    Chapter Service Representative - Red Cross Youth / International Humanitarian Law
    Apr 2018
    9 to 10 years in the role, former employee
    It's where you get to help people, touch lives and get paid!
    The good thingsThe best things I had working with PRC were made within the work place, with my co-workers and primarily by choosing my attitude towards work. The employer/management has a little thing to do with the good experiences apart from providing opportunities and experiences to learn from it. All the rest depended on the person's attitude and work ethics. Its our way of looking at things and creating meaningful moments during work hours that made me stay here for 9 years as a staff and 6 years as a volunteer :)
    The challengesCreation of a Promotion & merit system which are outcomes/results-based Minimizing micromanagement would be a great help Improvement of training process of staff would be the best. Inclusion of a regular R&R for the stressed humanitarian workers would help. XD
