Official description
Description
The Climate Change Action Strategy is an ambitious plan that requires staffing resources in many City departments to be successfully implemented. To ensure this is achieved, each department involved in the strategy will need to conduct resource and capacity reviews to ensure that adequate resourcing is available to achieve their respective actions. This process will be facilitated by the Sustainability Team, with the support of Human Resources and approval by senior leadership.
To date, two new positions have been approved for funding, however a comprehensive staff capacity review has not been conducted and many leading and supporting divisions report staff capacity as a main challenge for CCAS implementation.
