Human Resource Services 35 In an attempt to ensure further success of this program, a recruitment and retention strategy has been developed for the new apprenticeship program. The management of the apprentices was outsourced. In support of the Indigenous Employment and Career Development Strategy and following an expression of Interest from business, a tender for a 12 month trial of outsourced Indigenous employment services was released. The service will provide indigenous job seeker referrals, pre-employment training and support, and employee and employer advice and support. The graph shows the number of advertisements placed and the average number of advertisements prepared by each employee over each of the last four years. Volume continues to increase, providing better economies of scale, improving productivity, and resulting in a more cost effective service as demonstrated by the marginal reduction in the price of new starters. The graph shows the number of staff movements and commencements over the last three years. Increasing mobility continues within and between agencies. New commencements have increased only marginally during the same period, indicating no significant change in recruitment numbers to the NT public sector. The main beneficiaries of increased staff numbers are Health, Education, Community Development, Sport and Cultural Affairs and Police, Fire and Emergency Services. Audits No audits were undertaken on this product during the year Initiatives 2004/05 ARMS will be rolled out across agencies during the year. The centralised entry level recruitment program, targeted at administrative levels 1 and 2 will be introduced into the Alice Springs region. Increase the exposure of Northern Territory Government employment opportunities to the broader job seeker market by developing partnerships with employment agencies and identifying opportunities with Internet based advertising agencies. 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 2001/02 2002/03 2003/04R ec ru itm en t T ra ns ac tio ns (0 00 's ) Commencements Staff Movements 0 1 2 3 2000/01 2001/02 2002/03 2003/04 A dv er tis em en ts P la ce d (0 00 's ) 45 50 55 60 65 70 A vg p er E m pl oy ee Advertisements placed Avg per employee
