Workforce Strategy

Local government and its partners are aiming to transform the effectiveness of public services. This will only be achieved through their employees and their interaction with local communities.

The local government workforce strategy provides a useful national overview of priority issues. Developing a local strategy will help you to make key choices about how best to invest in your people to deliver change.

Through workforce planning, you can clearly see the gap between what you will need from your people - numbers, skills, attitudes and behaviours - and where they are now.

Our online self assessment tool will help you to review your progress, identify priority actions and help you to share learning with colleagues.
