The HRDO faculty head will enjoy entitlements similar to those enjoyed by constituent university directors, and will have the following functions:

 

  • To initiate the needed reorganization in the office to increase it’s efficiency and relevance;

  • To direct and supervise manpower audit in the HRDO initially and eventually in the whole university making periodic updates available to management;
