General Discussion

Hello, everyone! I'm taking a pulse of current practices CA counties are using related to succession planning. If you have a program, policy, or practice that works could you please share or leave the name of your team member my team can reach out to?

Much appreciation to all!

OPM finalizes performance review overhaul for federal employees | Federal News Network

Some of you may be interested in changes made to performance reviews by the Office of Personnel Management for federal employees. They will limit how many employees can be deemed high performers, OPM’s final rule also eliminates “level 2” of the government’s five-level scale for employee performance ratings; removes the ability for employees to contest their performance ratings through grievance and arbitration proceedings; and requires OPM to review agencies’ performance rating systems every other year."

Hi All-

Do any of your code enforcement staff utilize body-worn cameras? We don't here in El Dorado but I'm curious about other counties.

Thank you,

The Los Angeles County Department of Human Resources is conducting a brief, time-sensitive information-gathering effort regarding pre-employment/post-offer medical screening practices for probation officers and would appreciate your assistance.

If possible, could you please share the following for your agency:

• Your current class specification documents for all Probation Officer positions (or equivalent job descriptions), and essential function job analyses, if any. 

• Whether your probation officers are subject to P.O.S.T. standards or are not covered by P.O.S.T.

• A brief description of your pre-employment post-offer occupational health/medical screening process for your probation officers, including:

  • A copy of the clinical protocol or medical examination guidelines used by your occupational health provider to conduct the post-offer physical examination.
