The role of the Human Capital Office (HCO) is to integrate efforts to support the 130,000 military and civilian medical/support professionals that form the MHS.  We examine and adjust policies so MHS employees and members of the military benefit from better marketing of job opportunities, increased compensation, improved quality of work and more informed leaders. To accomplish our mission, we have three goals:

Goal 1:  Strengthen partnerships with internal and external organizations.

Goal 2:  Facilitate initiatives to support the Human Capital Lifecycle for the Total Medical Force.  The Human Capital Lifecycle spans the phases of an employer/employee relationship and includes planning, recruiting, educating, developing, retaining and transitioning.

Goal 3:  Promote an enterprise-wide view of MHS human capital that provides the ability to respond to inquiries through use of a unified information management capability.

Please find more information on our website about current initiatives and former accomplishments related to the Human Capital Lifecycle and goals above.  I hope you see links and information that improve your work and expand your opportunities.   Please check back often for updates.
