Description
Plans and schedules work of assigned staff performing work in three or more functional areas of Human Resources. Supervises the application of established human resources policies in employee relations, wage and salary administration, employment, benefits administration, training, AA/EEO, labor relations, safety, and special projects. May supervise research in the development of Human Resources policies and procedures. Supervises the preparation of reports as required by legislation or organization needs. May serve as liaison with the community or other outside agencies with regard to Human Resources activities and programs. Incumbents at this level 'lead and direct' a group of three or more individuals. There is virtually no authority for personnel actions normally associated with full supervisory status (e.g., salary increases, promotions, performance reviews, disciplinary actions). Coordinates the day-to-day operations of a group of employees. 'Leading and directing' is usually restricted to assigning, monitoring and reviewing progress and accuracy of work, directing efforts and providing technical guidance on more complex issues. Most of the work time is spent performing many of the same duties as subordinate employees. Employees in this classification typically analyze, compare and evaluate various courses of action and have the authority to make independent decisions on matters of significance, free from immediate direction, within the scope of their responsibilities. Primary activities and decision making authority are predominantly performed independently affecting business operations to a substantial degree. Under FLSA, this is the exempt job classification for this title. Incumbents in this position must meet the full criteria for exempt status: salary level, salary basis, and duties tests.
