Additional Notes Formalize by Department head? Via letter Send letter to dean/unit head/etc. explaining liaison and role Agency representation within Department? 4 departments in some suites, schools have many Departments Fluid structure due to school/Department numbers? Contact unit directors (dean, vice chancellor, etc..) for structure? Most liaisons are also HR person (timekeepers, etc..) Base on population numbers of each division/Department? Unsure of role of liaison, clarification of role Necessary to have backup Clarify difference in staff senate vs liaison Liaison not interpreter of policy Liaisons should know limitation? When to refer to hr Clear knowledge of HR employees’ roles, website role directory well publicized liaison role on webo Training, certification, toolkit Liaison duties spelled out in job description/vacancy? Liaison just a communicator? Or evolution of role? Expand? No? Department’s expectations of person in liaison role have increased over years Call for topics prior to meeting? Link to liaison site on web in every email to liaisonsOverall SummaryThe consensus of the HRS Liaison group was that bi-monthly meetings would be appropriate, ratherthan monthly meetings. Facilitating a more interactive relationship with liaisons via more structuredmeetings and on-line discussion boards/communities was also a popular idea. Representation from theEPA and the Graduate offices is also recommended. Liaisons would like to see the HR Liaison websiteenhanced with a clear mission/charge, membership rosters, up-to-date documentation, and links to onlinetoolkits. Though the structure of the current group was generally agreed to be satisfactory, it wasrecommended that a letter be sent to department heads and/or deans and vice chancellors noting theresponsibilities of the HRS liaison and indicating the names of those currently serving in this role.123 Mossman Bldg, UNCG, PO Box 26170, Greensboro, NC 27402-6170334-5009 ● Fax 334-5585Internet Home Page: http://web.uncg.edu/hrsUNCG is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer
