OVERVIEW

What are the CONSEQUENCES of Poor Hiring?


Harvard Business School has identified that the cost of poor selection at 3 times annual salary!


The true cost of hiring the wrong person is a much-debated subject, with the sky being the limit if irreparable damage is  caused to a team, department or even an entire organization. Aside from the immediate actual  cost of recruiting, letting go, and then recruiting again, a ‘bad hire’ can affect internal morale, production and sales, and profits . This overall cost can often be multiplied , depending on the level of seniority of the individual concerned. 


Capturing complete competency-based data is crucial to making accurate hiring decisions.

OVERVIEW Protect Your Business Against Expensive Malpractices and Fraudulent Behaviour The rise in contract management and the outsourcing of goods and services has created an increase in procurement fraud, which can occur at any stage of the contracting and procurement process. Appropriate controls, fraud prevention strategies and proper tendering processes are necessary in the fight against this fraud. It is important to remember that maintenance of financial controls remains critical in this age of digitalisation. Public and private sectors must continue to comply with legal responsibilities and related guidance on financial governance. It is essential that all staff maintain financial records and decision logs – regardless of any circumstances - so that audit trails are preserved . Procurement, finance, and payroll staff – as well as those who requisition or authorise the purchase of goods, services and works should familiarise themselves with the controls set out to prevent fraud , identify key parameters for auditors in assessing the risk of sub-optimal procurement, and how they should prioritise and conduct their audits to check if these risks have materialised, including the risk of fraud and corruption. Procurement fraud can occur through departmental purchasing of goods and services, as well as through contractual arrangements with external service providers. It can occur in many different ways. Fraud within the procurement life cycle is high risk and can result in recurring losses. You may be at risk due to fraudulent activities conducted by internal staff, collusion between internal staff and external service providers or external service provider or industry collusion. This workshop offers insight into the specific risks and possible management techniques in procurement in good or tough times. This 14 hours training programme would equip participants with the knowledge, skills, and techniques to deter, prevent, and detect various devastating types of fraud. Learn how to identify procurement fraud situations, uncover rogue operatives and threats and provide a higher level of transparency and control over all elements of your purchasing requirements.
