Glossary

Human Resources for Health (HRH - synonyms are health manpower, health personnel, or health workforce). HRH denotes persons engaged in any capacity in the production and delivery of health services. These persons may be paid or volunteers, with or without formal training for their functions, individuals engaged in the promotion, protection, or improvement of population health, including clinical and non-clinical workers.

Human resources planning “...is the process of estimating the number of persons and the kinds of knowledge, skills, and attitudes they need to achieve predetermined health targets and ultimately health status objectives” (WHO, 1978). Over the years this function has been broadened to include that of formulating human resources policy, in which the word ”policy” refers to statements made by relevant authorities that are intended to guide the allocation of resources and effort. Health services and human resources policies constitute key instruments for implementing decisions affecting the delivery of health care.

Human Resources Production refers to “all aspects related to the basic and post-basic education and training of the health labour force. Although it is one of the central aspects of the health manpower (development) process, it is not under the health system’s sole control” (WHO, 1978). The production system includes all the health system’s educational and training institutions, which are increasingly the joint responsibility of service and educational institutions.

Human Resources Development (HRD) is the process of developing and improving the capacity, ability, skills and qualifications of an organization’s staff to a level required by the organization to accomplish its goals. As applied to human resources for health (HRH), it includes the planning, production, and post-service training and development health personnel.

Human Resources Management has been defined as the “mobilization, motivation, development, and fulfilment of human beings in and through work” (WHO, 1978). It “... covers all matters related to the employment, use, deployment and motivation of all categories of health workers, and largely determines the productivity, and therefore the coverage, of the health services system and its capacity to retain staff” (Ibid). Typical HRM functions include recruitment, staff performance evaluation, work analysis and the development of position descriptions, remuneration policy and practice, and occupational health and safety policy and practice. Strategic HRM is the development and implementation of personnel policies and procedures that directly support the achievement of an organization’s goals and objectives.

Labour Market is an informal market where workers find paying work, employers find willing workers, and where wage rates are determined. Labour markets may be local or national (even international) in their scope and are made up of smaller, interacting labour markets for different qualifications, skills, and geographical locations. They depend on exchange of information between employers and job seekers about wage rates, conditions of employment, level of competition, and job location (Business dictionary. com)

Operational Planning: is related to the implementation of the strategies on a day-to-day basis for example, if training more staff is the strategy selected for improving staffing in remote facilities; the operational planning would include the start date for training courses and the number of tutors needed. (Martineau and Caffrey, 2008) Workforce plan: is an integral part of the strategic plan, it enables senior managers to scan and analyse human resources (HR) data routinely, determine relevant policy questions and institute policies to ensure that adequate numbers of staff with appropriate skills are available where and when they are needed. Workforce planning supports the overall HRH strategic plan within the constraints of available resources. This usually has significant implications for training and the planning for training institutions or recruitment campaigns if suitable prospective staff exists in the labour market (King and Martineau, 2006)

Health Workers Productivity: percentage of observed time spent doing one of the eight “productive” activities including: Direct patient care; Indirect care; Outreach; Administration; Meetings; Training; Cleaning, preparation, Maintenance; and Personal hygiene (The Zanzibar Health Care Worker Productivity Study, 2010)

Foreword

Human Resource for Health (HRH) is a key component for delivery of quality health and social welfare services to all the people wherever they are. Yet, most countries suffer serious shortages of this important component. In Tanzania, the shortage of HRH&SW is now considered and dealt with as a national crisis requiring continuous and collaborative attention.

This strategic plan provides a framework and clear path toward the attainment of adequate and competent health and social welfare workforce that is motivated and equitably distributed to all parts of the country. Five core values identified in the document require serious attention if this plan is to be turned into a reality which will benefit the people of Tanzania. These are:

• Production of quality workforce with competence and skills mix that commensurate with demand of the time

• Distribution of health workers equitably to all levels in right numbers, with right skills at the right time

• Ensure continuous provision of incentives to all health workers at the right time to stimulate work commitment and performance

• Ensure constant supportive supervision and performance monitoring and evaluation for skills improvement and rewards

• Guaranteed working environment that promote attraction, retention and performance of health workforce at all levels and all places

This Strategic Plan has been developed with a view to creating an enabling environment to promote participation of key Human Resource for Health and Social Welfare stakeholders in addressing human resource crisis in the health sector. It categorise HRH&SW issues and challenges into the six key areas to facilitate the measurement of expected results. These are: HRH planning and policy, HRH&SW research, Leadership and Advocacy, HRH&SW management, Production and Quality of HRH&SW, and Partnership. It is the hope of the government that effective intervention and inputs to the aforementioned areas will enable attainment of the expected HRH targets identified in this strategic plan.

Moreover, it is important to notice that this strategic plan is based on what we know today. Since change is constant, we can only hope for the better given our current situation. Nevertheless whatever these changes will bring in, we must be prepared and determined to adjust our plan so that it will continue to be a guiding light for the effective and efficient production and use of our health workforce to provide better health and social welfare services to all the people we serve.

Executive Summary

This Human Resource for Health and Social Welfare Strategic Plan sets out strategies and options for implementation from 2014 to 2019. The strategies focus on moving the country from the HRH&SW crisis to the improved HRH&SW situation in the country. Overall, the Plan guides the health sector in proper planning, development, management and effective utilization of human resources.

There has been much achievement in the implementation of the previous HRH strategic plan 2008-2013. The remarkable achievement includes expansion of health and social welfare training institutions, increasing enrolment, transformation to competence based curriculum by health training institutions, opening of the closed down training institutions, and reduction of the HRH&SW shortage to the current 52%, just to mention but a few. However, as the shortage level indicates, there is still much to be done to increase the quantity, quality, and utilization of HRH&SW. As geographical distribution favours urban areas, special attention is required in rural areas.

The development process of this plan followed participatory and interactive approaches for purposes of ensuring comprehensiveness and wider ownership. It involved reviews of various relevant documents, series of consultations and interviews with key informants, and working sessions with multi-level stakeholders, including key staff from the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare (MoHSW), Prime Minister’s Office Regional Administration and Local Government (PMORALG), Ministry of Finance (MoF), and President’s Office Public Service Management (POPSM). Other stakeholders were from Development Partners, Major Programs, Governmental and Non – Governmental Institutions, Professional Councils and Associations, Private Sector, Regional and Councils Health Management Teams (HMTs/CHMTs) and health workers. The Plan had finally to incorporate the HRH Production Plan 2014-2024, which was developed using the Supply, and Requirements Projection Model developed by WHO.

The plan identifies six Strategic Objectives that will be the focus of achievement in the next five years. These are:

1. Strengthen HRH&SW policy development and planning at all levels

2. Strengthen HRH&SW research and utilization at all levels

3. Promote leadership and advocacy for HRH&SW at all levels

4. Strengthen HRH&SW recruitment, retention, career development and utilization at all levels

5. Increase and standardize production and quality of HRH&SW

6. Strengthen/promote partnerships and coordination of HRH&SW interventions among stakeholders at all levels

These strategic objectives are translated into a number of operational strategies, long-, medium- and short-term targets and activities for accomplishment. Performance indicators are further established for measuring performance of the program and progress against the set objectives and targets as part of ongoing monitoring and evaluation.

The successful implementation of the strategic plan will highly depend on continuous commitments and collaborative efforts of key stakeholders from government sector, non-governmental sector and development partners. It also requires dedication and focus of staff and managers of relevant ministries and the health sector in particular to stimulate, energize and coordinate the incoming efforts to produce results in the short-, medium- and longer-term. Creating demand to improve utilization by end-users, including individuals, households and communities will be a crucial part of measuring success of implementation.

Chapter One:

Introduction

Human Resources for Health (HRH) are a very important component of the health sys¬tem in any country. Recently HRH has received much attention because of challenges associated with obtaining, maintaining and managing health workers for effective and efficient functioning of the health system. The global shortage and crisis in HRH has been increasingly recognized as a factor crippling health systems and jeopardizing curative, rehabilitative, preventive and health promotion efforts.

Health workforce is also known to absorb a great share of the health budget. This fact provides ground for giving more focused attention to HRH issues. Therefore, human resource planning is regarded as an entry point to define and address health workforce issues. This third strategic plan for HRH&SW in Tanzania is introduced with the aim of guiding the efforts and further work in developing human resource plans at different levels of the health system in a comprehensive approach that considers all dimensions of HRH&SW. The plan defines the priorities of HR issues; and accordingly recommends strategic goals and objectives to improve HRH&SW policies, planning, production, distribution and HR management systems to improve individual performance and training services.

The United Republic of Tanzania was highly committed in addressing HRH issues in the previous strategic plan. However, alleviating HRH crisis is a long-term endeavour needing clear milestones and addressing the health systems issues holistically. Tanzania still records a serious shortage of Human Resources for Health and Social Welfare (HRH&SW). The levels of shortage varied over time since independence in 1961, with the sharp increase of the crisis being observed between 1994 and 2002 when the government implemented the civil service reforms policy of 1990s. Such policy reforms involved the retrenchment and employment freeze that focused on cutting down public expenditure. It also resulted to strict adherence to the wage bill, which restricted the amount of fund that can be allocated to most activities including the workforces’ related issues. As a result of the policy reforms, the country’s national health systems suffered extensively from loss of experienced and skilled health workers.

Other contributing factors to the sharp decline included: weak planning and forecasting of Human Resources for Health (HRH) requirements; inadequate involvement of key stakeholders, including end-users of the health care system in HRH planning and brain drain within and outside the country. The Ministry of Health and Social Welfare (MoHSW) acknowledges that the problem of brain drain is not well understood and thus calls for an urgent need to put in place a mechanism to monitor health professional’s movement within and outside the country.

The severity of the problem made the government to announce the shortage of HRH- as national crisis; with intention to express its commitments and call for collaborative effort. The announcement stimulated development of strategies and intervention that focused on increasing production, quality and recruitment of HRH graduates. As a result a number of health training institutions were expanded to double the intake; enrolment of health cadres was increased almost to double; teaching and learning materials such as skills laboratories were equipped and improved; health curricula were changed from non to competence based; some of the closed down training schools such as Nachingwea Nurse Training School was opened also; Emergency Hiring Project was implemented. Despite such development HRH crisis remains a distant dream. In 2005-Joint Annual Sector Review Meeting, the Ministry of Health (MoH) reported the HRH crisis to have reached an emergency proportion. This is an indication that the shortage of HRH is still high- for reasons associated to higher demands on the health sector and higher attrition rates. To date, it is estimated that the shortage of Human Resources for Health is about 56%. The shortage varies across regions, districts and facilities. According to the MoHSW data, the shortage of HRH is more severe in rural areas.

Similarly, the Social Welfare commission, which was moved to the Ministry of Health in 2005, is also suffering the same human resource crisis. The extreme shortage of the social welfare staff is caused mainly by three factors: Retrenchment Policy of 1993, Decentralization Policy which required Social Welfare services to be rolled out to the lower levels which was previously rendered at Central and Zonal level. Similarly, the scheme of services does not allow employment of lower level Social Welfare cadres such as certificate and diploma holders. Since most of the graduates from the Institute of Social Work Dar es Salaam, the only institute that produces the degree level of social welfare cadres, are either absorbed in the private sector or unwilling to work at the lower levels, made the problem more complicated. Such, situation underscores the urgent need for appropriate strategies to address the problem.

1.1 Rationale for the Plan and Strategic Objectives

To date, the shortage of Human Resources for Health and Social Welfare remains a crisis in Tanzania. It has seriously impinged on various health initiatives and attainment of health goals. This strategic plan is therefore developed to call for more collaborative effort to address HRH crisis in the country. It provides guidance on key issues to be addressed in relation to HRH production, planning, development, management, utilization and monitoring of HR within the Health Sector and Social Welfare. The Strategic plan is also used as a coordinating and integrating instrument among various HRH&SW stakeholders. In overall, this plan facilitates the extension and sustainability of results obtained from implementation of previous HRH strategic plans. It is expected to contribute to the improvement of human resource financing by providing comprehensive budgets and identifying ways of mobilizing adequate resources from all stakeholders. As such it will assist the country to achieve the right number of health and social welfare workers, with the requisite knowledge and skills that are effectively managed and are equitably distributed to ensure that national health goals are attained. Currently, the health status of the country is as shown in the health indicators below;

1.2 Burden of Disease and Main Causes of Death

High burden of disease remains a major challenge facing the health sector. The life expectancy has remained below 55 years on average. In spite of a decline in infant and under five mortality, overall Maternal Mortality Ratio (MMR) and prevalence of other major diseases like HIV/AIDS, Malaria and Tuberculosis remain high. New interventions such as Prevention of Mother to Child Transmission (PMTCT), Counselling and Testing, distribution of Insecticide Treated Nets (ITNs) has significantly increased health staff workload. In addition local and international governmental and non-governmental agencies and Programs involved in research and implementation of these interventions continue to take away staff from traditional health service delivery. The workforce requirements of most of these Programs are not provided for in the current staffing levels. The country also faces high incidence of non-communicable conditions such as cancers, diabetes, malnutrition and cardio-vascular diseases. Table 2 shows the main causes of morbidity and mortality in the country. The causes suggest the need for more health and social welfare workforce with skill mix.

1.3 Social Welfare Issues

There has been a rapid increase of social problems in Tanzania stimulated by a number of factors such as high population growth, socio-cultural changes, HIV/AIDS pandemic and poor socio- economic trends. The situation today is such that Social Welfare services are in great demand due to these increasing social problems, which are exacerbated by poverty, and the effects of HIV/AIDS. To date, the specific problems which need social welfare services interventions include child labour, early pregnancies, child abuse, child neglect and family rejection, alcohol and drug abuse, increasing levels of destitution, commercial sex (prostitution), cases of sexual assault, number of households headed by children and or elderly people. Other increasing social problems include family disintegration, marriage breakages, number of street children, number of orphans, vulnerable children, widows/widowers, elderly and human trafficking especially children, increasing number of children in conflict with the law, child truancy and single parenting.

Despite the fact that Social Welfare Commission has been in existence for many years there has not been much success in dealing with the identified social problems due to inadequate resources including human resource, infrastructure, finance and working facilities. This HRH&SW Strategic Plan provides a platform for improving Human Resources for Social Welfare, which is one of the key components for reduction of social stress contributing to poor health and, therefore, the plan contributes to attainment of better health for all.

1.4 Brief Overview of HRH Strategic Plan in Tanzania

In Tanzania, the first HRH Strategic Plan was developed 1996 and implemented between 1996 and 2001. The focus of the plan was mainly to elevate HRH issues to be recognised in the health sector reforms and decentralization. One of the major results of the plan has been the devolution of primary health services (i.e. district hospitals, health centres, dispensaries and other community based health services) including management of HRH to the local government authorities.

The second HRH strategic plan was developed in 2008 for the period 2008-2013. Unlike the previous strategic plan, the 2008-2013 HRHSP received attention of many stakeholders from government, nongovernmental institutions and international communities. It reinvigorated and complemented the efforts of the government through the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare (MoHSW) in addressing the crisis. The accomplishment of planned activities was about 70%. This success is the product of strong partnership of HRH actors- Table 3 illustrates accomplishment of activities by strategic objectives.

5HRH STRATEGIC PLAN 2014 – 2019

Thus, the development of HRH&SW strategic plan 2014-2019 builds on the two previous plans. It is enriched from the lessons learned and experiences gathered from implementation of the two HRH strategic plans.

1.5 Process for Development of HRH&SW Strategic Plan 2014-2019

The development of this strategic plan was interactive and participatory. It began with the assessment of the current situation to identify the existing HRH gaps and key issues that required new strategies. The situation analysis involved stakeholders’ consultation and review of relevant literature. The stakeholders were drawn from three levels, namely: local government levels, regional level and national level. The selected informants comprised of health services providers, implementers of various health and social welfare initiatives, Health and Social Welfare managers, beneficiaries, health and social welfare development partners, and policy makers. The information of the current situation was analysed and categorised into six thematic areas, namely: HRH Planning and Development; Education, Training and Development; Leadership and Advocacy; Management and HRH utilization; Research and Development; Partnership for Human Resource for Health. Each of the thematic areas covered four consistent information regarding strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats.

To ensure ownership and comprehensiveness of the plan, the situational analysis was conducted with the aid of the Core Group formed to undertake the process. The core group comprised of the key relevant staff from the MoHSW. Figure 2 illustrates the process for development of the 2014-2019 HRH&SW strategic plan.

Figure 1: The Process of Development of 2014-2019 HRH&SW Strategic Plan

As shown in figure 1 the process involved seven phases. Each phase was interactive with either the core group (members from MoHSW) or with identified HRH key stakeholders. The involvement of stakeholders in all stages provided a broader spectrum for identification of HRH issues at all levels. As such, HRH&SW strategic plan 2014-2019 is more evidence-based and comprehensive.

As the HRH&SW Plan 2014-2019 was being developed, the HRH Production Plan (HRHPP) 2014-2024 was also being developed. The HRHPP is a detailed plan developed on the basis of the supply and requirements projections made by applying the Supply and Requirements Projection Model developed by WHO. The projections are made basing on demographic and macro-economic projections and expected changes in the pattern of diseases and the vision, aspirations and expectations of policy makers of health services and health system of the future to meet the changing disease pattern and demands of the population in terms of access and quality of health care. The HRHPP has been incorporated into the HRH&SW Strategic Plan 2014-2019.

Chapter Two:

Operational Environment

2.1 Policy Context

The commitment by the government and international communities to address health problems is revealed in a number of policies and strategies. Such policies and strategies also call for optimal human resources to meet the envisaged strategic goals. These directional strategies and policies have been used to provide a framework and guidance for the development of this strategic plan. They provided not only a focus and key issues of concerns by various stakeholders that have been taken into account in the development of this plan but also a sense of commitment that facilitate implementation. Some of such policies and guidelines are outlined as follows:

Millennium Development Goals (MDGs):

The Millennium Development Goals aim at reducing child mortality by two-thirds, Maternal Mortality rate by three-quarters, combat HIV/AIDS Malaria and other diseases by controlling them by 2015. Human Resource strategic Plan has been developed to ensure availability of the necessary resources such as adequate health workforce to provide health services.

National Strategy for Growth and Reduction of Poverty:

The strategy advocates for improvement in the quality of life and well being of all Tanzanians. Human Resource for Health and Social Welfare Strategic Plan to a great extent has identified effective interventions that will have a direct impact on quality of life and well being such as immunization for children and control of diseases by ensuring availability of skilled workforce to provide quality services

Tanzania Development Vision 2025:

Tanzania Development Vision 2025 is a wider government official roadmap and a dream towards sustainable human development through achieving high quality livelihood for all. The vision identifies health and social welfare as a priority, and therefore the Human Resource Strategic Plan for Health and Social welfare has been developed to reflect vision 2025 for macro-policy linkage.

National Health Policy 2007:

The National Health Policy aims at implementing national and international commitments. These are summarized through policy vision, mission, objectives and strategies. The Health Policy vision is to have a healthy community, which will contribute effectively to development of individuals and the country as a whole. The mission is to facilitate provision of basic health services, which are proportional, equitable, good quality, affordable, sustainable and gender sensitive. The Human Resource Strategic Plan seeks to implement strategies related to human resource as outlined in the policy.

Primary Health Services Development Program (PHSDP), 2007 – 2017:

PHSDP aims at having a dispensary at every village, a Health Centre at every ward and a District Hospital at every District. The program requires the establishment and staffing of an additional 5162 dispensaries, 2074 health centres and 8 district hospitals. The Human Resource Strategic Plan compliments the effort to implement the program comprehensively through aligning all strategic factors related to human resources. Inculcating a care seeking behavior and increasing demand for services among communities is key to the success of the PHSDP. Evidences around the African continent show that providing health facilities and HRH within reach of the communities does not necessarily mean the community will automatically utilize the services. The demand must be generated through effective BCC strategies and this must be factored in the pre-service education and training of HRH. There are serious steps taken currently to increased community based services where formalization of community health workers is one of the key policy agenda

Page 18: HUMAN RESOURCE FOR HEALTH AND SOCIAL ... STRATEGIC PLAN 2014 2019 i THE UNITED REPUBLIC OF TANZANIA MINISTRY OF HEALTH AND SOCIAL WELFARE HUMAN RESOURCE FOR HEALTH AND SOCIAL WELFARE

7HRH STRATEGIC PLAN 2014 – 2019

The MMAM Programme will be implemented with the Managed Primary Health Care approach by undertaking a systematic development of dispensaries, health centres and district hospitals. That is, construction of new health facilities will be undertaken with care, by first ensuring that those already constructed are provided with competent staff with appropriate skills-mix, adequate medical supplies and equipment so that they function optimally, strengthening the referral system.

Human Resource Policy Guidelines – 2005:

Human Resource Policy major goal is to have a well-planned, trained deployed and motivated workforce. The Human resource Strategic Plan has set strategic intervention to address the policy goals

Social Welfare Policies and Legal Frameworks:

There are various policies and frameworks governing the provision of social welfare services in Tanzania. Both policies and frameworks demonstrate the government’s commitment and political will to extend social protection to all vulnerable groups. One of the key strategies emphasised in policy and framework documents focuses on strengthening the social welfare workforce. They stipulate that for effective implementation of the NCPA II and sustained provision of welfare services to the Most Vulnerable Children (MVC), Persons with Disability and The Elderly in Tanzania; it is crucially important to plan, train, develop, support, and manage the social welfare workforce.

The available policies and frameworks for social welfare services include the National Costed Plan of Action for Most Vulnerable Children NCPA II 2013-2017, The Law of the Child Act No.21 of 2009, The Law of Person with Disability act No.9 of 2010. Persons with Disability Act 2010, Disability Policy 2004 and the National Ageing Policy 2003.

Health Financing:

The HRH Production Plan 2014-2024 which is incorporated into the HRH&SW Strategic Plan is based on some macro economic assumptions and projections in funding for the health sector. The Government is expected to introduce new financing mechanisms that will raise the level of available finance for health personnel from 62% in 2014 to 66% in 2019. The share of the public sector budget as a percentage of the GDP is assumed to increase minimally to 14.4% by 2019. With the projected average annual change of GDP of 6%, this will give an average increase in personnel expenditure of 8.2%, which will allow for increase in staff numbers, staff pay and benefits and retention of staff in rural areas.

2.2 Institutional Arrangements of the National Health Systems

The national health system operates in a decentralized system of governance. It is organised in a referral pyramid, made up of three main levels namely, I) district level, II) regional level and III) National Level. The classification of private health facilities follows the criteria of the national health system.

District Level:

According to the current arrangement, the Local Government Authorities have full mandate for planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of health workers within the districts. The responsible structure for services delivery at this level is the Council Health Management Team (CHMT). The District Medical Officer (DMO) heads the CHMT as in charge of all District Health Services. The CHMT follows guidelines for planning and management of district health issued jointly by MOHSW, PMORALG and Ministry of Finance and Economic Affairs. The DMO is accountable to the Council Director on administrative and managerial matters, and responsible to the RMO on technical matters. The District Health Secretary (DHS) aids the DMO. The HRH needs for the districts are established in support of the CHMT by the management of the relevant health facilities i.e. dispensaries, health centre and the district hospital (or designated district hospital where the government owned hospital is not available) and forwarded to the council to be incorporated into the Comprehensive Council Health Plan. Once the plan is approved, it is the responsibility of CHMT to execute.

8 HRH STRATEGIC PLAN 2014 – 2019

Regional level:

The regional secretariat plays a linking role and oversight for Health services delivery in the region. At this level, the responsible structure for the Management of HRH issues is the Regional Health Management Team (RHMT) headed by the Regional Medical Officer. The RMO is the Assistants Administrative Secretary (AAS) of Health and therefore reports directly to the Regional Secretariat (RS). The RHMT is responsible for scrutinising the health plans in the region to ensure that they correspond to the national priorities and providing oversight to local governments. Besides, the RHMT provides technical support and oversight to the respective Regional Hospitals. The HRH issues such as acquisition and management are addressed through the Regional Referral Hospital Plan. The plan for the regional hospital is developed by the Regional Referral Hospital Management Team (RRHMT) and submitted to the regional secretariat of which RHMT is part, for scrutiny before it is forwarded to the relevant ministries.

National Level:

The MoHSW is charged with the responsibility of ensuring the provision of quality health services in the country. To accomplish this responsibility, the Ministry’s functions are divided into seven directorates, which include: Curative Services, Preventive Services, Human Resource Development, Policy and Planning, Social Welfare, Procurement and Supply and Administration and Personnel. As indicated in figure 1, these departments are further divided into sections for a more effective implementation as reflected in the organizational structure. Each of the department plays a crucial role in the management of HRH in terms of recruitment, promotion, development, retention, and utilization. It is important however to note that, though the Organization and Management of HRH functions are undertaken within the parameters of the MoHSW mandate, the overall management of the health system is a collaborative process that involves the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare (MoHSW); Presidents’ Office Regional Administration and Local Government (PMO-RALG); the Ministry of Finance and Economic Affairs the Ministry of Education and Vocational Training. The President’s Office Public Service Management (POPSM) controls all public sector employment and is responsible for determining and approving the pay and compensation packages and terms and conditions of employment in the public sector, Figure 2 shows the ministerial linkages of the overall management of the health system.

9HRH STRATEGIC PLAN 2014 – 2019

Under the current arrangements, the MoHSW has oversight function for the collection and analysis of human resource information including provision of statistical estimates of present and future human resource requirements at all levels of the health system. In addition, the Ministry provides technical support to the local authorities and regions to achieve their human resources requirements. Also the Ministry formulates policies, regulation and standards. Within the framework of the ongoing local government reforms, the district authorities have responsibilities for delivering health services including full responsibility for human resource within their areas of jurisdiction. The human resource management framework involves an extensive process requiring multiple decision-making steps, which are occasionally, time consuming and slow.

Ministry of Health and Social Welfare through its Social Welfare Commission is charged with the responsibility of ensuring the enhancement of the provision of comprehensive, accessible, high quality social welfare services to the people. The department has set some strategic areas for intervention, among them are:- Enhancement of quality of life of vulnerable individuals, groups and families; Early childhood care and development; and facilitation of the transformation of social welfare services.

The Social Welfare Commission has been moved to the Ministry of Health since 2005, it is therefore necessary to realign and harmonize its direction and interventions to the ongoing reforms and the decentralization policy requirements. The functional activities will now be done under the following levels; Central (MoHSW), Regional Secretariats, Districts, and specialized institutions. The Social Welfare Commission works in close collaboration with Ministry of Home Affairs, PMORALG, Ministry of Education, and courts of law.

The MoHSW also oversees autonomous agencies, such as the Tanzania Food and Drugs Authority (TFDA), Medical Stores Department (MSD), the Government Chemical Laboratory Agency (GCLA), National Institute for Medical Research (NIMR), Tanzania Food and Nutrition Centre (TFNC) and National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF). The MoHSW collaborates with donors and nongovernmental organizations on the implementation of public health programmes such as the Immunization for Vaccine Development (IVD), Reproductive and Child Health (RCH), National AIDS Control Programme (NACP), National Malaria Control Program (NMCP) and the National Tuberculosis and Leprosy programme (NTLP). The MoHSW also oversees National Hospitals, Consultant and Specialized Hospitals.

Health Services Boards and various community health committees (Health Facility Governing Committees, Community Health Fund Committees etc) have been formed to ensure community involvement in health service delivery and also contribute to the formulation, monitoring and evaluation of health plans.

2.3 Relationship between the Public Health System and the

Private Sector

The organization and management relationship between public and private sector is not well developed. Within the context of HRH management, the private and public sectors operate separately with minimal coordination. Planning, research, regulation, training, career path and compensation issues are also undertaken separately. The public sector staff has been seconded to support institutions providing Faith Based health services. In such instances, contracts have been managed within short-term parameters with government continuing the payment of salaries. Critical issues such as welfare benefits and related entitlement and tenure are often not clearly defined. Furthermore, the government provides grant in aid to FBO on contractual basis to support the running of the health facilities and training institutions depending on the priority needs. In addition, the government provides opportunities for in-service training to staff in both public and private/FBO sectors.

The training of health graduates professionals is done by Institutions of Higher learning under the Ministry of Education and Vocational Training. It involves working relationship between the institutions, MoEVT and the MoHSW. The contribution of non-governmental institutions in this area has been significant. As indicated in table 4, the institutions in the non-government sector have been providing a range of services that has largely complimented the government capacity to deliver health services in the country. Yet, the existing partnership between government and non-governmental institutions are inadequate to harness potentials of existing non-governmental institutions in the country. It is therefore crucial that partnership between the government and non-governmental institutions are strengthened to contribute more to the improvement of HRH&SW situation in the country.

In addition to what is indicated in table 4, there are other facilities provided by the private sector as complementary to the government. Such facilities include: pharmaceutical shops and industries, laboratories, radiological centres, physiotherapy, Dental services, Waste management, ambulance and logistics, laundry, and catering, just to mention but a few. For effective and efficient function, these facilities require adequate available health workers.

Chapter Three:

Current Situation

3.1 Human Resources for Health Policy and Planning

3.1.1 HRH Planning

Considerable development is recorded in the area of HRH planning. This includes capacity development at national level, employment of health secretaries in all councils, as well as strengthening of information system. In an effort to ensure the production of human resources is focused and is in line with national priorities, a production plan has been developed. The plan is meant to guide HRH production in terms of numbers and cadres. Despite these successes there are several challenges. First the devolution of HRH planning role to other levels is limited. Councils concentrate more on Personnel Emolument budgeting rather than HRH planning in general. Therefore more emphasis is given to projection of staff numbers and less attention is given to issues like succession plan and staff retention. Another challenge is the limited collection and sharing of human resource information from the private sector. Furthermore, there is limited technical capacity for analyzing human resource demands and supply projections and forecast.

3.1.2 HRH Policy

The MoHSW has the mandate for coordinating policy formulation, guidelines, standards and the identification of priorities in the health sector. The MoHSW also regulates the activities of private health sector through setting and monitoring standards for quality of care and training. In the last five years several policy guidelines focusing on training, career pathways and staffing norms were developed and introduced. The challenges in this area include delays in finalising drafted policies and guidelines which have had negative effect in dissemination, limited emphasis on evaluation of existing policies and guidelines and low utilization of existing evidence in the development process of new policies. Furthermore harmonisation, cross-referencing and analysis of influence of these policies to HRH are limited.

3.1.3 HRH Information System

To better inform HRH policy and planning, efforts were made by HRH development partners recently to obtain sensible HRH data and information. With support from Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), two information systems have been developed called Human Resource for Health Information System (HRHIS) and Training Institution Information System (TIIS). The former is for health facilities and the later is for training institutions. HRHIS is installed in all regions, councils and referral hospitals, and TIIS in all training institutions and universities that produce health professionals. The systems are capable of assisting users to collect quality information and help them generate varieties of reports from individual staff reports to country aggregate. However the system is not without challenges. Some of the existing challenges in executing the systems include:

• Difficulties in collecting HRH data from private and Faith Based Organization’s facilities

• Since the system is computerised- it is still challenging to some councils, which have not yet been connected to electric power supply.

• Familiarity of these tools by HR managers is minimal

• Motivation to utilize the system is low.

12 HRH STRATEGIC PLAN 2014 – 2019

3.2 HealthWorkforceProfileandDistribution

In 2013 there were a total of 6,876 Health facilities in the country. Out of these 5,913 are dispensaries, 711 are Health centres, 219 district level hospitals, 25 are Regional Referral Hospitals and 8 National, zonal and specialized hospitals. According to the new Staffing levels guideline (2014), the minimum number of health workers required to provide quality health services in these facilities is 145,454. The actual number of health workers available is 63,447 and the shortage is 82,007, which is about 56.38%. The number of workers required in the Health Training Institutions is 4,325 and only 2,820 are available, the shortage of workers in the health training colleges is 1,505 or 34.79%. There is a great challenge of rapidly aging workforce, which will exacerbate the crisis.

On the part of social welfare, a total of 437 social workers are available in the country, which is 13% of the requirement. The available social welfare workers are distributed in various levels of the government departments and institutions. The number of social welfare workers deployed in the public sector differs between regions. This is determined by presence of relevant social service institutions and also the number of districts, which have already enlisted the cadres in their human resources recruitment needs.

Staff availability trend (2010/11-2012/13) for academic staff in training institutions is declining. To reduce the intensity of academic staff shortage, the health training institutions use part time teachers from nearby hospitals or from other institutions. Although this strategy helps to reduce burden to existing teaching staff, the capacity to engage teaching staff has been declining annually from 2010/11 to 2012/13- Figure 3.

Figure 3(b): Availability of staff in health training institutions

The existing workforce is mal-distributed, the situation is worst in dispensaries. Many staff prefer to work in urban rather than rural areas due to poor working and living environment. There is a clear regional disparity with regard to HRH availability. Kilimanjaro, Dar-es salaam, Iringa, Lindi and Pwani are better off compared to regions such as Kagera, Rukwa, Tabora, Kigoma and Shinyanga. Health workers density ranges from 4/10,000 population to 10/10,000 population1 - figure 4.

3.3 Training and Development

3.3.1 Training Institutions

There are 153 registered training institutions, which offer various training programs for health and social welfare workers. The non-degree level programs for health professionals fall under the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare and accredited by the National Council for Technical Education (NACTE) which is responsible for setting entry qualification and educational standards. The degree programs are under the Ministry of Education and Vocational Training and are regulated by the Tanzania Commission for Universities (TCU). The private sector has a growing number of training institutions in the health sector; and the recent years witnessed an increase in number of private for profit health human resources training facilities. Table 7 shows the number, programs offered and ownership of health training institutions in the country.

3.3.2 Enrolment and Output of Health Training Institutions

The number of enrolled students doubled between 2005 and 2010. 4914 students were enrolled to join various trainings in 2005, while in 2010, the number of enrolled students was 8956. The pool of applicants for medical specialization has increased substantially as a consequence of expansion in basic medical education in the country. This is partly attributed to governmental support through loan from the loan board. The contribution of non-public institution is about 28% of all postgraduate enrolment - Figure 5 and 6.

Although there is high production of social welfare workforce in the labour market, the challenge remains in recruitment, deployment and retention of the available graduates from respective Universities and Colleges.

16 HRH STRATEGIC PLAN 2014 – 2019

3.3.3 Continued Professional Development for Health Workforce

Continued Professional Development (CPD) concept is not adequately emphasized and institutionalised. The available CPD guidelines have not been adequately operationalized and are outdated. The in-service training has been confined to classroom teaching, which mainly complicates the existing HRH crisis by taking the health workers away from their workstation. The potential of applying on-job training, mentoring and coaching, distance learning and e learning are less explored. There is inequity in accessing CPD. It is common to find health workers who have not been refreshed for periods of 5 years or more while others have attended several trainings. After all, there has been little follow up of those who attended such training to establish the effect of the training on their performance.

CPD is not well related and integrated into service provision and practice and thus not reflected in the allocation of health care budgets. Medical schools and health training institutions usually focus on basic and qualification programs -their role in CPD is not clear. There is hardly any emphasis in the curricula that inculcate a culture of lifelong learning that enables the student to appreciate in the future the importance of CPD for their practice and career. There is no system to support or recognize participation of health workers in CPD activities whether inside or outside the country. Certificates and credits gained from these trainings do not usually count towards the promotion of individual health workers and their career development.

Despite the recorded successes, the health training institutions face several challenges which include big shortage of teachers in training institutions and increased workload due to increased enrolments of students. Currently the available number of teachers only few have attended teaching methodology courses and others have not There are no clear mechanisms for updating teachers on new developments in service provision such as changes in case management for certain diseases. Consequently the new graduates go to service without updated knowledge. On the part of practical exposure to students, several challenges have been reported, for example, due to critical shortage of staff in health facilities, trainees get limited exposure time with clinical instructors. Another challenge is the increased number of students and limited numbers of teaching hospitals leading to inadequate exposure of students to patients. Other challenges include: Limited funding and unstable disbursement of funds, poor infrastructure, shortage of learning materials as well as limited enrolment to cope with the existing demand for certain cadres such as laboratory and pharmaceutical staff. Moreover, there is weak quality management framework for ensuring quality of training in schools and adaptation of new technology to increase efficiency in training

is limited.

3.4 Recruitment and Retention

3.4.1 Status of recruitment:

There are several players dealing with HRHSW matters. At least four ministries or government departments are involved in HRHSW decisions, making it challenging to coordinate the recruitment process. There are sentiments that the recruitment process is cumbersome and less efficient. Councils complain that permissions are granted for cadres that were not requested. There are instances where permits granted consist of cadres that are not available in the market. The advertisements for recruiting health staff provide a chance for potential recruits to choose three regions they would like to be posted to. Consequently rural and hard to reach areas are less selected. Not all of the posted employees report. Others report and quit. For example Out of 4812 permits, which were utilised only 63%, reported to their respective stations. Out of the reported staff 13% left for several reasons such as delays in being entered into the payroll and receive salary payment on time

17HRH STRATEGIC PLAN 2014 – 2019

Figure 7: Utilisation of granted Permits (absolute numbers)

3.4.2 Recruitment Process

Recruitment in the health sector is a multisectoral function; it involves PMORALG through Councils which are charged with the responsibility of identification of new employment posts. Likewise PO-PSM is charged with the responsibility of rationalisation, validation and approves new employment posts. Ministry of Health and Social Welfare is responsible for advertising and posting of health workers to relevant authorities and lastly Ministry of Finance which is responsible for financing new posts in form of salaries.

Challenges in recruitment include low human resource management capacity in the councils, limited allocations for personnel emoluments, poor working conditions (roads, communication network, electricity, recreation, water, and schools for children) especially in rural areas, limited ability of the health and social welfare sector to meet the basic employee personal needs (including pay for extra/ heavy workloads, workplace hazard allowance and opportunities for self development) and brain drain within and outside the country.

For example Out of 4812 permits, which were utilised only 63%, reported to their respective stations. Out of the reported staff, 13% left for several reasons such as delays to clear their claims like subsistence allowance, moving costs and late incorporation into payroll; Poor working environment; un-availability of staff houses, bad roads and lack of essential social services.

3.4.3 Retention of Health Workers

The magnitude of retention problem is not well established. For example according to HRH research synthesis commissioned by GIZ in 2011, about 53% of skilled staffs in the districts are intending to leave services. The HRH synthesis recommended that, apart from the various “one-time focused studies on attrition” there is a need to have in place an institutionalised system for continuously and regularly tracking the attrition, identifying reasons and recommending strategies to address the problem.

3.4.4 Health Workers Motivation

Retaining HRH has been a problem due to challenges such as compensation and working conditions. The internal and external brain drain is one of the prominent factors. Efforts are underway to attract staff to public sector. The government has been increasing salaries almost annually since 2006. Pilots on ways to attract professionals in underserved areas were conducted to inform the government on issues for consideration both at national and council level. Although there is no national mechanism or guidance on retention of staff, some council specific initiatives to motivate staff have been tried. POPSM developed pay and incentive policy in 2010. The policy needs to be disseminated and operationalized.

3.5 Performance Management and Reward Systems

Currently, the government uses OPRAS as a mechanism to enhance performance of public servants including health workers. The use of Open Performance Review Appraisal System (OPRAS) began in 2004, which is one of the outcomes of public services reform of which health sector reform is part. Promotion and career advancement are still rewarded by considering staff working experience and not performance and OPRAS is less utilised. Supervisors are reluctant to use OPRAS due to inadequate knowledge and skills on application of OPRAS. Unfortunately there is limited guidance on how best to use the system to health professionals.

3.6 Human Resources for Health Financing

The most critical factor driving health system performance, the health worker, was neglected and overlooked for long. Of late, there is a growing awareness that human resources rank consistently among the most important system barriers to progress. Paradoxically, in countries of greatest need, the workforce is under “attack” from a combination of unsafe and unsupportive working conditions and workers departing for greener pastures. While more money and drugs are being mobilized, human resources for health, remains underfunded. This is contributed by the underfunding of the health sector. The Abuja declaration recommends allocation of 15% of national budget to health sector. Although health sector financing is considerably improving, it is still below the Abuja declaration targets (Table 8) and human resources for health is ill financed.

Table 8: Total Health Expenditure as a percent of national government budget (three years trend)

Year Budget (Billions)Total Health Expenditure as % of

2012/2013 1,288.8 10%2011/2012 1,209.1 10%2010/2011 1,206 12%

MoHSW’s commitment to adding budget for HRH activities is vivid, but it is impinged by limited budget. For example since 2010/11 MoHSW has increased enrolment to training institutions but the training budget did not increase to cope with the increased enrolment – Figure 8.

3.7 Research and Utilisation of Research Findings

The government of the United Republic of Tanzania realises the importance of HRH research in the provision of information for health planning and decision-making. In 2005 and 2011, the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare collected and synthesized various HRH research studies. The 2011 research synthesis noted a research gap with regard to migration, partnership, production and performance of health care workers. The challenging part is the coordination and utilisation of HRH research to inform HRH plans, policies and strategies due to the fact that previous studies focused more on identifying “What and how much questions” and less on “How and why questions”

3.8 Stewardship and Partnership

There is need to provide strong leadership to effectively address the human resources crisis. A major challenge has been a chronic low investment on human resources functions. This challenge is attributed partly to limited sector dialogue and weak advocacy. The strengthening of human resources management systems and structure is required at relevant levels.

For the past five years the Ministry of Health and Social Welfare played a key leadership role to address the decentralisation challenges affecting Human Resources for Health Management. MoHSW on behalf of LGAs took a role of recruiting and posting HRH for regional and LGAs. Although there are some limitations that are partly attributable to coordination of various players in recruitment arena as well as peripheral capacity to handle the entrusted responsibilities, MoHSW’s involvement in recruitment process has reduced the impact of decentralising human resources for health recruitment process considerably. With regard to financing, MoHSW in recognition of central government’s financial limitations- leveraged government’s efforts by soliciting funds to address some key strategic interventions. In Global Fund Round Nine, the MoHSW has included a human resources component that contributed a lot in increasing efficiency in recruitment and staff retention. The implementation of this program is done in partnership with a non-government organization – The Benjamin William Mkapa Foundation. Moreover the implementation of outgoing strategic plan attracted several actors and it broadened the partnership base. However, coordination remained a challenge.

The challenges of enhancing leadership and stewardship in HRH still exist. These include

• Challenges of coordination such as limited transparency, duplication of activities and inadequate sharing of information

• Challenges in bringing together different actors in addressing HRH crisis such as leaders and the community from national to village level.

Chapter Four:

Key Result Areas, Objectives and Strategies

4.1 Introduction

The Key results areas, objectives and strategies of this strategic plan emanate from a thorough situation analysis enriched by data and information from different sources including HRHIS and TIIS reports, empirical information from field interviews, local research evidences and international literature. Important documents like Human Resource Policy Guidelines – 2005, Primary Health Services Development Program (PHSDP), 2007 – 2017, National Health Policy 2007, Tanzania Development Vision 2025, National Strategy for Growth and Reduction of Poverty and Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) were used to guide and inform the development of this plan. Series of Social Welfare Policies and Frameworks were also reviewed to identify key issues for social welfare. In addition the September 2013 Tanzania National HRH conference’s recommendations have been considered. The information created basis for setting priority HRH&SW issues. It helped in defining strategic goals and objectives to improve HRH policies, planning, production, distribution and HR management systems for improved individual performance and utilisation. From different sources of information the 2014-2019 HRH Strategic Plan carries forward the 2008-2013 strategic objectives because the issues are still relevant for addressing the crisis.

The government is dedicated to ensure availability of adequate and competent health and social welfare workforce that is motivated and equitably distributed to deliver quality services to all the people wherever they are. This Strategic Plan intends to achieve the following national HRH vision and mission.

4.2 Vision Statement and Mission Statements

4.2.1 Vision Statement

Making Tanzania a country with adequate health workforce with diversified competencies and motivated to deliver quality health and social welfare services

4.2.2 Mission Statement

To ensure availability of adequate number of health and social welfare workforce with the right skills mix that enable them to deliver effective and efficient health and social welfare services and interventions for the achievement of and promotion of a healthy community, through improved HRH &SW functions, strengthened collaboration and improved coordination with partners.

4.3 Strategic Planning Framework

To ensure the developed strategies contribute to the health sector’s priorities in terms of coverage and accessibility to quality health and social welfare services, the development of key result areas and related strategic objectives was guided by strategic direction as reflected in the HRH&SW strategic planning framework. As shown in Figure 9- the framework advocates for a comprehensive approach to national HRH&SW planning and implementation.

Page 32: HUMAN RESOURCE FOR HEALTH AND SOCIAL ... STRATEGIC PLAN 2014 2019 i THE UNITED REPUBLIC OF TANZANIA MINISTRY OF HEALTH AND SOCIAL WELFARE HUMAN RESOURCE FOR HEALTH AND SOCIAL WELFARE

21HRH STRATEGIC PLAN 2014 – 2019

Figure 9: Strategic Planning Framework

The framework provided a comprehensive and coherent view for developing the different but interrelated domains of the health and social welfare sectors in a co-ordinated and balanced manner to work towards achieving the goals and objectives of the national health and social welfare strategies.

4.3.1 Key Result Areas

The following six areas are identified as key result areas:

Key Result Area 1 HRH&SW Policy and Planning

Strategic ObjectiveStrengthen HRH&SW policy development and planning at all levels

Rationale There has been limited evidence based information for production of comprehensive and realistic HRH&SW plans. The available sources for HRH&SW data are disintegrated, untimely updated, inadequately analyzed and utilized. As a result data users are often confused on what information to rely on when developing HRH&SW plans and policies. Similarly, there has been inadequate dissemination of HRH&SW policies to all levels, and miss-linkages between the national HRH&SW policies and those of the professional associations. The relevant strategies intend to address all critical issues related to HRH&SW policy development and planning including establishment of monitoring and evaluation framework to guide and facilitate effective functioning of Human Resources for Health Technical Working group (HRHTWG).

Key Result Area 2 HRH&SW Research

Strategic Objective Strengthen HRH&SW research and utilization at all levels

Rationale Most HRH&SW research are not coordinated and the focus has mainly been on answering the ‘what and how much’ questions and less on the ‘how’ and ‘why’ questions. In the same vein, most of the HRH&SW research findings are not shared amongst the key stakeholders. As a result most of HRH&SW interventions have been guided with limited evidence and thus become less responsive. This strategic objective focuses on addressing such urgent need by strengthening the capacity to conduct quality and comprehensive HRH&SW researches as well as ensuring effective coordination and utilization of the findings for HRH&SW policies improvement.

22 HRH STRATEGIC PLAN 2014 – 2019

Key Result Area 3 Leadership and Advocacy

Strategic Objective Promote leadership and advocacy for HRH&SW at all levels

Rationale There are still challenges in the area of leadership and stewardship. Some of such challenges include inadequate coordination of HRH&SW initiatives, weak advocacy for HRH & SW funding during the budgeting process, unclear delineated areas of managerial authority, responsibility and accountability at different levels, and inadequate leadership skills. The strategies in this part focus on improving and promoting effective management and advocacy at all levels as key for the attainment of HRH&SW initiatives.

Key Result Area 4 HRH&SW Management

Strategic Objective Strengthen HRH&SW recruitment, retention, career development and utilization at all levels

Rationale There has been low performance and inadequate attraction of health workers to health and social welfare delivery systems. Such situation is highly associated with ineffective practices on recruitment, retention, development and utilization. The relevant strategies intend to enhance effectiveness and efficiency in the implementation of recruitment, retention, development and utilization of health and social welfare workers at all levels.

Key Result Area 5 Production and Quality of HRH&SW

Strategic Objective Increase and standardize production and quality of HRH&SW

Rationale The quality and production of health workers does not match with the need of the health care delivery system. The experiences with various cadres and convexities are mixed. While shortage in some cadres are more severe than others, the shortage in rural is higher than in urban. The related strategies intend enhance production and quality of health and social welfare workers with skill mix that corresponds to the new demand of the time.

Key Result Area 6 Partnership

Strategic Objective Strengthen/promote partnerships and coordination of HRH&SW interventions among stakeholders at all levels

Rationale The efforts of various HRH&SW stakeholders are disintegrated. As a result there have been gaps, duplication of activities, and disharmony in addressing the HRH&SW crisis in the country. The related strategic objective focuses on creating synergy among HRH&SW stakeholders through effective partnership, coordination and implementation of existing regulatory procedures.

Chapter Seven

Monitoring and Evaluation

7.1 HRH Monitoring and Evaluation Framework

Monitoring of this section is designed to provide information regarding progress and achievement at different stages during the implementation period. An M&E framework for the national HRH strategic plan will be developed. This will lay down a foundation for a sound empirical evidence for informed policy decision-making and monitor the progress of HRH development interventions both at strategic and operational levels. It will serve as powerful and effective monitoring tool that will be used by HRH managers at different levels of the health system to gather, analyze, generate timely information, submitting reports and getting feedback to solve problems related to human resources on timely manner and explore new solutions to overcome chronic HRH issues.

The framework will in addition:

• Provide systematic mechanism for monitoring HRH in health sector

• Provide evidence to inform HRH policy and planning & decision making

• Reinforce HRH accountability within the health sector

• Enhance better understanding of the trends in HRH

• Create a basis to measure and monitor impact of HRH interventions

• Enhance sub-national comparability

• Harmonization and alignment with other M&E frameworks and information systems

• It will also assist in capturing lessons learned, identify and document the best practices to be shared in-country and globally

7.2 Things to be monitored

In order to be able to measure change key targets for some specific areas have been set below.

Areas of Focus Develop Targets Source Of Information

1. Recruitment Shortage of staff reduced from 52% in 2014 to 30% in 2019

Utilisation of granted permits increased from 60% in 2014 to 100% in 2019

HRHIS/TIIS

POPSM permits on annual basis

Posting report on annual basis

2. Production Production of health workers increased based on demand from 7,000 graduates in 2014 to 10,000 graduates 2019

TIIS

3. Retention 70% of staff posted to districts are retained within the health sector

HRHIS/TIIS

Key Indicators for HRH Production Plan

Page 69: HUMAN RESOURCE FOR HEALTH AND SOCIAL ... STRATEGIC PLAN 2014 2019 i THE UNITED REPUBLIC OF TANZANIA MINISTRY OF HEALTH AND SOCIAL WELFARE HUMAN RESOURCE FOR HEALTH AND SOCIAL WELFARE

58 HRH STRATEGIC PLAN 2014 – 2019

The following are key monitoring indicators for the HRH Production Plan

1. Total health personnel

2. Population per worker

3. Health worker per 100,000 population

4. Physicians (including AMOs) per 100,000 population

5. Nursing and midwifery personnel per 100,000 population

7.3 Progress monitoring

While most of the indicators are strategic objective specific and denotes to certain activities, a sensitive set of CORE HRH indicators will be identified. This will emanate from the MOHSW milestones and other key strategic documents. Specifically the following will be tracked. The reporting process will take into consideration vertical and horizontal strategies to ensure total coverage of partners and relevant stakeholders for HRH&SW. In order to capture data adequately; an Input – Output – Outcome – Impact data collection, analysis and reporting approach will be applied. Specifically the following will be tracked.

Accomplishment status of planned activities

In order to establish whether activities are implemented as planned. Progress reporting mechanism will be used to establish the status of implementation of planned activities at all levels. Progress indicators will be extracted from operational plans to establish whether the planned activities have been accomplished. To ensure that this happens, all levels develop an operational plan on annual basis with clear progress indicators. In addition there will be an inclusion and review of councils quarterly technical report tool to ensure key information on HRH is collected on quarterly basis.

Inputs availability

For activities to be implemented the identified inputs need to be available. The experience of the implementation of HRHSP 2008 -2013 indicates difficulties in capturing how much funding is set and utilised for HRH issues. A possibility of embedding an extra form in the existing information to capture HRH financing at all levels will sought so that financial data is collected.

HRH demand and supply

The developed HRHIS and TIIS will continue to be strengthened and its utilisation be promoted. Since this was 100% supported by a project a clear sustainability plan will be set to ensure a smooth exit of the supporting project and mainstreaming of the two systems into the overall government structure in terms of technical and financial support. The information about HRH available, recruitments, training and attrition will be captured. Enrolment, outputs from training institution will be tracked.

7.4 Information sources

Monitoring will be informed by activity reports from councils, ministries departments and partners, HRHIS, TIIS, DHIS and HMIS. The information will be harmonized to enhance consistency and reliability.

7.5 Strategy evaluation

In general, there will be two main categories of evaluations to be conducted within the lifespan of the strategic plan. These are midterm and final evaluation. Midterm Evaluation will focus on how the HRHSP 2014-2013 is being implemented to determine if the programme is on the right track towards the achievement of planned results and if not, what are the influencing factors. This will be done in year three. This will be an external evaluation. Final evaluation will be done at the end of year five. This will also be an external evaluation.

59HRH STRATEGIC PLAN 2014 – 2019

7.6 Utilization of Monitoring and Evaluation Results

In the monitoring and evaluation process, good and bad practices will be identified and documented to inform future design and implementation of HRH&SW strategic plan. In addition, the documented good practices will used to improve the ongoing implementation. To ensure effective use of M&E results, documented good practices will be shared with HRH&SW stakeholders.

7.7 Important Assumptions

The success in putting this strategic plan into action will highly depend on:

• Reliable financing of planned activities: It very clear that the government financing alone will not cater for all financial requirement of implementing this strategy. Support from other stakeholders is crucial for the realisation of the planned activities. To ensure that stakeholders access and are aspired of the strategic direction taken by the government in addressing HRH crisis and increase access to health services to its population, a resources mobilisation and a communication plan for this strategic plan will be developed to ensure that key stakeholders are informed of the strategic directions and envisaged changes.

• Committed implementers: With limited resources available implementers at all levels will translate the strategic plan into operational plans. CHMTs are expected to incorporate HRH issues into CCHPs.

• Accountability: The strategic plan implementation will be realised if the implementers inculcate a sense of accountability. This will be enhanced by ensuring activities are planned, implemented and reported. An extra mile will be achieved in this strategic plan if implementers at council level with leadership of RHMTs do both routine and innovative actions to increase numbers of human resources, enhance their retention and elevate their morale.

• Partnership and Coordination. Since resources are scarce putting efforts together in a coordinated manner will make the planned strategies and envisaged changes reality. Transparency and scaling up of support to cover areas that less resourced will enhance equitable distribution of HRH and avoid duplication of efforts.
