The Council has embarked on an ambitious plan to bring about a wholesale economic and social regeneration of the area, and provide the people of Bassetlaw with excellence in public service.  This is a challenging agenda, the achievement of which will depend fundamentally on our most valuable asset – Our Employees.

It is our people at work who will, on a daily basis, drive the agenda, implement the strategies and provide the attention to detail and care for the customer when delivering services. 

As a consequence it is vital that our employees are recognised as the key to our success and that appropriate plans are in place to ensure that we have a capable and skilled workforce, committed to and focused on achieving the Council’s objectives.

This is why the Human Resource Service (working with people across the organisation) has developed this strategy identifying and addressing the key Human Resource issues and actions which need to be addressed, so that we can achieve our goals.  It will provide a new coherent, integrated approach to people management linked to strategic objectives and is designed to help our employees to give their best and achieve their true potential.
