The synthesized study for development of working efficiencys good practice model for the local Administrative Organizations Officials in Trat Province
Abstract:
The objective of this research was to study a guideline of good practice on personnel
administration, identify problems and suggest ways to develop the good practice model
on personnel administration for the local administrative organizations officials that were
using the sub district municipality model in Trat province. Our focus was on:
-Human Resource Planning
-Recruitment and Selection
-Human Resource Development
-Motivation
-Performance Appraisal
-Quality of Work Life
The researchers employed the qualitative research by studying from four sources:
documents, in-dept interviews, observations and focus group interviews. The sample
was officials in local administrative organizations that were administrators (mayor) and
municipal employers.
The study found that the personnel administration had to follow the criterion and
condition according to the announcement of the commission on sub district municipality
personnel of Trat province who suggested the following:
-Human Resource Planning: To find the good personnel in terms of quality and
quantity of planning, the government had to clarify the process which they indicated in
determining Plans and Process of Decentralization to Local Government Organization
Act BE 2542 (1999) which stated that the personnel should disseminate personnel from
central.
-Recruitment and Selection: The personnel working in the municipality, the
university and in the local area or region should be responsible for conducting the test.
For selecting an employee, hirers should develop a test to create a standard that will
provide validity by inviting the experts to be the committee on recruiting and selecting.This would ensure that the process of the recruitment and selection would be based
upon the merit system.
-Human Resource Development: The mayor should realize the importance of
employee development and implement the employee development plan that has deep
roots in academia. Provided a sufficient budget for developing the employee, this would
ensure and justify the system of the recruitment process, and place emphasis on the
service-mind, teamwork and on building a good relationship in the work place.
-Motivation: The suggestion on motivation should regard the social welfare
values that go beyond money. However, motivation to the employee should be based
on individual equity, performance and/or the satisfaction of the people who received the
service.
-Performance Appraisal: These guidelines should be provided to every employee
and included in the handbook that has information on policy, goals and details of the
evaluation process. This would allow all employees to perform according to the
handbook and would decrease conflict within the organization. To evaluate the success
of the project, plan or mission of the organization, administrators should consider the
output which both the evaluator and evaluate agreed upon. The criterion and indicators
used could further the evolution and develop transparency. They should provide a
training course for the evaluators on how to educate others on the right ways of
conducting an evaluation. They should know the mechanics for retesting and on how to
handle a refusal. The 360-degree evolution method should be employed and would be
beneficial in improving the personnel administration on other aspects -such as the
planning for personnel development or promotion.
-Quality of Work Life: They should pay attention to the effect the environment has
in the community and on the quality of life within the work place. The effect of the work
on the environment and the community is an important area that addresses the safety
and health in the work place. They should educate employees on these topics: How to
have a healthy mind and how to reduce the stress that can result from work.
