Bungoma County Performance Rewards and sanctions Framework for the Public Service 2018
The County government of Bungoma has been firmly committed to providing efficient and effective service delivery to the citizenry. To actualize this commitment, strong emphasis has been placed on productivity and performance improvement.
A key element in performance management is rewarding of exemplary performance and sanctioning of poor performance within a framework that also supports the objective to attract, nurture and retain qualified and highly productive staff. It is against this background that a Performance Rewards and Sanctions Framework in the public service has been developed with the objective of rewarding exemplary performance while sanctioning poor performance. Hitherto, rewards and sanctions framework have existed across the Public Service and implemented by different agencies without a unified and coordinated framework. A Performance Management System puts into sharp focus the performance of an individual employee and the subsequent contribution to institutional performance in achieving intended results.
This Performance Rewards and Sanctions Framework for the Public Service creates a centralized framework with clear criteria for rewarding exemplary performance and sanctioning poor performance. In so doing, institutional arrangements have been put in place to administer rewards and sanctions in the public service.
