Abstract

The Strengthening Human Resources for Health (HRH) project was a five-year (2012–2017) bilateral cooperative agreement, funded by U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) Ethiopia, with an overall goal of improving the status of HRH in Ethiopia. The project was implemented by a consortium led by Jhpiego, an international nonprofit organization affiliated with The Johns Hopkins University. Implementing partners under the leadership of Jhpiego are Management Sciences for Health (MSH), Ethiopian Midwives Association (EMA), Ethiopian Association of Anesthetists (EAA), and the Open University. The survey employed a combination of census and stratified random sampling techniques to obtain representative information. A structured questionnaire on HRH planning, staffing standards and levels, attrition rates, and HRM capacities was completed by respondents at the Federal Ministry of Health (FMOH), 11 Regional Health Bureaus (RHBs), 85 Zonal Health Departments (ZHDs), and 87 Woreda Health Offices (WoHOs). A second questionnaire on student intake, graduation rates, teaching staff, and infrastructure was completed by respondents at 20 universities and 22 Regional Health Science Colleges (RHSCs) that offer training programs in midwifery, anesthesia, and/or HEW. The data were encoded and analyzed using CSPro version 5 and SPSS version 20. The survey indicated that 36% of RHBs, 16% of ZHDs, and 33% of WoHOs did not have up-to-date job descriptions. The HRM staff were equally divided by gender at RHBs and ZHDs, but men occupied most of these positions at the FMOH (77%) and WoHOs (66%).
