Leading the Public Service to Higher Productivity Outline of presentation Introduction Trends Representation of people with disabilities across all levels and representation of women at SMS per province per departments. Conclusion

Leading the Public Service to Higher Productivity Introduction Cabinet’s decisions to achieve 50% of women at SMS and 2% of people with disabilities across all levels has not been met. Against this background, the CD: TPP has doubled efforts to tightly monitor departments and provide technical assistance on employment equity. Following the development and implementation of the Gender Equality Strategic Framework and the JobAccess, the CD embarked on several interventions such as paying visits to departments to provide individual attention. The CD developed templates to guide the implementation planning and reporting on the frameworks. These reporting requirements have been incorporated in the MPAT process of the Department for Monitoring and Evaluation. The CD has also introduced a system to closely monitor; particularly those departments that remain below 30% for women at SMS and 1% for People with Disabilities. Such departments were requested to draw remedial plans that outline how they were going to remedy their situation.

Leading the Public Service to Higher Productivity Conclusion From the figures in the previous slide, it is evident that there are more women in the Public Service than men. There are departments that have achieved and or exceeded the mark meaning that this can be done by all other departments. The DPSA will continue to implement strategies to assist departments to meet targets. There is a need for the Committee and or Cabinet to call to account all HODs whose departments have not shown any progress and are still below 30% of the required 50% women at SMS, and 1% of the required 2% for people with disabilities.
