Welcome to the
Human Resources Department's web page.
Our web page has been updated and
designed to provide the visitor with useful information, ranging from how to apply for a job with the City, to tips on how
to be competitively successful in an employment testing situation. The page is designed to
offer you a close-up of the Human Resources
Department, and brief descriptions of the various
operations and roles.
Once referred to as “personnel”,
the role and functions of Human Resources have rapidly expanded, partly in response to
regulatory requirements affecting employers---to include such responsibilities as equal
employment opportunity programs, health and safety efforts, labor relations, more complex
and variable benefits programs, specialized training and development, and a range of
organizational development, and career planning programs that had not been
considered essential in simpler times.
Depicted in the chart are the various
strategic and operational roles associated with the management of human resources within
the City of Pasadena. The HR management
strategic role emphasizes that the employees are the most valuable resources and they
represent a significant investment in the organization. The operational role of HR
management is administrative and tactical in nature; ensuring that there is compliance
with city policies, equal employment opportunity and other employment laws and
regulations.
