The revised Staff Governance Standard sets out what employers must do to develop and manage their staff, and to ensure that all staff have a positive employee experience, and feel motivated and engaged with their job, team and organisation. We know that achieving this will not only have a positive impact on how the organisation performs, but, more importantly, will also impact on the quality of service delivered to everyone, every time.
In line with the Quality Strategy, which recognises that everyone involved has a responsibility to contribute towards high quality care, the revised Staff Governance Standard introduces, for the first time, staff responsibilities in relation to their colleagues, managers, staff for whom they have responsibility, the organisation, patients, their carers and the public.
