Industry pack: Government and Public Sector

Government and Public Sector adds what a government and public sector organisation needs on top of HCM Core: establishment post, security clearance, declaration, vigilance case. Every screen carries charts, and the Overview answers the questions this industry asks first. It works with the people already in HCM Core and Employee; it changes nothing there.

1. Who uses it

Role	What they do
Department head	Reads vacancy, grade mix and overtime.
HR / establishment officer	Maintains the establishment of posts and clearances.
Integrity / ethics officer	Tracks asset declarations and vigilance cases.

2. Before you start

• Installed plugin: hcm-industry-government-public-sector (free tier; needs HCM Foundation and Employee). No licence feature has to be granted.
• Access: tenant administrators can use every screen; the Overview needs a tenant administrator or Report.View.
• Trial data: in a trial tenant, generate the Government and Public Sector industry pack in Demo Data: 10 establishment post, 8 security clearance, 10 declaration, 6 vigilance case.

3. Set up

1. Open Public Sector > Establishment and enter each department's sanctioned and filled posts per grade.
2. Record Security Clearances with level and expiry.
3. Record Declarations (assets, interests) due annually.
4. Record Vigilance Cases and their status.

4. Daily use

4.1 Establishment post

Sanctioned and filled posts of one grade in one department. The gap is the vacancy. Open Establishment post in the sidebar under Industry Pack, Government and Public Sector. Choose Add establishment post to add a record, click a row to change or delete it. The fields are: department, grade, sanctioned posts, filled posts.

4.2 Security clearance

Security or background clearance held, with level and expiry. Open Security clearance in the sidebar under Industry Pack, Government and Public Sector. Choose Add security clearance to add a record, click a row to change or delete it. The fields are: employee, department, level, status, expires on.

4.3 Declaration

Annual asset or interest declaration required of public officials. Open Declaration in the sidebar under Industry Pack, Government and Public Sector. Choose Add declaration to add a record, click a row to change or delete it. The fields are: official, kind, status, due on.

4.4 Vigilance case

A conduct or vigilance case with category and status. Open Vigilance case in the sidebar under Industry Pack, Government and Public Sector. Choose Open vigilance case to add a record, click a row to change or delete it. The fields are: case, department, category, status, opened on.

5. Charts, reports and exports

Figure	What it counts
Sanctioned posts
Vacancy rate %
Clearances expired
Declarations filed %
Open vigilance cases
Vacancy by department	Sanctioned minus filled posts
Clearances by level	Basic, secret, top secret
Declaration status	Filed, pending, overdue
Vigilance cases by category	What cases are about

Every list page also has charts of its own records (by status or category, and a trend), and the platform grid offers search, paging, column choice and export.

6. On a phone or tablet

Every screen works on a phone: tiles, charts and lists stack one per row, and the add and edit dialogs fit the screen.

7. Rules and limits

• Reservation or quota tracking differs by country and is not built; record those in your own policy documents.
• Vigilance cases hold category and status only: keep investigation files in the secure case system.
• The figures are only as good as the records entered. Benchmarks differ between sources, so none is hard-coded as a target: read the figures against your own history.

8. Troubleshooting

Symptom	Cause and fix
A chart says "Nothing to show yet"	No records yet, or none with the date or category the chart needs. Add records or generate the demo pack.
The Overview says forbidden	Your login is not a tenant administrator and lacks Report.View.
A screen is missing from the sidebar	The plugin is not installed for this tenant. Ask a platform administrator to install hcm-industry-government-public-sector.
