Classification and Compensation Classification and Compensation is responsible for maintaining the state's compensation plan for approximately 40,000 employees in classified, unclassified, and management service positions. The unit is also responsible for development and maintenance of the classification system. HR Audit Program HRSD established the HR Audit Program in July 2001 under the authority of State Policy 10.025.01 (pdf) "Audit of Human Resource Management Practices". The purpose of the program is to fulfill statutory obligations under ORS 240.215(2); 240.309(4); and 240.311(1) and legislative direction received during the 2001-03 budget approval process. The HR Audit Program is designed to improve the state's human resource management practices by: 1) identifying areas of noncompliance and providing state agencies with direction on required corrective actions, and 2) identifying best practices and sharing those practices with all state agencies. Human Resource Management and Consultation The Management and Consultation section is responsible for establishing a system of human resource administration for state government. We develop and implement the state's workforce management plan; develop and administer HRSD rules and policies; and provide consulting services and technical assistance to agency HR offices. Labor Relations Unit The Labor Relations Unit represents the Governor on behalf of all executive branch agencies in collective bargaining. Currently the Labor Relations Unit administers 31 collective bargaining agreements. These cover approximately 27,600 employees who are represented by 10 different labor organizations and one SEIU bargaining unit of 12,000 home care workers. Statewide Recruitment Services Our purpose is to provide statewide leadership in recruiting a skilled, diverse workforce for the State of Oregon. We focus on providing innovative solutions for improving the state’s recruitment process, creating and implementing a viable and sustainable succession planning process to provide workforce bench strength, and increasing representation of minority candidates in recruitment pools at all levels. Statewide Training and Development Services Statewide Training and Development Services is committed to increasing the effectiveness of Oregon state government by providing state, and local government employees with high quality training that is accessible, affordable, and relevant. Our staff and instructors are dedicated to making your education experiences the best they can be. | |
