Human Resources Department
The Human Resources, or HR, Department is made up of several different sections each with a responsibility to provide for the support and development of our employees and prospective employees. The HR department comprises;
- Occupational Health Safety and Welfare
- Human Resource Services
- Training, Learning and Development
- HR Admin
Each of these teams has a head of section with the departmental manager being the Area Manager HR. Strategic responsibility for the Human Resources function and corporate HR issues comes via the Assistant Chief Fire Officer HR who is a member of our Strategic Leadership Team.
We have professional teams of people within each of these sections all of whom come from a variety of backgrounds. These teams are made up of both uniformed and non uniformed employees each contributing to a very solid background of both operational (fire fighting) experience, as well as experience of industry and public sector working.
As a result of our blend of people within the department, we are able to support the organisation and its employees in a wide ranging series of activities which include recruitment and selection, equality and diversity, occupational health and welfare, training and development activities and employee relations.
This year we are particularly proud to introduce our human resources strategy which is called ‘The People Strategy’. The People Strategy describes our ambitions and objectives for the department over the next three years and is the means by which we will measure our contribution to the aim of Derbyshire Fire and Rescue Service to achieve excellence.
