The OA Council and UO Human Resources are sponsoring a special meeting to update officers of administration on several critical HR topics.

Thursday, May 26, 10:00–11:30 a.m.
Ford Alumni Center Ballroom and White Stag Building Room 150
RSVP for the May 26, 2016 OA Special Meeting

Human Resources is sponsoring this special meeting, and has reserved the Giustina Ballroom in the Ford Alumni Center so that all interested officers of administration will be able to attend and hear this important information.

As part of the Human Resources Year of Transformation, HR will share in detail its work to strengthen and standardize OA employment practices. Specific topics include:

OA Policy Development: The OA Policy Advisory Team is actively developing policies and procedures to govern OA employment at the university. Policies provide reference, guidance and resource for consistent administration of employment practices important to OAs such as performance management, recruitment and selection, and time off. HR will share information on policy development and opportunities in the future for OAs to engage in the process.

OA Compensation: Initiatives to establish a market-based compensation structure and related standard compensation practices are entering implementation stages with the intention of increasing UO’s ability to attract, reward, and retain OAs. HR will share information about the OA Compensation Project and provide updates on the next action steps and communications plan.

Talent Management: The streamlining of recruitment and talent management processes alongside the implementation of a new talent management system will transform key elements in the OA employment lifecycle. HR will provide an update on the process improvement project and Talent Management System Project and will share insight into how OAs will interface with the system.

At the start of the meeting, Yvette Alex-Assensoh, Vice President for Equity and Inclusion, will present a short overview of the Division of Equity and Inclusion’s Staff Professional Development Grant, to help UO staff develop skills that facilitate the institutionalization of equity, inclusion and diversity on campus.

All UO officers of administration are welcome. We hope to see you there!
