Health Worker Retention and Performance Initiatives: Making Better
Strategic Choices
The Capacity Project announces the publication of Health Worker Retention and Performance Initiatives: Making Better Strategic Choices. In this technical brief, the authors focus on issues around motivation, job satisfaction, incentives, retention and performance, and propose an approach based on existing motivation theories and experience in the international health field.
Clarity about concepts like motivation and job satisfaction can help decision-makers be more strategic about the best way to address challenges pertaining to recruitment, retention and performance. The shared understanding and approach discussed in this brief could provide ministries, donors and practitioners with a practical way to allocate the funding they do have and plan affordable interventions that can be implemented incrementally over time.
