Thanks for your insight in the daily operations of personnel. I concur and think that it is a great way to improve efficiency and accountability in the workplace. We will discuss your concept with our administrative team and consider implementing some of them. We will share our results with you and others and ask you to continue to share your findings.

[cid:[log in to unmask]] From: Extension Service Personnel Officers in the Southern Region <[log in to unmask]> On Behalf Of Chris Mcclendon Sent: Tuesday, November 27, 2018 8:42 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Guidance: Accountability efforts for field staff Greetings: We are working with our Administrative Team to provide guidance to supervisors in helping to hold employees accountable given the distance supervision that we face in our organizational structure. In meeting with our Business Office colleagues, we are looking at recommending random quarterly reviews of individual employees p-card purchases, calendar reviews, and submitted travel. Additional thoughts include a 'secret shopper' concept where designated personnel (supervisor or fiscal or HR) randomly stop by a County Office to see if employees are at work and/or programming. During a recent unannounced visits to a few county offices, it was discovered that several educators were not in the office and those with scheduled events on their outlook calendar, were not where they should be. Another had not been seen in the office for over a week. Any best practices on what you are doing in your state to help with this situation would be greatly appreciated. I can share the information collected.
