Development of a Pay and Reward Strategy for the Food Standards Agency
Food Standards Agency
Scope as published
The Food Standards Agency (FSA) is an independent Government department working across England, Wales and Northern Ireland to protect public health and consumers wider interest in food. We make sure food is safe and what it says it is. The Agency employs approximately 1,600 staff across a diverse range of professions and specialisms, including policy, science, digital, operational delivery, veterinary and inspection functions. Delivery of the Agency's strategic objectives depends upon attracting, developing, motivating and retaining a highly skilled, engaged and sustainable workforce. The Agency has recently completed a Strategic Workforce Planning exercise which identified future workforce requirements, critical capability needs, workforce risks and opportunities over the short, medium and longer term. The Agency now wishes to commission specialist support to develop a comprehensive Pay and Reward Strategy that aligns with workforce planning outcomes and supports future organisational priorities. The resulting strategy should support workforce sustainability, organisational performance and employee engagement, whilst recognising the operating constraints of the Civil Service pay framework and the need to demonstrate value for money.
