Mar. 2020 - Oct. 2022Morgantown, PAResponsible for HR and EHS for a fast-growing, multilingual building products manufacturer. Work with other Heads of Function and Executive leaders to develop and oversee business strategy and ensure that HR and EHS operations are aligned with the business’s goals. Redefined HR structure and increased productivity. After observing employee competencies and interests, developed new job descriptions with focused responsibilities to allow employees to acquire greater functional expertise in fewer areas instead of taking a “Jack-of-all-Trades” approach to HR management. Implemented talent strategy for temporary and permanent labor. Phase one reduced temporary labor expenditures by over 90% in fewer than six months while simultaneously increasing overall headcount by 15% YOY. Phase two is currently in progress, with the intent to reduce need for contingent and retained recruiters via redefined internal roles, a focus on employer branding, and sound networking and interview practices. Established compensation practices, increasing minimum wage by over 50% to $17 an hour. Built a market-based program that provides competitive wages to all new hires while adjusting internal employees who were out of line with the data. Helped bring definition and purpose to the company’s bonus programs by ensuring goals and criteria are tied to corporate strategy and effectively flowed down through the organization. With actuarial data, work with a broker to control annual benefits spending via effective negotiations with carriers. This process provides invaluable annual perspective on healthcare trends, allowing the company to occasionally reap cost savings and/or supplement existing benefits. By building an EHS function and improving management of open claims, reduced WC incurred expenses by over 90% over two years. Invited an ART practitioner for preventative ergonomic services for four hours a week. Established a culture of positivity around safety reporting and improvement.
