The document on the career profile in the health sector in Haiti is being finalized. This was revealed by a Technical Group of the Ministry of Health (MSSP) during a presentation this week, for about twenty executives of the Office of Management and Human Resources (OMRH).

The development of this document, the result of a series of approaches and consultations with all stakeholders, aims in particular to contribute to the improvement of the public sector for health jobs in Haiti. Given the scarcity of qualified human resources and the lack of material and financial resources in the field of health, it has been foreseen to provide professionals in the sector with a reference document capable of taking into account all the organizational aspects of the Haitian health system. In addition, the document to be finalized shortly will be developed in order to be able to integrate the new job classification system that will soon be implemented by OMRH.

In his speech, Josué Pierre-Louis, OMRH's General Coordinator, invited the technical group of the Ministry to participate in similar meetings, convinced that the model could be used by all government ministries.

For his part, Antoine Verdier, Deputy General Coordinator of OMRH, said that the document could be integrated into the job classification system after defining the job descriptions.

Sié Azaria Coulibaly, Management Expert, explained to the participants the rationale and content of the document and the recommendations made, the creation of a training institute of middle managers of Health (Health auxiliaries, health officers, health technicians).

It should be noted that the preparation of this document is made possible thanks to the support of the OMRH through the provision of the normative frameworks of the management of the human resources and also by the technical and financial support of the American Agency for the International Development (USAID) through its Financing and Health Governance Project (HFG) of "ABT Associates".
