Kenya Marine and Fisheries Research Institute Career Progression Guidelines February 2021

Abstract

A career progression guideline is an important human resource management tool that facilitates recruitment, retention, development, training and promotion on the basis of merit, competence and ability. With the development of these career progression guidelines that are in tandem with government policies and relevant circulars, effective implementation of the career guideline will usher in a new dawn for the Institute. Staff members will be empowered, motivated and facilitated to contribute effectively towards achievement of Institute’s mandate which is key to the development agenda of our nation. These career progression guidelines provide a linkage between an officer’s performances, career advancement, and adopts a new job classification based on complexities of the roles, qualifications and competencies required to undertake work at different levels. It is therefore, my expectation that the Institute shall have a robust, re-energized work force which will raise the level of service delivery to our stakeholders. I therefore, urge the KMFRI Management and all those involved to ensure effective implementation of this career guidelines.
