Performance Measurement and Social Security Policy in Local Governments

Abstract

The current focus on performance measurement in local levels of government reflects citizen demand for evidence of program effectiveness. Performance measurement enables local officials to hold organizations accountable to introduce consequences for performance. Performance measurement is the one of the main effects of the loss of worker jobs. If the manager's appraisal of the worker's performance is not efficient, they can evaluate that their labour force is unnecessary. A common terminology has emerged over time which allows different elements of performance measurement to the identified: inputs, process, outputs, outcomes. Additionally, in order to set out a standard for comparison of results, this is known as a benchmarking. Line managers can use performance data to inform their resource allocation decisions. All over the world, countries and local units, labour markets are unreliable. The twin pillars of jobs at living wages for all who sought work and income supports for those who found themselves outside of the local labour market were built.
