The South African HR Standards were the first set of its kind in
the world and attracted interest from 18 countries. Several
countries on the African continent have either adopted or slightly
adapted the HR Standards for their purposes.
The First Annual National HR Standards Roll Out in 2013
attracted 468 participants and the second annual roll-out in 2014
attracted 631 delegates. More than 4 000 HR professionals have now
been directly exposed to the HR Standards.
Top HR professional bodies and interest groups from the USA, UK,
Australia and other countries have reacted favourably to the South
African HR Standards with some of them visiting SABPP to learn
about the process and outcomes.
A total of 21 universities have committed to adapt their
curricula to the HR Standards and the first masters degree on the
HR Standards has been successfully completed by an HR Manager.
The Minister of Justice and Correctional Services, Advocate
Michael Masutha approved HR professionals as Ex-Officio
Commissioners of Oaths when the Standards were submitted as part of
the motivation to his office.
The worlds first HR audit framework was developed so companies
can be audited against the National HR Standards.
More than 100 auditors have been trained to audit companies
against the Standards.
In 2015, the 3rd Annual HR StandardsRoll Out takes the National
HR Standards Journey to a new level of significance. Not only do we
continue on this multi-year HR Standards journey, but we also,
every year, step up and add new outputs to the achievements of the
previous year as the HR Standards journey unfolds. This year we
bring you the framework within which a National HR scorecard, Board
and operational HR reporting will be developed, enabling you to
measure the bottom-
line impact of HR on your organisation. The HR metrics also
enable you to do meaningful benchmarking with other companies
against a clear set of consistent metrics. This three-year HR
Standards journey has now reached a level of integration and
alignment so much so that the three dimensions (standards, audits
and metrics) now form a synergistic approach to raising the bar on
HR excellence in the workplace that extends the impact of HR work
beyond the realm of internal HR practices to national
significance.

The National HR Standards Journey(2013 2015) has been an
unprecedented success with many different milestones along this
exciting journey. The 3rd Annual HR Standards Roll Out will now
build on the successes achieved, and take the HR profession forward
in the 2016 2020 era.
Those HR professionals who have not yet been part of the journey
need not feel worried or left out. We will provide them with an up
to date list of FAQs and answers to help them find their feet and
quickly become part of the journey with their colleagues.S

Over the past three years, South Africa has become a
world-leader in the development, implementation and auditing of
National HR Standards. The HR Standards journey started in 2013
with the development of the worldsfirst National HR Management
System with 13 standard elements, namely Strategic HR
Management,
Talent Management, HR Risk Management, Workforce Planning,
Learning and Development, Performance Management, Reward and
Recognition, Employee Wellness, Employment Relations Management, HR
Service Delivery, HR Technology and HR Measurement.
The purpose of the HR Standards initiative driven by SABPP in
association with HR Future magazine was to reduce inconsistencies
in HR practice and to provide a common and standardised framework
for sound HR practice. The HR Standards project enabled the
HRprofession to improve its credibility, status and impact in the
workplace. In 2014, an
additional 19 HR Professional Practice Standards were created to
support the HR Management System with clear professional practices
being implemented by HR professionals in the workplace. These
Professional Practice Standards range from absenteeism management
and succession planning to career development. Also, 2014 saw the
setting up of a National HR Audit Unit responsible for conducting
HR Audits against the National HR Standards. Several companies have
already been audited and the Boards of those companies audited now
have full confidence in the quality of HR practice as verified by
independent external auditors.
