Human Resources and Skill Development

Background

Membership of the National Federation’s Operational Human Resources Group is open to all human resources personnel across National Federation member organisations.  The Group is chaired by Ms. Olive Leonard, Director of Human Resources, Muiriosa Foundation, and its primary role is to ensure that National Federation members are supported to tackle key human resource issues and address the human resources related provisions contained in relevant national policy documents / agreements.

The group concentrates on the overarching human resource issues facing the sector and addressing the human resources related proposals outlined in key national policy documents / action plans while also focusing on ‘day-to-day’ operational human resources issues.  The group aims to provide a forum through which issues can be discussed, information shared and positions developed in relation to key human resource matters.  The group is a key consultation forum within the National Federation of Voluntary Bodies through which members can debate and reach agreement on human resource policy related issues.
