1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This report is for the Organisational Services Department for the month of July 2019. • Safety continues to be a focus with no LTI’s reported in July 2019.
• The SMS initiative to remind rate payers that payment is due continues to produce excellent results. This
month 90 text messages were sent to remind pensioners that payment was due. This resulted in 36% (19) less assessments being sent to collection house. An additional 17 notices were paid in full and 26 payment plans were arranged.
• I was pleased to represent Mackay Regional Council (MRC) at the Central Queensland Regional Training
Awards in Rockhampton on 20 July. MRC was nominated in the Large Employer of the Year category. Also, Jeanette Timor (who completed a Conservation and Land Management traineeship with MRC) was nominated for 2 categories – ATSI Student of the Year and Trainee of the Year. Jeanette won the ATSI Student of the Year Award and now progresses to the State Training Awards which will be held in Brisbane.
• Cohort 2 of the Mackay Mentoring Network was launched on 16 July with a group of 40 participants from MRC and the Resource Industry Network (RIN). They will be supported through an 18-week structured program to develop their leadership capabilities and build networks across the region with other managers and leaders.
• Corporate Governance Officers finalised the 2019/20 insurance renewal process and the 2019/20 Fraud and
Corruption Prevention Plan. • Property Services Officers installed new identifying signage to the sheds at Paget Depot replacing the original
faded signs.

Notes:
• The results for July 2019 are again extremely satisfying when taking into consideration that key resources in the previously vacant roles are still on a learning curve. More telling to this achievement is the increased closure rate of 42% over the previous month, despite demand on ICT Operational and Infrastructure teams increasing by 33% (attributable to Services as Incident ratio was maintained) over the previous month.
• Obtaining skilled resource within the Mackay region is a continuing challenge and one that we need to
explore further on recruitment techniques to attract skilled resource to permanently locate themselves in Mackay. In addition, strategies are to be explored to work in partnership with educational facilities and other key organisations recruiting IT skill sets in the region to build and foster a local resource pool.

KPI Commentary Incident and Service Request Metrics: The volume of incident and service requests has increased this month, from 826 in June to 1098 in July. Whilst an overall increase in requests is evident (this being attributed to Services) a comparison with the June 2019 incident requests shows that a maintained level is being sustained. Information Services continues to deliver significant infrastructure and application improvements (both functional and technical (inc. security)) whilst maintaining quality. The ICT Operations team continue to maintain work in progress (WIP) and backlog despite resourcing challenges. The below graph identifies the Raised Vs Closed and Pending requests, along with WIP and backlog.

Definitions:
WIP – complex support requests that are within service level agreements and simple support requests open on day of raising.
Backlog – complex support requests that have exceeded service level agreements and simple support requests remaining unresolved after day of raising.
3.4 Key Activities
Activity Program Comments
Process Optimisation
Shared Services
Stage one of a project to ensure that all processes within Shared Services are mapped and processes with potential to be optimised are identified and prioritised. The initiative will form the framework for strategic and focussed process improvement in the new calendar year.
Electronic workflows for invoice processing
Shared Services
Invoices will now be forwarded via MRC’s accounting system rather than via email attachment. This initiative simplifies the process, creates a single point of truth, minimises cyber security risk, improves management of outstanding approvals, automates a heavily manual process and greatly improves reporting capabilities.
Health Renewals Shared Services
Excellent results achieved by the team, 98% of type 1 renewals issued within timeframes and 99% of type 2 renewals.
SMS reminder for rates payments
Shared Services
The SMS initiative to remind rate payers that payment is due continues to reap excellent results. This month 90 text messages were sent to remind pensioners that payment was due. This resulted in 36% (19) less assessments being sent to collection house. An additional 17 notices were paid in full and 26 payment plans were arranged.

4. PEOPLE AND CULTURE 4.1 Key Activities
Activity Comments
Organisational Culture
• Cohort 2 of the Mackay Mentoring Network launched on 16 July with an enthusiastic group of 40 participants from MRC and the RIN network. They will be supported through an 18-week structured program to develop their leadership capabilities and build networks across the region with other likeminded managers and leaders.
Health and Wellbeing
• With the focus on Financial Health for July, free budgeting workshops for staff were rolled out in various locations. These workshops provided tips and tricks about creating a budget to suit income. In addition, general information seminars targeted at those employees nearing retirement were held and LGIA super delivered workshops about retirement choices.
• July also marked the launch of the new API Employee Benefits Program for staff, with a week of workshops on how to make the most of the savings available to staff.
Diversity and Inclusion
• The Inclusive Leadership workshop series which commenced on 11 April 2019, continued in July with workshop number three. The subject for discussion in July was” Busting the Myths around Inclusive Language” with Kim Kleidon as guest speaker. Kim is an experienced communicator and storyteller, with 25 years of media experience from advertising to Mornings at ABC radio. She has even done a TEDx talk!
Workforce Relations
• The Recruitment, Selection and Appointment Policy and the Visa Policy were delivered to the JCC this month.
• The policies will be undergoing further review and consultation prior to becoming effective.

Learning and Development (continued)
• 4 trainees and 1 apprentice were onboarded in July and are pictured with the Mayor below.
Leadership Development
• The pilot of the first Elev8 Fundamental Leader series of workshops has completed and is now being reviewed based on feedback from participants and facilitators before the second rollout commences later in August. The delivery of second module of Elev8, the Operational Leader, has been delayed due to circumstances beyond the control of MRC. The Elev8 Empowering Leadership sessions are continuing.
Workforce Capability
• Workforce planning meetings with the CEO and Directors are taking place in July and August. The purpose of these meetings is to review workforce needs at the Directorate and Organisation level; review and endorse identified Critical Positions, and discuss trends identified when implementing the process.
• The Position Description Framework was endorsed at SLPT recently, planning is underway to implement this process across the organisation.
Volunteers • Implementation of the Volunteer Management Strategy has commenced. A gap analysis of our current systems against the Volunteering Australia National Standards for Volunteering will be undertaken with each volunteer program. Results will be used to guide and prioritise actions.
Water Industry Worker Pilot Program
• MRC is hosting a Water Industry Worker Pilot Program in collaboration with 5 Regional Councils to upskill workers from various programs in line with national standards for the water industry. MRC identified 6 existing workers to put through the pilot program and there are 30 existing workers in total going through the pilot across all the Councils (Mackay, Whitsunday, Townsville, Burdekin and Cairns).
• Inductions and signups are taking place at each Council location in August to ensure we are on track for our first workshop in September, these workshops will be hosted by Townsville.
PROJECT: Mackay Regional Skills Investment Strategy
Contract KPIs: • RSIS project on track and meeting contractual obligations.
RSIS General Comments: • Still no formal business cases raised or approved by State Government from any RSIS
