Regional ministers, directors sign 2023 Performance Contract

Regional Ministers and Regional Coordinators on Thursday met to sign the Office of the Head of the Local Government Services’ (OHLGS) 2023 Performance Contract (P.C).

The Local Government Service also reviewed proposed Key Performance Indicators (KPI) for the year.

The Performance Contract is part of a Performance Management System (PMS) instituted by the Local Government Service to improve performance, enhance productivity, develop competencies, increase job satisfaction, and achieve the full potential of all staff in the Service in line with the Local Governance Act, 2016 (Act 936).

Taking the podium, the Chief Director of the OHLGS, Felicia Dapaah explained the need for the meeting.

According to her, the purpose of the gathering is to “sensitise regional ministers and coordinating directors on areas covered under the 2023 performance contract and to solicit your inputs to fine-tune the indicators.”

“We hope that the 2023 performance contract will trigger a more objective dialogue about the development of the regions and prioritise areas of administration, human resource management, financial management, reporting and services,” she added.

She further urged the RMs and RCDs “to make the local government performance management system reliable for accessing the performance of staff.”

She also charged RCDs to support MMDAs by coordinating, auditing and providing technical support to ensure that signing ceremonies at the various RCDs also become relevant.

According to her, the performance contract has been designed to help RCDs perform their roles and responsibilities effectively.

On his part, the Minister-designate of State at the Local Government Ministry, Osei Bonsu Amoah charged the regional ministers and directors to work hard to create a trustworthy service.

He also called for more collaboration toward the removal of bottlenecks to ensure the creation of synergy through planning.

In a related development, O.B Amoah said if the regional ministers and directors fail to achieve the Key Performance Indicators (KPI), they risk not being promoted.

“.. Obviously, if you don’t deliver, then your promotion becomes a problem. If you don’t deliver and you will not be marked as required under the contract and under the law, it can go against you as far as evaluation is concerned,” he said.
