Examen especial a la Dirección de Talento Humano del Gobierno Autónomo Descentralizado Municipal del cantón San Miguel en el Año 2024

Abstract

This research aims to conduct a special audit of the Human Talent Directorate of the Decentralized Autonomous Municipal Government of the San Miguel Canton during 2024, in order to evaluate compliance with current legal regulations and analyze the efficiency of administrative processes related to personnel management. The research arises from the need to identify potential weaknesses in human talent management subsystems, such as job analysis, classification, and evaluation; planning; recruitment and selection; performance evaluation; and training and development, which can generate administrative risks if not implemented in accordance with established regulations. In this context, the special audit is presented as a technical tool of government auditing that allows for the verification of legality, efficiency, and transparency in institutional administration. The study was developed using a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative and quantitative methods to analyze human talent management. Deductive, inductive, and analytical methods were employed, along with techniques such as document review, compliance data sheets, interviews, and direct observation, applied to the staff of the Human Talent Directorate of the Municipal Government. The results of the special audit identified risks and deficiencies in the processes of the Human Talent subsystems. Finally, the research proposes recommendations aimed at strengthening human talent management, improving institutional efficiency, and contributing to transparency in public administration, benefiting both the institution and the public.
