The executive director of human resources oversees a human resources organization devoted to four main functions including discrimination and harassment, labor relations, employment services and organizational and employee development. In addition to providing oversight and guidance to those units, the executive director is responsible for strategic planning and management for the Department of Human Resources, providing interpretation of federal laws, university policies and state and fiscal rules, the administration of required employment documents, and communication and outreach to the campus about human resources programs and issues.
The executive director also represents the 麻豆影院 campus to the University of Colorado System Human Resources Office. The 麻豆影院 campus is currently developing a more comprehensive human resources organization in order to provide expanded and enhanced services to all personnel groups on campus and to ensure greater consistency and application of human resources services.
