Common use of External Supervision Clause in Contracts

External Supervision. External supervision arrangements may be considered by managers in situations where a staff member has identified specific learning needs and goals that cannot be met internally. Examples of situations where external supervision may be considered are: • Where there is insufficient capacity or capability within the Ministry at that time; • When professional bodies stipulate that supervision is provided by a registered member of the same occupational group as the staff member and there is inadequate capacity within the Ministry at that time. Regular review of the need for external supervision arrangements is required by supervisees and their managers. Providing approval has been obtained in advance from management, external supervision that is necessary will be paid for by the Ministry. Approval will not be unreasonably withheld.
