as
other regions work towards adapting to current regulations for HRM in health institutions.
3.3 Activities undertaken to define managerial competencies
According to the ILO[18], job competencies are divided into general and specific competencies.
General competencies can be described as corporative, generic, organizational, core, and
Policies, regulations and programmatic actions regarding human resources for health GHS-I-10-07-00003-00
Abt Associates Inc. Activities undertaken to strenghen the HRMS in health institutions ▌pg. 81
value-based; all members of an organization must possess these competencies. Specific
competencies can be described as technical or functional aspects; each worker in an
organization performs a set of functions and must demonstrate competency in the proper
performance of those functions. The capabilities linked to the employee's functions are "specific
competencies".
USAID projects provided TA to the MoH in the conceptual and methodological framework to
define general competencies. Using this framework, the MoH defined the following general
competencies for the health sector16
:
1. Ethical commitment
2. Respect for life, people and environment
3. Communication based on cultural diversity
4. Teamwork
5. Ability to organize and plan
These general competencies must be a part of the job profiles for each posotion in all public
health organizations. Accordingly, the HP project provided TA to help design job profiles in the
Ayacucho RHD and the SMT-RHD, and these competencies have been included in all job
profiles.
The Council for the Quality of Professional Education (Consejo de evaluación, acreditación, y
certificación de la calidad de la educación superior universitaria – CONEAU) is in the process of
defining managerial competencies for all health professions. CONEAU is responsible for
working with professional associations and training institutions in the definition of professional
competencies. There is consensus among health professional associations that all health
professionals perform healthcare, training, management and research actions, focusing on their
daily activities in one of them. In April 2013, CONEAU officially formed a special committee
responsible for designing managerial competencies, which will be used in the mandatory
professional certification process. In 201217
, CONEAU designed a proposal related to
managerial competencies and in 2013 CONEAU submitted the proposal to the special
committee for review, but this committee has yet to convene.
As part of the decentralization process, a new set of functions was transferred from the MoH to
regional health directorates. To support this change, the HP project provided assistance to the
SMT-RHD in the definition of specific managerial competencies for each of the new functions
through the creation of a competencies dictionary18
. This dictionary has been used in the
definition of specific managerial competencies in Ayacucho and SMT.
The Ayacucho RHD asked the HP project for TA in the design of HR job profiles. Using the
SMT-RHD managerial competencies dictionary, the Ayacucho management team identified
specific competencies necessary for HR management19
and then assigned specific
competencies to appropriate job profiles.
To define job profiles and develop performance evaluations for managers at the SMT-RHD
network level, the HP project supported technical teams at the network level in defining two
types of managerial competencies: transversal, which are common to all management
positions, and specific, which are related to the specific functions of the position. For specific
managerial competencies, the HP project utilized the managerial competencies dictionary,
which contains 86 specific competencies. Managers at the network level used this dictionary to
prioritize three competencies that are specific to each position and included them in respective
16 See MoH general competencies in Annex 7.10. 17 See CONEAU managerial competencies in Annex 7.11. 18 See Managerial competencies dictionary in Annex 7.12. 19 See HRM competencies in Annex 7.13.
Policies, regulations and programmatic actions regarding human resources for health GHS-I-10-07-00003-00
Abt Associates Inc. Activities undertaken to strenghen the HRMS in health institutions ▌pg. 82
job profiles. For transversal competencies, the HP project provided a list of 14 competencies20
determined by a bibliographic search of the most common managerial competencies. Based on
this list, network managers defined four competencies to be included in job profiles for all
managerial positions and in performance assessments for network managers.
The four transversal managerial competencies include:
1. Maintain a satisfactory organizational climate
2. Lead, mobilize and inspire teams
3. Maintain good interpersonal relationships
4. Use resources with a high sense of responsibility
3.4 Activities undertaken to design salary scales
One problem in the health sector is the shortage of human resources, especially at first-level-of-
care facilities. One cause of this problem is the inability to attract and retain qualified staff,
mainly in health facilities located in remote and excluded areas; unfortunately, these areas also
have a greater need for health care services. More broadly, while the level of development and
connectivity plays roles in attracting and retaining health care professionals, wages are even
more strongly linked to hiring and retention.
Given this, RHDs should set fair and equitable salaries for hiring staff, especially since more
than 50% of the health workforce is contracted by a variety of regimes.
Graph 17: Health professionals by labor condition, MoH and regional governments, 2012.
SOURCE: MoH – HHR Observatory
The main problem in setting a regional salary scale for health staff is the lack of governance
from RHDs due to the existence of “budget spending units” (unidades ejecutoras de
presupuesto – UE). These units have the authority to define the number of staff hired and
respective salaries without considering technical criteria. This autonomy generates internal
20 See Transversal managerial competencies in Annex 7.14.
Policies, regulations and programmatic actions regarding human resources for health GHS-I-10-07-00003-00
Abt Associates Inc. Activities undertaken to strenghen the HRMS in health institutions ▌pg. 83
inequality, dissatisfaction and demotivation among health workers since two or more health
professionals doing the same job receive different wages. Additionally, local governments as
well as public and private donors can hire health personnel and offer a different salary: this
means that professionals working in the same health facility performing the same functions earn
different wages.
To define a fair and equitable salary scale in hiring health personnel at first-level-of-care
facilities, the HP project worked with Ayacucho, Ucayali and SMT RHDs to define methodology
and tools to set salary scales according to specific characteristics and regional needs[19].
In February 2012, two directives were approved in Ayacucho: a regional directive approving
salaries for first-level-of-care personnel hired by CAS and a second-level-of–care personnel
hired by CAS21
. In Ayacucho, the wage scale is being implemented in all UE. The RHD team
used the methodology to design salary scales for hospitals and RHD workers; they also used
the wage scale to establish the 2013 budget.
In Ucayali, the HP project provided TA to define criteria and respective weights in order to value
job positions and define a salary scale for each micro-network. The salary scale was applied in
the recruitment and selection process in some networks, but there was no regional resolution to
approve its use in all networks.
In SMT, the project presented its experiences from Ucayali and Ayacucho in the design of pay
scales for the first level of care. Regional authorities were interested in this methodology
because it allows them to consider different contexts and factors. Using this background
information, the management team defined four factors to be considered in the SMT pay scale
as well as the relative weight and importance of each factor. The team also defined the
following characteristics: separate pay scales for medical and non-medical health professionals
and technicians; and a pay scale for each health facility.
With these guidelines, the project designed SMT-RHD pay scales that were then approved through directorial resolution. Factors and their respective weights are shown in the table below.

3.5 Activities undertaken to develop competencies at micronetwork
level
One of the challenges faced by all RHDs is reducing maternal mortality and child malnutrition.
Achieving this depends not only on the availability of equipment but also on the availability of
competent health workers to provide quality health care. Accordingly, it is important to identify
and confront issues related to HHR management and development, including the following[20]:
Limited development of competencies among health workforce.
High turnover of trained staff.
Reduced or inexistent access to training activities for health personnel in remote areas
Poor coordination between RHDs and training institutions resulting in health professionals
who are not responsive to regional health needs Training programs conducted in settings
which are different from actual work environments
Performance evaluations are not competency-based
Health personnel are poorly motivated and not committed to the goals and strategies of
their respective institutions
To manage these issues, USAID provided TA to regional governments to implement regional
HHR policies and improve health worker competencies related to the provision of quality health
services to mothers and children. As part of this TA, Huanuco, Pasco and Junin RHDs
cooperated in the development of a conceptual, methodological and instrumental framework for
a "Competencies Development System", which includes the implementation of competencies
development centers (CDC). Huanuco RHD was the only institution that implemented all
aspects of the system, including the opening of three CDCs in Amarilis, Margos and Acomayo.
The objective of a CDC is to generate and strengthen labor competencies among RHD health
workers at the network and micro-network level with the involvement of local government,
training institutions and professional associations. These centers are part of an in-service
training strategy to foster the development of competencies in locations similar to actual
workplace settings.
Stages of CDC implementation are shown in the graph below.

USAID TA achieved the following results in 2009[21]:
CDCs institutionalized in Huanuco, Junin and Pasco regions with the assistance of the
regional government’s social development management department as well as RHDs and
local governments.
Labor competencies designed, validated and approved for antenatal care; growth and
development monitoring (control de crecimiento y desarrollo – CRED); training nutritional
sessions; care of women in labor and immediate postpartum; and vertical birth.

92 health workers were trained at a CDC through an internship.
Six health workers trained at a CDC have received supervisory visits.
Achievements in Huanuco in this short time frame were mainly due to USAID TA; strong support
from the regional government’s social development manager; the involvement of the University
of Huanuco’s School of Nursing; and most especially the commitment of networks’ technical
team.
A year into CDC implementation in Huanuco, regional and RHD authorities changed, and CDCs
were left without technical and political support. However, two CDCs in Amarilis and Acomayo
are still operating today.
The HP project visited these two centers to interview health authorities and tutors to determine
how the centers have managed to continue operating. The visit yielded the following findings:
All tutors were recognized as certified and competent in CRED through regional resolutions.
Many tutors were also employed as teachers in regional universities, and the health facility
was incorporated into the university as a teaching center.
Mothers attending these health facilities, easily recognized if they are attended by a trained
in the CDC, of another who was not involved in the internship at the CDC, and not allowed
to be attended by untrained personnel. This causes the staff has not been trained ask to
participate in the internship at the CDC.
Health workers from other health networks claimed to be trained at the CDC.
The local government supports the maintenance of equipment and materials for early
stimulation.
This program will be implemented in SMT health networks.
3.6 Activities undertaken to assess management performance
A performance assessment consists of identifying, measuring and managing human
performance in organizations. Identification is based on jobs analyses and intends to determine
which work areas should be studied when their performance is being measured. Measurement
is the core of an evaluation system and seeks to determine how performance compares with
certain objective parameters. Management is the focal point of any assessment system and to
realize the full human potential of an organization it should be orientated towards the future
rather than focus on examining past activity[22].
The regulatory framework defines performance evaluation as a mandatory, comprehensive,
systematic, continuous and demonstrable set of staff activities, skills and performance
measures to meeting goals and objectives. Senior management and human resources, or the
latter’s designees, are responsible for ensuring assessments are carried out in the time and
manner established by SERVIR.
All evaluation processes are subject to the following minimum requirements:
Performance factors measured should be related to job functions, which are clearly defined
in the job profiles of the organization.
Performance is based on factors related to measurable and verifiable targets.
Prior to the evaluation, the worker must be aware of the procedures, factors or goals which
are evaluated.
Evaluations are conducted on an annual basis.
Policies, regulations and programmatic actions regarding human resources for health GHS-I-10-07-00003-00
Abt Associates Inc. Activities undertaken to strenghen the HRMS in health institutions ▌pg. 87
A worker who does not participate in the evaluation process on his own accord, for justified
reasons such as illness, receives a disapproving score, since the performance evaluation is
mandatory for all employees.
All performance evaluations must conform to institutional characteristics, and services provided
correspond to the position types in an organization.
SERVIR considers the following two types of evaluation as complementary. The first type of
evaluation is a measurement of competence that identifies the gap between optimal skills and
current skills to identify training needs. The second type of evaluation aims to measure goal
achievement and identify staff contribution towards achieving organizational goals as well as
areas where adjustments are required to improve performance.
Due to the approval in previous months of new regulations for the civil service and the
administration of performance evaluation, the HP Project has conducted workshops with the
SMT-RHD management team to develop a management tool that allows them to identify
training needs. Additionally, the management tool would also verify and qualify achievements
according to individual institutional goals programmed into the duties’ performance required by
each position. The objective is to provide the SMT-RHD with a tool to measure the evolution of
employee work performance in order to continuously improve institutional management.
3.6.1 Performance evaluation method
The evaluation method developed and proposed by the HP Project ensures that criteria and
practices allow distinguishing performance differences that exist between people in the service
of SMT-RHD. The performance evaluation consists of two parts:
a. Results Evaluation – This component measures the performance of position functions
and/or processes. These functions, including essential and general functions, as well as
position processes, are clearly defined in position profiles for each organizational unit of
the SMT-RHD.
b. Competency Assessment – This component measures general work competencies
which have been identified and approved for all health sector staff and are contained
within the MoH publication "Work Competencies for Improving the Performance of
Health Human Resources".
The following graphs demonstrate the two components of a performance evaluation.

Graphic 20: Competency Evaluation
3.6.2 Performance evaluation implementation
The implementation of performance evaluations for SMT-RHD staff contains two components:
a) Competency measurements to examine position abilities, skills and attitudes takes
place through a 360° evaluation in which the criteria and parameters for each evaluator,
including self, supervisor, subordinate, peer and client, are required to measure the
competencies established by position type, as shown in the graph below.
b) Completion of essential job functions. To achieve strategic and institutional objectives,

information, knowledge and resources.
3.6.4 Analysis of results obtained in the evaluation of goals attained and
competencies
Once the performance evaluation is completed, the SMT-RHD Directorate of Human Resources
processes the information in a format entitled "Analysis of Results Obtained", as shown below,
to determine the gap between expected and observed results. The “Problem Statement”
section highlights factors which caused the gap, analyzes the problem and identifies causes.
The format also shows proposed corrective actions in the short- and medium-term for each
evaluated category.

3.7 Activities undertaken to improve recruit and selection processes
The recruitment and staff selection sub-processes are defined in the employment management
system and framed by the HRM system. These processes are intended to include highly
competent persons within varying organization work areas through transparent and efficient
processes, where merit, suitability and non-discrimination are central elements of its execution.
At present there are irregularities in the implementation of HRM processes (selection, training,
evaluation, mobility, separation, compensation and incentives) depending on labor
arrangements. For example, in most public sector institutions there is no application of merit
and performance principles for either recently hired or long term staff or towards service
retention and no monitoring mechanisms both selection and design processes of job profiles.
Selection tends to be based on the characteristics of the person to be chosen rather than those
required for the position.
Following the analysis for estimating health human resource gaps at all SMT-RHD networks and
micro-networks, the project performed in January 2013, a baseline evaluation of staff
recruitment and selection processes. The analysis took as observation samples the budget
execution units at San Martin (U.E. 400) and Alto Mayo (U.E. 401), both of them in San Martin
RHD. The purpose of the study was to describe the recruitment process in force, so as to allow
the identification of improvement options in the context of the modernization of the human
resource management system.
Tools used in the baseline evaluation were: questionnaires (items research), interview guides
and check lists. Steps from the recruitment and selection process that were evaluated are:
preparatory stage, recruitment stage, selection stage, contract signing stage. The organic units
which participated in this evaluation are mentioned in table 64:

The assessment performed in San Martin RHD revealed that the highest percentage of health
workers in health facilities and micro-networks were hired under CAS modality.
With that information in mind San Martin RHD requested the project advance a proposal to set
policies and procedures for the recruitment and selection of staff. Within this proposal also had
to be defined powers, responsibilities, obligations and terms of the organizational units involved
in the process, according to regulations and the reality and potential of the region. Particularly,
SERVIR regulation for the recruitment procedure were taken into consideration (see graphic
66).
Graphic 23: Macro process: administrative services contracting - CAS
During 2013, the project conducted workshops with the technical team of San Martin RHD to
build the recruitment process proposal. As a consequence San Martin RHD Director and his
management team approved the general process flowchart for recruitment. This process is
described below (Graphic 24).
Preparation Stage: This stage starts the recruitment process, and includes the approval of
recruitment requirements to be part of the job announcement. The administrative
management unit (UGA) is the body responsible for administrative services contracts within
health office operations, hereinafter OOS.
Process initialization:
a. The user area sends the administrative service requirement to the immediate supervisor
in their organization. In San Martin RHD, through the Directorate of Health Management,
where an assessment has to be made as related to estimates of human resource
requirements.
b. All networks forward to their Health Operations Office their approved human resource
requirements, within a schedule timetable. OOS budget execution unit evaluates networks
requirements based on budget availability.
c. Budget execution unit forwards the requirement along with their certified budget proposal
to the health network.
d. The health network forwards the requirement to San Martin RHD-Directorate of Human
Resources Development. This instance assesses the requirement according to stated
regional health priorities.

e. Directorate of Human Resources Development responds to the health network to
authorize and commence the recruitment process through the Directorate of Health
Management.
The Directorate of Health Management cannot start the recruitment process unless it has the
following documents: institutional requirement, terms of reference and budget certification by
budget execution unit. It may be necessary to develop or adjust the job profile of the desired
personnel to be hired. However, if there is already a job profile, it has to be reviewed and
updated according to the functions and competencies required.
For facilitating this process, the project defined a methodology for defining job profiles, providing
a framework for developing job profiles in health provision and health management
positions[15].

Recruitment Stage. During this stage, dissemination is started in order to inform vacancies
available, according to institutional needs. Dissemination must comply with current regulations
for recruitment procedures. In the case of San Martin RHD, health networks are entitled to
utilize additional dissemination media for attaining recruitment objectives. Minimum media to be
used are:
a. National Employment Service of the Ministry of Labor www.empleosperu.gob.pe/
b. National Internet Portal http://www.peru.gob.pe/
c. Institution web portal http://www.diressanmartin.gob.pe/web/
This process is described below (Graphic 25).
The MoH web portal as supplementary dissemination media
This tool is currently unavailable for informing on vacancies availability. However, it has been
considered by the project as a valuable tool based on the following facts:
a. It facilitates of the tracking and monitoring of jobs demands nationwide, since it can
concentrate institutional, local and regional offers in each region
b. It could serve as a specialized broadcasting tool nationwide within the health sector.

Selection Stage. This stage comprises the objective assessment of applicants who meet the
conditions required by the area user. Assessments required by law are curriculum evaluation
and interviews. In San Martin RHD, additional mechanisms are used by health networks, such
as psychological evaluations, knowledge assessments, etc. to suit the characteristics of the
vacancy service area.
a) Curriculum Evaluation: It involves the analysis, review and compliance checking with
the minimum position requirements in terms of education, training and/or expertise,
experience and skills (mandatory).
b) Personal Interview: This technique allows the evaluator to meet and evaluate the
applicant during the recruitment process (mandatory). Personal interview includes the
following elements:
- Presentation and development: Appropriate personal bearing and ease of
communication in conveying ideas.
- Attitude and qualities: Applicant behavior and expression, both verbal and nonverbal,
manifested during the conduct of the interview.
- Knowledge and analytical skills: Ability to respond to hypothetical and diverse workplace
scenarios related to the job as well as actual work situations.

4. Conclusions
Based on the results of HRMS assessment in six RHDs, the following can be concluded:
1. In general, there is poor development in the implementation of HRMS processes at the regional
level; only SMT-RHD shows moderate development at 48% towards goals.
2. The performance management component shows the lowest level of development in all assessed
RHDs, including SMT-RHD. The employment management component shows a high level of
development in four RHDs.
3. These results are due to a clear lack of delineation of regulatory functions in RHDs regarding
HRM, which must be explicitly stated in the manual of operations and functions (MOF). RHDs
have not designated responsible parties for many of the HRM processes. HRMS components are
not in the same organizational unit which makes it difficult to implement as a whole system with
components and processes interrelated and interdependent, under a single person. Additionally,
in many RHDs the heads of HR offices are non-professional staff members and have not been
trained in HRM. The number of personnel working in HR offices is insufficient to perform all HRM
processes well.
4. Processes that have reached more than 50% implementation are mostly related to compliance
with the requirements of higher authorities such as the MEF, which requires regular information
reporting.
5. Regarding the planning component, there is an absence of operational research to support
formulation of HHR policies and strategies as well as monitoring and control of HRM indicators.
There have been significant advances in the design of HR policies, which must be reviewed and
updated. A national guideline to estimate HHR needs for the first level of care was designed and
validated; it is currently being approved by MoH. This guideline incorporates tools and
methodologies which were validated and applied by the HP project in Ucayali, Ayacucho and San
Martin.
6. For the work organization component, all RHDs show some progress in relation to the design of
managerial documents such as ROF, MOF, CAP and PAP. However, there have been few
advances in the development of procedure manuals for relevant processes. SERVIR, which is the
national authority for HRMS, has defined a methodology for the design of job profiles, and it has
been validated and applied by the HP project in Ayacucho and San Martin.
7. In the employment management component, the processes performed to date have not met all
the regulatory requirements for conducting a recruitment process. For example, most of the
contract files do not include standardized job profiles or the respective budget certification which
specifies and guarantees remunerative payment. Additionally, dissemination required by current
regulations is not being executed. Staff recruited as a result of this process does not receive the
appropriate induction because there is no responsible party to inform them of policy, rules, roles,
goals, vision, mission and values of the institution. This situation places new staff in institutional
limbo, creating conditions where personnel do not identify with institutional goals.
8. In the performance management component, despite having an organizational unit responsible
for the process, there is no designated person to manage this process. Additionally, a
management tool has not been developed or approved defining the methodology to evaluate the
performance of institution staff.

Abt Associates Inc. Activities undertaken to strengthen HRMS ▌pg. 101
9. The development management component demonstrates a poor level of implementation. Despite
having a promotion policy for stable staff, it is not being implemented. This policy needs to be
revised and improved to serve as a reference for more transparent and meritocratic processes.
Regarding capacity building, some regions have restrictions in training hired staff; in these
regions, training activities focus on professional staff.
10. Regarding the compensation management component, only SMT-RHD and Ayacucho have
salary scales for all first-level-of-care facilities. The scales are approved but have not yet been
implemented at the regional level in the case of SMT-RHD.
11. For the management of human and social relations component, there have been advances in
management of labor relations but slightly less progress in developing processes related to
organizational climate and culture as well as workplace health, safety and welfare.

Abt Associates Inc. Recommendations to implemente the HRMS at regional level ▌pg. 102
5. Recommendations to implement the HRMS at regional level
1. Diagnose the level of implementation of HRMS at different levels of management. Based on the
results, define critical processes to further develop improvement processes. It is important to
define whether the deficiency in the implementation of critical processes is due to deficiencies in
staff skills or lack of a standard.
2. Establish an organizational structure for HR offices that allows implementing all HRMS processes
by assigning each process to a particular party who is responsible for a defined position in the
new structure.
3. Define job profiles for the head of the HR office and all units established by the new structure.
4. Build the capacity of the HR office´s technical team through a specific program in management of
HRM tools and standards, according to the job profile defined, ensuring permanence of trained
personnel.
5. Strengthen HR offices at the regional and network level with competent and sufficient staff to
implement key HRMS processes and fulfill basic functions of the HR office.
6. Identify indicators for monitoring the implementation of HRMS at the RHD level.
7. Design, adapt or adopt documents or technical tools to improve the management of a given HRM
process. The HP project has designed and validated a HRM toolkit which can be used or adapted
according to the specific environment.
8. Design, adapt or adopt rules or policies when the proper functioning of a process requires the
approval of a regional standard.
9. Establish a workshop among the regional bodies that are involved with HRMS implementation.
Employ regional government HR Offices and the RHD HR Office to analyze the results obtained
in evaluating HRMS, and define improvement plans for the proper functioning of these processes
in accordance with SERVIR provisions.

d. Políticas. La presente Directiva se implementa en el marco de los Lineamientos
Generales de Política Regional de Gestión y Desarrollo del Potencial Humano en
Salud. Donde su Política 2 establece: “Planificación estratégica de recursos humanos,
para su distribución equitativa, de acuerdo al MAIS, el perfil demográfico, socio
cultural y epidemiológico de la Región, cautelando las condiciones de trabajo del
personal de salud”. La Dirección Regional de Salud es responsable de la
planificación territorial de los recursos, en coordinación con las unidades
desconcentradas. La elaboración de la presente directiva responde al siguiente marco
conceptual:
e. Marco conceptual:
Planificación de recursos humanos en salud: De acuerdo con la OMS la planificación
de RRHH en Salud consiste en la “Estimación del número de personas y los tipos de
conocimientos, habilidades y actitudes que requieren para alcanzar objetivos
sanitarios predeterminados y una determinada situación de salud”. El Ministerio de
Salud ha definido una propuesta de Sistema de Gestión Descentralizada de RRHH en
Salud, donde un primer subsistema está relacionado con la Planificación de RRHH. El
Objeto del Subsistema de Planificación de Recursos Humanos, involucra la definición
de necesidades, cuantitativas y cualitativas de recursos humanos a corto, medio y
largo plazo; contrastadas con las capacidades internas; así como las acciones que
deben emprenderse para cubrir la brecha identificada. La planificación de recursos
humanos comprende programar las necesidades de recursos humanos de la
organización y establecer los pasos necesarios para satisfacer esas necesidades.
Esta planificación es el primer paso de toda gestión efectiva de los recursos humanos.
El desafío de este subsistema es lidiar con la migración interna y externa de los
trabajadores de salud, así como la alta rotación del personal fundamentalmente la
falta de información. Resulta difícil hacer proyecciones en estos escenarios. La
planificación de los recursos humanos en salud debe estar estrechamente vinculada y
articulada con las políticas y estrategias institucionales, con el modelo de atención de
salud, el modelo de gestión, el modelo de organización de los servicios de salud,
entre otros. En este subsistema se plantean las siguientes interrogantes:
- ¿Hasta qué punto la capacidad de planificar las necesidades de recursos humanos
repercute en el desempeño de los mismos?
- ¿Se encuentran las personas adecuadas en los puestos adecuados?
- ¿Podemos pronosticar las exigencias actuales y futuras de recursos humanos?
- ¿Sabemos cómo y dónde identificar a las personas que poseen las aptitudes
necesarias para satisfacer esas necesidades?
- ¿Podemos vincular la misión y metas organizacionales con la planificación de
recursos humanos?
Los procesos principales que se desarrollan en este subsistema son:
Gestión de la información de recursos humanos: Un aspecto importante e
imprescindible para una adecuada planificación de recursos humanos y para el
cálculo de los requerimientos institucionales de recursos humanos es contar con
Policies, regulations and programmatic actions regarding human resources for health GHS-I-10-07-00003-00
Abt Associates Inc. Annex ▌pg. 147
información actualizada y confiable acerca de la cantidad y distribución de recursos
humanos en las diferentes unidades de la institución.
Diseño de políticas y planes para cubrir la brecha de recursos humanos en
salud: Para cubrir la brecha de recursos humanos en salud es necesario realizar un
análisis cuantitativo y cualitativo de necesidades de recursos humanos; un análisis de
la disponibilidad de recursos humanos; la definición de la brecha de recursos
humanos para la definición de estrategias que permitan cubrir la brecha identificada.
Las funciones principales del Subsistema de Planificación de RRHH en salud son:
Mantener actualizada la información de recursos humanos de la institución. Identificar
las necesidades de incorporación de personal en base a los planes y estrategias
institucionales. Diseñar estrategias, planes y políticas destinadas a cubrir las
necesidades de recursos humanos.
f. Enfoques. Se definen varios enfoques para determinar la dotación de RRHH en
Salud. Entre los tres principales más utilizados más utilizados son:
i. Basado en las necesidades de salud. Permite estimar necesidades futuras de RHUS
con base en necesidades de servicios de salud, ajustados por diversos criterios.
Satisface las necesidades de salud. Es lógico, consistente e independiente a la
utilización actual de servicios de salud, pero requiere de normas o estándares de
producción.
ii. Basado en la utilización futura de servicios de salud. Este enfoque proyecta
requerimientos futuros basados en el uso actual de los servicios de salud. Existen
pocos cambios en los ratios de utilización de una población específica. resultan ser
alcanzables financieramente sin embargo es una proyección del status quo cuyo
supuestos, inexactos, pueden ocasionar errores de cálculo por que no toma en
cuenta el nivel de acceso a servicios de salud.
iii. Basado en coeficientes de población. Proporción entre trabajadores de salud y
población. fácil de aplicar y entender, pero no permite explorar interacciones entre:
mezcla, distribución, productividad, resultados.
La selección de un enfoque dependerá de la disponibilidad de información confiable,
del nivel de decisión y del problema o restricción en la gestión de recursos humanos
que se pretende resolver.
g. Metodología. La metodología para la estimación de la dotación de recursos humanos
en salud desde la Micro red está basado en las necesidades de salud, con las
siguientes características:
1. Se basa en la estimación de la probabilidad de ocurrencia de casos, por grupo
etáreo, para una población determinada.
2. Para cada caso y sus respectivas variantes, se definen los procedimientos
asistenciales involucrados, en base a las normas vigentes.
3. Para cada procedimiento se establecen los tipos de RRHH que intervienen y el
tiempo que dedica cada uno de ellos a cada procedimiento, basado en las
normas vigentes.
4. Toma en cuenta el tiempo realmente disponible para la prestación
5. Permite ajustes de acuerdo a la capacidad resolutiva actual y potencial en el
corto plazo

Abt Associates Inc. Annex ▌pg. 148
6. Permite calcular los requerimientos de recursos humanos ajustado en función
al nivel de ruralidad del distrito donde se ubican los establecimientos de salud.
7. Permite introducir la cantidad actual de recursos humanos en el
establecimiento de salud, para determinar la brecha que es necesario cubrir.
8. Permite contar con cuadros finales de análisis que permiten una mejor
asignación de los recursos humanos al interior de la microrred.
La metodología para el análisis de necesidades de recursos humanos en salud
desde la microrred comprende los factores que intervienen entre la disponibilidad
de recursos y la producción de servicios. Los cuales están relacionados con:
a. La productividad de los recursos humanos y su rendimiento
b. El tiempo realmente utilizado en la prestación de servicios de salud
c. La distribución de la carga de trabajo
d. La accesibilidad geográfica para la asignación territorial.
VI. DISPOSICIONES ESPECÍFICAS:
Para realizar los cálculos de dotación de recursos humanos en salud para el primer nivel de
atención, cada microrred contará con un aplicativo en excell. Las hojas de cálculo
destinadas para la estimación tienen tres partes:
(i) La parte superior para introducir los datos;
(ii) La parte intermedia, para el procesamiento automáticamente de los datos
relacionados con:
El listado de los procedimientos asistenciales por tipo de establecimiento de salud.
Las fórmulas que calculan automáticamente la cantidad de procedimientos en un
año, en base a la población asignada.
Las fórmulas que calculan automáticamente los tiempos que cada proveedor
destina al total de procedimientos.

Abt Associates Inc. Annex ▌pg. 150
Ejemplo:
Población 1,737
c. Datos de los proveedores: Para cada uno de los tipos de proveedores de servicios
asistenciales de salud, se deberá consignar la siguiente información:
a. Horas disponibles para la prestación del paquete básico de atención.- Se
refiere al tiempo que debe destinar el proveedor en el año, para la prestación
de los servicios de salud individual. En el caso del ejemplo que coloca líneas
abajo, de las 1800 horas que tiene el médico al año, solo destina 1346 horas
para los procedimientos establecidos, el resto del tiempo lo dedica a sus
vacaciones, capacitación, tareas administrativas, etc.. Estos tiempos serán
asignados por la DIRESA, dependiendo del tipo de establecimiento de salud.
b. Dotación actual de recursos humanos.- Aquí se consignará la cantidad de
personal por tipo de grupo ocupacional que se encuentra laborando en el
establecimiento de salud al momento de realizar la estimación de la dotación
de recursos humanos. Por ejemplo, no considerar al personal destacado.
c. Remuneración anual - Personal contratado (nuevos soles).- Deberán
consignar la remuneración anual, según lo establecido en la directiva vigente
de la escala salarial para el personal contratado.
d. Remuneración anual - Personal nombrado (nuevos soles).- Deberán
consignar la remuneración anual, según lo establecido en las planillas del
personal nombrado.
Ejemplo:
Médico
CirujanoEnfermera Obstetra
Horas disponibles para la prestación del paquete básico de atención 1346 1322 1322
Dotación actual de recursos humanos 2 2 2
Remuneración anual - Personal contratado (nuevos soles) 38,400.00 19,200.00 19,200.00
Remuneración anual - Personal nombrado (nuevos soles) 50,671.72 25,689.04 25,689.04
d. Índice de ajuste de productividad por ruralidad: En este recuadro deberán colocar
los índices de ajustes establecidos para cada uno de los establecimientos de salud,
los mismos que se encuentran en el Anexo 1 de esta directiva24. Esta información
será permanentemente revisada por la DIRESA y su actualización será distribuida
en la directiva correspondiente.

Resultados a nivel del establecimiento de salud: Una vez que se han ingresado los
datos, los resultados aparecerán automáticamente al final de la hoja de cálculo respectiva.
Los resultados que aparecerán son los siguientes:
Ejemplo:
TOTAL DE HORAS NECESARIAS 804.60 3,028.85 942.06
Médico
CirujanoEnfermera Obstetra
RRHH NECESARIOS SIN AJUSTE 0.60 2.29 0.71
RRHH AJUSTADOS POR RURALIDAD 0.95 3.64 1.13
DOTACIÓN ACTUAL 2.00 2.00 2.00
BRECHA DE RRHH SIN AJUSTE -1.40 0.29 -1.29
BRECHA DE RRHH CON AJUSTE -1.05 1.64 -0.87
a. Total de horas necesarias: Lo que aparece es el total de horas al año que se requiere
para la prestación de todos los procedimientos, por cada tipo de proveedor. En el
ejemplo que se muestra a continuación, se requiere un total de 804.6 horas del Médico
Cirujano para todas las atenciones previstas.
b. RRHH necesarios sin ajuste: Se efiere al número de RRHH que se requiere para
realizar todos los procedimientos establecidos para la población asignada. Esta
cantidad resulta de dividir el “Total de horas necesarias” entre la cantidad de “Horas
disponibles para la prestación del paquete básico de atención”. En el ejemplo que se
muestra, se requieren 804.6 horas del Médico que divididas entre las 1346 horas
disponibles, nos dan 0.60 médicos.
c. RRHH ajustados por ruralidad: La cantidad de “RRHH necesarios sin ajuste” se divide
entre el “Índice de ajuste de productividad por ruralidad” para tener una nueva
estimación de requerimientos de RRHH ajustados por el nivel de ruralidad del distrito
donde se ubica el establecimiento de salud. En el ejemplo que se muestra, los 0.6
médicos que se necesitan, se dividen entre 0.63 que es su índice de ajuste por
ruralidad, y sale una nueva estimación: 0.95 médicos.
d. Dotación actual: Es una copia de la información introducida en la parte superior de la
hoja de cálculo.
e. Brecha de RRHH sin ajuste: Resulta de realizar la resta de “RRHH necesarios sin
ajuste” menos la “dotación actual”. En el ejemplo, el EESS necesita 0.6 médicos y tiene
2 médicos, lo que significa que tiene una sobredotación de 1.40 médicos (sale en
negativo). Si se observa el caso de las enfermeras, se requieren 2.29 enfermeras y se
tienen 2, por lo que faltan 0.29 enfermeras.
f. Brecha de RRHH con ajuste: Resulta de realizar la resta de “RRHH necesarios con
ajuste” menos la “dotación actual”. En el ejemplo, el EESS necesita 0.95 médicos
ajustados por ruralidad y tiene 2 médicos, lo que significa que tiene una sobredotación
de 1.05 médicos (sale en negativo). Si se observa el caso de las enfermeras, se
requieren 3.64 enfermeras (con el ajuste)y se tienen 2, por lo que faltan 1.64
enfermeras.
g. Información complementaria: Conociendo la brecha por cubrir y la remuneración
anual, se puede obtener el costo de cubrir la brecha.

Con personal nombrado -53,263.99 42,045.00 -22,320.73
h. Resultados a nivel de la microrred: Un visión global de la situación de dotación de
recursos humanos a nivel de la MR se observa en la hoja de cálculo “Comparativo”,
donde se puede observar de manera integrada la infomación de todos los EESS de la
MR.
La matriz que se observará contiene la columna EESS donde están todos los EESS
de esa MR, con sus respectivas poblaciones. Para cada grupo ocupacional, se
tienen los siguientes indicadores:
- RRHH necesarios ajustados por ruralidad (A).
- Dotación actual (B)
- Brecha de RRHH (A-B)
- Ratio de carga laboral (B/A): Es un indicador para la gestión de RRHH que nos
mide la magnitud de la carga de trabajo que tiene el prestador. Lo deseado es
que el resultado sea “1”; un número mayor a “1” indica “sobredotación”, un
número menor a “1” indica “sobrecarga de trabajo”; mientras mas cerca de “0”
mayor sobrecarga. Por ejemplo, los 2 médicos del PS Chaviña realizan el trabajo
que debe ser realizado por solo 1 médico (0.95), lo que da un ratio de carga
laboral de 2.11, al ser mayor a “1” indica que hay “sobredotación de médicos en
PS Chaviña”. En el caso de las enfermeras, las 2 que están actualmente en el
CS Chaviña están cargado el trabajo que deberían realizar las casi 4 enfermeras
que se necesitan, lo que da un ratio de carga laboal de 0.55, al ser menor a “1”
indica que hay “sobrecarga”.
- Ratio x 10000 habitantes (B/pob*10000): Es un indicador que es útil para
poblaciones grandes, pero que no ayuda mucho para las poblaciones pequeñas
que existen a nivel de EESS.
Nota: Se mantiene este indicador, ya que estas matrices pued ser usadas a nivel
de Redes y DIRESA.

El análisis de esta tabla debe realizarse a nivel de la MR. Por ejemplo, esta MR requiere
5.18 médicos, es decir 6 médicos. La pregunta es ¿Dónde asigno a estos 6 médicos?. Si
solo analizo las cantidades puedo decir que requiero colocar médicos en los 6 EESS con
cifras mayores, pero debo tomar en cuenta otras variables como:
- Ubicación del EESS
- Tipo de contrato del personal.
- Nivel de producción del EESS.
La siguiente tabla muestra cómo se modifican los resultados con la reasignación.
