Department Description The Human Resource Department serves various departments, current, and potential employees, which includes providing relevant information and addressing internal and external queries. Human Resources is the liaison between employees and department heads/supervisors. Our Department’s Purpose is to: 1. Provide relevant, accurate information to employees, i.e., benefits, payroll, FMLA, and maintenance of personnel files. 2. Provide support to departments and employees, including resolution of personnel issues, city programs, human resources processes, i.e., posting vacancies, hiring, transfers, and separation. 3. Assure compliance with city policies, state, and federal regulations. 4. Maintain an “open door” policy for all employees.
Department Highlights The Human Resource department is currently implementing the Tyler-HCM system. The conversion started in July 2019 and will be completed in April 2020. Tyler-HCM will be a great asset to the HR department and the entire City of Roswell, by maintaining personnel and payroll.
Recruitment Search Process CivicHR is an on-line electronic system available to post vacancies and permit applicants to submit a job application. Employment seekers can access the city’s vacancies and submit applications through the city’s website. All personnel activity is routed through CivicHR by supervisors/ department heads, which includes requesting a personnel promotion, request for reclassification, posting a vacancy, and selection of applicants for hire.
Open Benefit Enrollment During open enrollment in October, around 40 employees came to the Human Resources Benefits Specialist to make changes in their insurance coverage.
Worker’s Compensation The Benefit Specialist worked with employees during 2019 to coordinate communication between the Worker’s Compensation Administration and City employees. The Benefits Specialist and Safety/ Risk Manager collaborate relative to incidents and accidents, which may or may not fall under a Worker’s Compensation Claim.
