Position: Human Resource Generalist

Organization: The Municipality of the County of Inverness – Port Hood Dear Hiring Manager,

I am looking for employment that best aligns with my worldview, beliefs, and interests after retiring from a career in the medical field. After reading information online about your organization and position, I am thrilled to apply for the HR Generalist, I have a bucket load of experience working in diverse workplaces, with diverse mandates, in different levels of management, including roles that had legislated human resource components as part of an accreditation process.

As a result of my knowledge, understanding, experience, and successfully navigating the interview, I was offered a position with the Paqtnkek First Nation as their Human Resource Director.

In these roles I have been responsible for developing job posting, completing the recruitment and selection process. Conducting reference checks prior to making a job offer. Additionally, I have provided support and services in recruitment, employee relations, training, staff wellness, and other related human resources activities. Once hired, I conducted the initial onboarding of newly hired staff with the plan to re-orient staff on an annual basis. During the employee’s employment, I have arranged ongoing mandatory training, and provided remedial training for employees whose performance needed attention.

I have developed an Employee Recognition Program ensuring timely and proper recognition is given to eligible employees for exceptional service. Likewise, I have assisted supervisors and managers with the expected method of providing direction, instruction, information, and supervision of employees.

I have reviewed and prepared recommendations to update the Human Resources Personnel Manual on an annual basis, in addition to ensuring compliance with relevant legislation. I have maintained detailed personnel files that included qualifications, training certificates, contracts, rewards, and progressive disciple. Additionally, I ensured that personal information was safeguarded against accident release or access. Ensure organizational charts are maintained, updated, and released in a timely manner. I have performed research and reporting on a variety of HR issues. Previously, I was required to take a Myers Briggs personality test. I was not surprised to learn that I am considered a Protagonist (ENFJ). I relate to being thoughtful, idealistic, and someone who strives to have a positive impact on other people and the world around them. Cell Phone 902-***-****

Health & Safety

Ensure all policies and procedures set forth

by the Municipality of the County of Inverness

are always observed. In addition to developing

new policies, I have experience applying

existing policies, procedures, and relevant Acts,

Codes, Regulations and Legislation.

I believe that we all have a duty to our

families and return home after work. Meaning

that while we expect employees to voluntarily

comply with rules, it is necessary to monitor

the workers and provide direction, instruction,

and training on health and safety.

Depending on the seriousness of any

contraventions or deviations to working safely,

there may be a need to immediately stop work,

or address the issue on-site, and address the

issue at the next scheduled health and safety

meeting, or toolbox talk.

Complete the necessary documentation or

incident reports needed to record

contraventions, violations, injuries, near

misses, and property damage regardless of

severity.

Submit accident reports and hazardous

incident reports to the CAO in a timely manner.

When possible, mitigate any manageable

hazards prior to completing incident reporting,

then report.

Ensure that employees are trained on their

rights to know what hazards are in their

workplace, that they can participate as a health

and safety rep or on the health and safety

committee.

Train employees that they are required to

contribute to a respectful workplace, and that

employees have the right to work in a

workplace that is free from violence,

harassment, discrimination, and sexual

harassment.

H&S REQUIREMENTS

I am a high achiever with lots of successes. I have a high level of energy and I possess the ability to work independently or as part of a team. I believe that there is little that I cannot learn to do. I have the ability and flexibility to work as needed. Likewise, I am creative, resourceful, and I am not afraid to ask questions or learn new skills to complete tasks. My default leadership style is to mentor staff, clearly define operational objectives and foster an environment of imagination, ingenuity, and creativity where possible. As a confident leader, effective manager, and proven team player, I am confident that my experience, skills, attitude, understanding, and passion make me a suitable candidate to interview. As noted on my Resume, some of my successes have included developing, submitting, and negotiating business cases with government agencies and their representatives. I have managed multi-million-dollar budgets and have a firm grasp on operating within funding allocation. Finally, I have extensive human resources experience, knowledge of both provincial and federal labour standards, and a strong belief in health, safety, and wellness.

I have managed and worked in union, and non-union environments. Furthermore, I have participated in union negotiations, and applied relevant standards, acts, codes, and legislation. I look forward to meeting with you to further discuss my qualifications and suitability for the position. Respectfully,
