  4. Constraints • Small HR staff • Very limited money – we are a do it yourself organization • Confidentiality and privacy (laws) • DOE regulations, the contract , orders esp. Order 350.1 –contractor human resources programs, cost allowability • An ever increasing number of laws and regulations in every area of HR • The no problem • Other communication problems • Lab Budget • Audits • The approval process for programs • Lab culture • We create programs but managers implement them

  5. Realities at Fermilab • Many factors force the Lab to change • HR is on the forefront of change • We have a culture that values independence and autonomous organizations • It is hard to get a good program implemented correctly starting with resistance to training.

  6. We made a mistake, we’re human Annually • Resumes received 22,000 • Interviews 355 • Hires 170 • Records transactions 5,000 • Ad hoc report inquiries 1,000 • Visa actions 500 • Benefits paper changes 1,500 • Benefits in-person meetings 2,700 • 980 trained in 90 courses

  7. Reviews • We are reviewed by DOE, auditors, peer reviewers • On whole we are cited as an HR department that is up to date, launching and achieving a large number of new initiatives each year considering our size and incorporating best practices, meeting all contractual and legal requirements • Our staff is professional and our policies and procedures are sound, often best practice

  8. We hear you want us to improve • You want a friendlier, higher touch organization • You want good timely customer service every time • You want correct and complete information • You want improved services

  9. We are open to and practice continuous improvement Every year we target areas that we will improve. Examples: • Job family reviews • International orientation • Work life initiatives • Diversity initiatives • Personnel requisition process • Day camp

  10. Response to focus group • I solicited suggestions through many means: personal meetings, my column, discussion groups, e-mails. • The HR group met on a regular basis to brainstorm. • We prioritized actions.

  11. HR initiatives • Customer service standards developed for WDRS linked to performance goals. • Ask HR launched – HR department visits to Lab sites. • Retirement sessions and open enrollment held at many Lab sites. • Tell HR developed – customer survey by trans action. 15 so far, satisfaction rating 4.9/5.0 • Good customer service rewarded

  12. HR initiatives • Information whiteboards posted • Who Does What in HR published • Entirely new HR website • Monthly benefits bulletins published • Monthly HR meetings with speakers • Reconfigured benefits positions

  13. What’s next? • 15th floor signage and possibly a receptionist • On-line appointment system for Benefits, exit interviews, and visas • Job trading • Get to know HR systems, procedures and people • Annual HR report

  14. How can we work together? • Suggestions your small groups came up with are a great example. Thank you. • We are happy to have a group to work with that will be informed and generate new ideas.

  15. You asked what we needed • The ideal HR organization would have more staff and more budget. • It would help if people read communications and participated in information sessions and training.

  16. Flexible Work Schedules • Past committee did a lot of work – notes available • Also currently available – part time, flex time, job sharing, work at home but not consistent across lab • What else might your group look at? – summer schedules, alternate work schedules • We conducted an AWS pilot three years ago. • We have already developed some policies we could use.

  17. Flexible Work Schedules • Use us as subject matter experts. • We are definitely interested in flexible work schedules and can partner with you.
