Labor Relations Officer

1 week ago


Sacramento, United States City of Sacramento Full time

**THE POSITION**:
**THIS POSTING WILL BE OPEN UNTIL FILLED**

**Application cut-off dates are Bi-Weekly (Every other Friday)**

**With supervisor approval, incumbents may be eligible for intermittent remote work; however, they must physically reside within the Sacramento region or have the ability to regularly report to a City of Sacramento physical worksite with little notice.**

The City of Sacramento's Human Resources Department is seeking a knowledgeable and motivated Labor Relations professional to join their dynamic team as a Labor Relations Officer. Labor Relations is the primary contact between the City's twelve (12) autonomous departments and the recognized labor organizations (i.e., unions) which represent City employees.
**IDEAL CANDIDATE STATEMENT**
- Communication skills capable of articulating both the interests of the City and their own understanding of an issue to ensure clarity and consistency in their interactions
- The ability to build and maintain trusting interpersonal relationships by utilizing effective conflict resolution techniques
- The capacity to function as a diplomatic representative of the City in collective bargaining meetings, discipline hearings, arbitration, and other similar venues.
- Functional knowledge of relevant labor related state and federal statutes and regulations including, but not limited to, the California Peace Officers Procedural Bill of Rights Act (POBR), the Firefighters Procedural Bill of Rights Act (FBOR), employee rights provided under NLRB v. Weingarten, Inc., and the Meyers-Milias-Brown Act (MMBA).

Under general direction, the Labor Relations Officer performs advanced, professional labor relations work; provides technical assistance and advises department managers on disciplinary matters and contract interpretations; performs labor relations research and analysis; prepares and presents grievance and interest arbitration cases; helps assure Citywide compliance with labor relations contractual agreements, City employment policies, and applicable Federal, State, and local laws, ordinances, and codes; and serves as chief negotiator with assigned bargaining units.
**DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTICS**

This advanced journey-level classification is populated with multiple incumbents. The Labor Relations Officer performs employee relations duties working with significant independent judgment toward established goals. Labor Relations Officer is distinguished from the next higher classification of Labor Relations Manager in that the latter is primarily defined by its supervisory/management role and general responsibility for day-to-day work with departments and contract administration. Labor Relations Officer is distinguished from the next lower-level classification of Labor Relations Analyst in that the latter does not have chief negotiator responsibility and does not independently perform grievance and arbitration related duties.
**SUPERVISION RECEIVED AND EXERCISED**

General direction is provided by the Labor Relations Manager. Responsibilities may include supervision of professional, technical, and/or other support positions.

**ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES**:

- The following duties are typical for this classification. Incumbents may not perform all the listed duties and/or may be required to perform related duties as needed:_
- Provides City officials, department managers, and employees with appropriate information, technical assistance, and recommendations regarding a wide variety of labor and personnel management issues; analyzes, interprets, and explains provisions of labor agreements, labor law, and City policies/procedures regarding labor relations issues; coordinates related actions and outcomes with all involved parties as required.
- Participates in the meet-and-confer process, either during the contract labor negotiation process and/or on individual matters; meets with department managers prior to bargaining sessions in order to identify management concerns and possible proposals; analyzes the impacts and costs of proposals and makes recommendations for City positions; serves as Chief Negotiator at the bargaining table for a specific bargaining session, unit, or other meeting; informs the Labor Relations Manager, Director of Human Resources, City Manager, City Council, and others on the status of the bargaining process as needed.
- Advises and may represent department managers regarding labor grievances and arbitration cases; investigates issues and proposes remedies; may render decisions on behalf of City management as a Step III grievance officer; develops and conducts training programs for managers, supervisors, and others regarding labor relations issues; recommends the development of labor relations and/or human resources policies and procedures.
