Workforce Planning. As Xxxxxx Permanente and the Coalition plan for the workforce of today and tomorrow, it is necessary to develop a set of ongoing processes that determine current workforce skill levels, current and future workforce needs and formulate a strategy to assure alignment. The parties agree that Workforce Planning and Workforce Development must be integrated processes and that successful Workforce Planning must include a commitment to internal promotions in the filling of vacancies. Therefore, existing policies, practices and contract language will be jointly reviewed and new policies developed to support internal promotions, including: the harvesting of vacancies, development of redeployment processes, studies to determine the feasibility of in-sourcing career counseling services/functions that are currently performed by external providers and new incentives for managers to promote from within. Further, Labor will be provided with access to their job postings and engaged to build new jobs for future health care models. The Regional Workforce Planning and Development Teams will need to share direction changes brought on by federal and state regulations that affect labor positions so that Labor can be engaged in the development of future workforce strategies.
