WORK HISTORY
Associate Administrator & Chief Human Resources Officer @Washington Hospital Healthcare System
Manage all Human resource functions for our health system located in the southern part of Alameda County. Originally hired as a Senior Director, promoted to Chief of Human Resources after 2 years, and promoted to my current newly created position of Associate Administrator/Chief Human Resources Officer after another 4 years of superior performance. I have proven executive level human resource experience in such areas as: strategic management, labor relations, compensation, benefits, talent management (recruitment), HRIS Systems, and organization development. Managed in a non-union and unionized environment (80% of the workforce was unionized with 6 unions). Wrote and updated all policies and procedures, resolved both employee and union driven grievances, managed Department of Labor audits, attended mediation conferences, represented organization at litigation hearings, and testified on behalf of organization at depositions. Revamped compensation and payroll “rule” processes resulting in significant savings and efficiencies with all employees being paid within market parameters. Successfully negotiated a new benefit plan which aligned organization’s health and welfare benefits to current market conditions. Revamped and managed Talent Management function so that all positions had a designated recruitment plan and designated recruitment sites which resulted in both efficiencies and savings. Proven experience in managing leaves of absences (used interactive process and familiar with FMLA and CFRA), including workers compensation leaves, and significantly decreased the amount of time employees were away from work. Used Lean Management principles which resulted in greater efficiencies, particularly in on-boarding, recruitment, personnel file maintenance, and employee relations. Conducted weekly rounding sessions in all departments to increase employee satisfaction and listen to employee concerns.
