Abstract

In the context of the public administration reform in the Republic of Serbia, the accent is currently on the development of professional capacities and introduction of civil servants’ competencies. This implies a shift from the question of “what we do”, to the equally important one of “how we do it”. The activities on the introduction of a competency system began in 2011 with the support from IPA EU funds. Currently underway is the project ‘Support to Public Administration Reform’ which should result in the development of a civil service competency framework. The establishment of an integrated and competency-based human resources management system has also been envisaged by the recently developed Civil Service Human Resource Management Policy Framework. Pursuant to this document, competencies represent a collection of knowledge, skills and behaviours required for the effective performance of work tasks. While basic (behavioural) competencies relate to ways civil servants behave, functional competencies relate to their knowledge and skills. Competencies should be interlinked with all human resources management processes, such as: human resources planning, job analysis, recruitment and selection, transfer and mobility, performance appraisal and reward system, personal and career development. This will require changes in legal framework - primarily in the Law on Civil Servants, and other supporting bylaws. In order to effectively implement the framework, there will also be a need for intensive civil servants training, especially of high level managerial staff.
