Human Resource Management and Information System

Human Resource Management Information System (HRMIS)

The Human Resource Management Information System (HRMIS) is a component of the Belize Public Sector Reform Strategy and a modernization initiative of the Government of Belize. It facilitates the automation of human resources management activities in an effort to act as a strategic organ in the Ministry. The HRMIS is composed of comprehensive modules, such as, Job and Positions, Employment, Recruitment, Skills, and Training Modules that function to store, maintain and disseminate valuable human resource information. This enhances effective decision making through easier access to human resource information thus developing the management of the Belize Public Service human capital.

The HRMIS is updated with information as transactions are processed making it process-driven and dependable. The Unit acts as a point of reference for all entities within the public service as the system provides a central repository for personnel records. The enforcement of high levels of security measures strengthens the integrity of the information emanating from the HRMIS.

The implementation of the HRMIS fosters information sharing, communication, standardization, reduction in error, increased monitoring and overall synergy among government ministries to assist in developing a responsive public service.
