Organizational Development’s Workload Management Guide is a tool that supports important discussions on current workload and changes to workload are ongoing. Together, both the supervisor and the employee are accountable for effective workload management. The Workload Management Guidelines provide a five-step process that supports informed decision-making through effective identification and analysis of data/information and accurate and consistent performance reporting within the context of the unit/department’s function. Please find more information in the Workload Management Guide.
