Critical questions
1. How many of you would like to eat in a
restaurant without standards?
2. Or stay in a hotel without standards?
3. Or send your child to a school (or pre-
school) without standards?
4. Or get operated in a hospital without any
standards?
5. Or drive a car without standards?
6. Or use an airline without standards?
Then when it comes to HR …
Why do we continue to
manage people and govern
the most precious part of our
organisations (i.e. people)
without standards?
Top facts about HR

CEOs (PwC).
• Only 18% of CEOs feel confident that they
have the right people in place to execute
strategy (CEB).

business (HCI Africa).

growth.

• South African National HR Standards
Why a national HR Standard?
• We need to improve the quality of HR
practice.
• HR will not be seen as a true profession
without standards.
• Inconsistencies – practices, sites, business
units, companies, industries.
• Too many bad examples of things going
wrong – Marikana, Medupi.
• Raising the bar for the HR profession and
business impact.
Myths about standards
• Impose an onerous compliance regime
• Duplicate best practices
• Our company is so unique syndrome
• Standards stifle innovation
• Take flexibility away
• Ignore industry differences
• Too practical, not based on theory/research
Types of standards
• Unit standards / Curriculum standards
• Service delivery standards
