Tóm tắt

Bài báo này nhằm mục đích xem xét những tác động của sáng kiến chính sách giá trị tốt nhất đối với chức năng nguồn nhân lực trong chính quyền địa phương Scotland. Bài báo sẽ kiểm tra xem liệu giá trị tốt nhất có cung cấp cho chức năng nguồn nhân lực cơ hội và khả năng thực hiện một cách chiến lược, thay vì theo cách phản ứng và tình thế hay không. Ngoài ra, bài báo cũng sẽ xem xét xem liệu chính sách này có cho phép chức năng nguồn nhân lực (HR) chuyển từ những hoạt động cơ học, lặp đi lặp lại mà các chuyên gia HR báo cáo chiếm nhiều thời gian của họ, sang những nhiệm vụ “mềm” hơn, tư vấn hơn liên quan đến chức năng nguồn nhân lực.
