Human Resources

Your staff are one of your most important resources – without them, Council’s priorities will not be implemented and services to the community will not be provided. In the increasingly competitive job market in the NWT, it is challenging to attract staff and also to retain staff in their positions once you have found them. Human resource planning is important in accomplishing this and making staff feel valued. Components of human resource development include:

  • Human Resource Planning
  • Job descriptions
  • Recruitment and selection
  • Orientation
  • Performance evaluation
  • Training and Development
