Staffing of Roles

Define, monitor and supervise roles, responsibilities and compensation frameworks for personnel, including the requirement to adhere to management policies and procedures, the code of ethics, and professional practices. The level of supervision should be in line with the sensitivity of the position and extent of responsibilities assigned.

Hide Control Practices  help

  1. Define and regularly maintain descriptions of IT roles covering responsibilities to highlight any specific risk management, security and compliance requirements.
  2. Ensure that IT personnel acknowledge and document, upon hiring and periodically thereafter, their acceptance of role descriptions and responsibilities.
  3. Ensure that terms and conditions of employment stress the employee’s responsibility for information security, internal control and regulatory compliance, and address the assignment of all intellectual property rights to the organisation and non-disclosure of confidential information.
  4. Ensure that supervision for each role within IT is based on the risks posed by that role and is effected by an appropriate mechanism, including personal supervision, review of work, dual performance of tasks and/or automated monitoring.
