The base’s HRO not only advises management officials in operating a proper personnel program, but also offers information in response to inquiries from employees and the general public about jobs in the Federal Service. The Human Resources OfYce provides advisory service to managers, supervisors and employees on the following program areas: Compensation, Employee Relations, Equal Employment Opportunity, Labor Relations, Position Classification, Staffing and Training and Employee Development. Functions include recruitment and placement, pay benefits, workers’ compensation, leave administration, recognition/awards, conduct, performance, affirmative employment programs, complaints processing, labor management relationships, contract administration, position management; determine occupational categories and grade levels for pay purposes; determine eligibility and qualifications for positions; refer candidates for vacancies; administer the Merit Promotion Program; recruit locally under the Navy Career Intern Program; and manage and promote effective use of the Defense Civilian Personnel Data System.
