Abstract
This document outlines the PUB 223 Public Sector Human Resource Management supplementary examination from October/November 2024 at the University of Fort Hare. The exam is 3 hours long and worth 100 marks. It comprises three main questions, each focusing on critical aspects of human resource management within the public sector, particularly local government. Question 1 addresses career management, requiring advice on initiatives for professionalizing the South African public service through effective career management, education, and learning in a rapidly changing environment. Question 2 focuses on strategic planning in the public service, asking for a report on how human resource management contributes to the effective and efficient implementation of municipal strategic plans, including an analysis of HR's contribution to organizational effectiveness and advice on approaches for identifying, attracting, and recruiting competent employees. Question 3 presents a case study on performance appraisal within a district municipality, highlighting issues of management style, employee motivation, and labor relations. Based on this case study, it requires advice on strategies for involving workers in decision-making and task execution, and instruments to replace financial incentives for employee motivation amidst financial strain.
