Chairman and Members The Personnel Board for Mobile County, Alabama Dear Members, 2012 began with the implementation of the online application system which was a major

undertaking for our department. As I review the implementation start-up which occurred in

February 2012 and use onward to year’s end, some statistics are revealing with respect to use

of the system. We posted 244 job announcements which received 225,041 hits or viewing

inquiries, resulting in 7,042 applications. Additionally 10,840 job interest cards were submitted.

While overall activities within the Department reflect a decrease in the number of

requests from the jurisdictions we serve, we undertook extensive efforts to provide training on

use of the on-line system. Seventy-one (71) Human Resource Users identified by each

jurisdiction have been trained and are using the system. As a result, approved personnel in

each jurisdiction now have the capability to submit an array of job requests, and receive referral

lists electronically. Applicants can create a user account, store their employment data in their

account and apply with ease electronically.

This is another milestone as we advance technology to improve our service offerings.

We are focused on expanding the capabilities of the system to address our response times and

add additional value to all our customers. We welcome your suggestions.

I thank the Board Members for their continued support. The employees in the

Department work hard and diligently to provide the service required of all our customers. Our

goal is to continue to foster an environment of collaboration (merit system employees, public

officials, support of community groups, interested individuals,) in order to deliver the services

expected of us by the citizenry.

I now invite you to read further for a recap of this past year’s activities.

HEARINGS ON APPEALS

During the year 2012 the Board held eighteen hearings on appeals from dismissal. The

Appointing Authority was upheld completely in nine cases. Six hearings convened and

settlement agreements were read into the record. At two hearings the employee did not appear

to a suspension and the employees was reinstated. Five decisions were appealed to Circuit

Court.

There were twelve suspension hearings held by the Board. The Appointing Authority

was upheld completely in seven cases and three appeals were settled during the hearings. The

length of the suspensions were altered in two cases. Two decisions of the Board were

appealed to Circuit Court.

Two hearings held by the Board were for appeals from demotion. In one case the

demotion was set aside and one case was settled after the hearing convened.

-3-

Two hearing were held that includes a demotion and suspension for both employees. In

one case the demotion and suspension were set aside. The second case was settled after the

hearing convened.

The Board held four hearings that were appeals to step three of the grievance

procedure. The Appointing Authority was upheld in all four cases; however, three of these

decisions were appealed to Circuit Court.

GRIEVANCES

During the year 2012, there were twenty-nine grievances filed. A total of twelve were

settled at the first step hearing, and three were withdrawn. Of the fourteen grievances that were

VETERANS A total of 599 employees received paid leave to participate in military training during

were still on military leave and thirty-five additional employees were granted leave during the

year. Thirty-eight employees safely returned to their job during the year, and fourteen

employees were still out as of December 31, 2012.

Also, extra points were awarded to 239 veterans who applied for open competitive

examinations during 2012.

INFORMATION SYSTEMS

Our busy schedule at the end of 2011 rolled right into 2012. In February, not only did we

roll out our new on-line applications system, but we also posted a fresh new look to our website

and installed kiosks in our lobby.

We brought several years’ worth of information from our old database system into the

new online application system (called Insight) so that we could run parallel on both systems until

we had a good grasp of the new system. The staff in the Test Administration/Employee

Application section did an outstanding job in learning the ins and outs of the system, and

making our decades-old processes fit into the new structure. Although the major portion of

technical assistance in Insight is out of our control, we are able to assist staff and applicants

with the intricacies of the system.

The website refresh was long overdue, and we combined the launch of the new look with

the start of our on-line application system. Linking several pages to the on-line system and

reorganizing the site structure provided easy access to our information.

One of the major changes in our on-line application system is that we no longer accept

paper applications. Recognizing that not all applicants would have access to the internet, we

installed four kiosks in our front lobby. These kiosks are strictly for applicants’ use, and staff

members are on hand to assist the applicants by answering questions and providing guidance

through the application process. These kiosks have document scanners built into the keyboard

to allow the applicant to scan any documents they may want to attach to their application. We

included links to several email providers so the applicant can set up and check their email

account for notices sent regarding their application. Judging by the number of applicants using

the kiosks, this is a valuable service to our community.

We began an equipment upgrade in the latter part of 2012, replacing some PCs so that

all are running the same software. This provides improved security, communications and

maintenance. We began the process of upgrading our written test scanner to improve efficiency

and provide a more direct upload of data to Insight. We hope to have it up and running by early

2013.

We created a database system to replace our manual paperwork flow process that

required employee folders to travel from one office to another. The system allows entry of

employee actions that can be viewed and acted upon by any number of staff. This should

decrease the time it takes to distribute information in-house.

Overall, 2012 was a year of improvements and enhancements and we look forward to

more of the same in 2013.

TRAINING & RECRUITMENT

Mobile County Personnel Board’s Training and Recruitment area continues in its efforts

to provide a platform for employee learning and development. In 2012, the focus of this area

was on training. As always, we are concerned about providing instruction that develops new

skills and polishes old ones. In that endeavor, we offered both instructor-led and online

programs that concentrated in the following:

Computer Skills Employee Development Programs Safety Training Skill Development Supervisory Skills and Topics Merit System Orientation

-12-

Recruitment in 2012, on the other hand, moved in a different direction with the

implementation of the new online application system. Traditional career and job fairs were

tabled in light of this new method of communicating with the public. As part of this change-over,

new publications and displays were prepared to inform the public about the system and how to

use it effectively.

In October 2012, the employee grievance process was transferred to the Training area.

This change now allows Training to see ways to help employees improve skills and develop

new ones. A report on employee grievances can be found in a different area of the annual

report.

Finally, proficiency testing for clerical positions requiring typing declined in 2012. The

need for such testing is often driven by the number and types of announcements opened

requiring this skill.

A numerical summary of our area’s work follows which includes training activities and

proficiency testing.
