AtlantiCare Leader Handbook

Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) Central to our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion strategy are our Employee Resource Groups (ERGs). These groups are formed around common identities, but are open to all employees. The groups are created to support DE&I Strategy, Organizational Strategy, and provide DE&I Education. Talent Management AtlantiCare’s people strategy has 3 focuses: Culture, Engagement, and Talent Management for Workforce of the Future.

Within Talent Management we have: Retention and M otivation, Talent A cquisition, Workforce P lanning, and Talent D evelopment (MAPD) .

Workforce Planning This is the first step of Talent Management. This is an organizational planning process to ensure the workforce can meet the healthcare demands of our community and deliver high-quality care to patients/customers. This planning process includes both capacity (sufficient staffing levels to accomplish the work and meet the goals) and capability (through our employee’s knowledge, skills, abilities and competencies.) Leader Expectation(s): Leaders are expected to take an active role in workforce planning for their areas. They should be up to speed on industry trends, in tune with evolving patient needs, regulatory and legal impacts, technology changes, and more, which can all impact the capability and capacity needed in the workforce. When needs are identified leaders should partner with HR to plan solutions. Talent Acquisition, Recruitment, & Selection This is the second step of Talent Management. Leaders and HR Talent Acquisition Partners (TAP) work together to recruit and select the most qualified candidates for open positions. The process starts with the request to fill a vacancy, review of the role description for accuracy, advertisement (internally only or internally/externally), candidate screening, interviews, selection, background check, extending a job offer, and onboarding. The goal is always to attract a diverse pool of high quality candidates and to offer positions to the most qualified individuals. “Most qualified” usually means a balanced combination of relevant work experience, education, technical skill, and match for AtlantiCare Values. All applicants must meet the minimum job qualifications to be considered a candidate. 23
