This paper aims to shed light on the status quo of Egypt's civil service human resource ecosystem, to explore the Strategic Human Resource Transformation (SHRT) practices from different countries, and to articulate a guideline for Egypt's civil service SHRT national program to overcome the civil service challenges and bouncing towards effectiveness and sustainable HR management. To develop this paper, the desk research’s approach and the comparative methodology were adopted. The results revealed that the governmental entities HR departments’ practices are not coincided with the global HRM practices, and that the investments for human capital capacity building are very limited. The civil service law No.81 issued in 2016, The Central Agency for Organization and Administration (CAOA) law No. 118 issued in1964 & amendments, Egypt’s vision 2030 related civil service HR projects, and the ongoing projects are not adhered and insufficient to achieve true SHRT. The current civil service HR infrastructure enabled Egypt to launch a SHRT national program that became imperative to complement Egypt’s economic reform endeavors. The anchors, enablers, work streams and initiatives that constitute the program guideline were introduced. استهدفت الدراسة تسليط الضوء على الوضع الراهن لمنظومة الموارد البشرية في الخدمة المدنية في مصر، والتعرف على الممارسات الدولية في مجال التحول الاستراتيجي للموارد البشرية بالخدمة المدنية في عدة دول، وصياغة إطار عمل لبرنامج قومي للتحول الاستراتيجي للموارد البشرية في الخدمة المدنية في مصر للتغلب على التحديات التي تواجهها وتحقيق قفزة نحو الكفاءة وإدارة الموارد البشرية المستدامة. وقد تم استخدام أسلوب الدراسة المكتبية و المنهج المقارن في إعداد هذه الدراسة ، والتي أظهرت نتائجها أن ممارسات إدارات الموارد البشرية في الجهات الحكومية لا تتواكب مع الممارسات الدولية في إدارة الموارد البشرية، و أن الاستثمار في بناء قدرات راس المال البشري محدودة للغاية، وان قانون الخدمة المدنية رقم 81 لسنة 2016، وقانون الجهاز المركزي للتنظيم والإدارة رقم 118 لسنة 1964 وملحقاته، والمشاريع ذات الصلة بالموارد البشرية في الخدمة المدنية المدرجة في رؤية مصر 2030 و المشروعات التي تنفذ حاليا غير متكاملة وغير كافية لتحقيق التحول الحقيقي للموارد البشرية الاستراتيجية. كما أظهرت الدراسة أن البنية التحتية الحالية للموارد البشرية في الخدمة المدنية تُمكن مصر من إطلاق برنامج قومي للتحول الاستراتيجي للموارد البشرية والذي أصبح ضرورة ملحة لاستكمال جهود الإصلاح الاقتصادي التي قامت بها مصر، وتم تقديم المرتكزات والممكنات ومسارات الأعمال والمبادرات التي تشكل إطار عمل هذا البرنامج. |
