The purpose of this package is to set standard policies and practices to ensure fairness and equity, attract and retain a qualified and committed supply chain workforce and to clearly show the rights and responsibilities of the health supply chain workforce This standard is meant to be used as either a guideline for health supply chain organisations that do not yet have a HR policy manual or that do and wish to update and ensure that it contains best practices. Therefore, this document shall be used as a reference tool when developing, revising or updating HR policy manuals.
This document was developed based on the four pathways of the PtD Human Resources for Supply Chain Management Theory of Change and best practices of HSCM organisations in middle-and low-income countries.
