Department of Health

The Department of Health has a diverse set of responsibilities, and a common purpose of creating better health care for Queenslanders. The department is responsible for the overall management of the public health system in Queensland. We strongly believe in the need to work with people that value the goals of our organisation and who will thrive in our workplace.

To enable this vision, the Queensland Public Sector is transforming from a focus on compliance to a values-led way of working. The following five values underpin behaviours that will support and enable better ways of working and result in better outcomes for Queenslanders.

About Corporate Enterprise Solutions

Our focus is to provide solutions and services that support Queensland Health's Enterprise Corporate Applications and supporting payroll transactional processes. This application suite includes the largest integrated rostering and SAP payroll solution in the public sector and the SAP S/4HANA finance, business and logistics solution and management environment (S/4HANA solution).

Our commitment to our customers is to:

• provide a statewide processing service to Hospital and Health Services and the Department of Health
• deliver and enhance workforce management, payroll and S/4HANA solutions
• provide services that are accountable and financially responsible
• continually review and improve services to meet customer needs.

The Integrated Workforce Management Program

The Integrated Workforce Management (IWFM) Program is a key strategic initiative for Queensland Health that will enhance the roster-to-pay process, deliver positive outcomes to support enhanced workforce management and drive the delivery of tangible benefits for both Hospital and Health Services (HHS) and the Department of Health, through improved tools, processes, and access to workforce decision-support information where and when it is needed.

Leveraging existing (SAP myHR and Workbrain) technology, Stage 3 of the IWFM Program includes the rollout of a single, statewide and integrated electronic rostering solution to the frontline nursing and midwifery cohort, and a more inclusive approach to workforce management support. A complete capability uplift program will also be delivered for Nursing and Midwifery, which includes guiding principles for Leading Practice Workforce Management, and service-centric Roster Support Offices will be established at each HHS to provide transactional and advisory support directly to Nurse and Midwifery Unit Managers.

The approved IWFM Stage 3 implementation plan has a provision for future rollouts to additional Queensland Health workforce groups, if funding is available. IWFM Stage 1 (pilots and prerequisite) and IWFM Stage 2 (implementation of myHR) have been completed.
