Lead and support the organization's performance management processes, including goal setting, performance reviews, performance improvement plans, development planning, and leadership coaching.
Provide guidance and recommendations related to compensation decisions, including salary actions, internal equity considerations, union wage adjustments, promotional increases, and bonus recommendations.
Oversee and support disability management, medical leaves, return-to-work and accommodation processes, WCB claims, attendance matters, and benefits administration, working collaboratively with employees, leaders, external providers, and internal stakeholders.
Partner with Health & Safety and operational leadership to support a strong safety culture and ensure HR practices align with workplace health and safety requirements.
Develop, review, implement, and maintain HR policies, practices, and processes in accordance with organizational requirements and applicable federal employment and labour legislation.
Analyze and report on key workforce metrics, including headcount, recruitment, turnover, absenteeism, disability, compensation, and other workforce trends, identifying risks and opportunities and recommending appropriate actions.
Partner with HR leadership to prepare regular workforce reporting and provide insights that support business and workforce planning decisions.
Support employee engagement initiatives and surveys, work with leaders to identify themes, develop action plans, and address opportunities for improvement.
Lead or support organizational change and transformation initiatives, including organizational restructuring, business integration, process changes, HR system implementation, and workforce communications.
Manage employee exits and offboarding processes, ensuring appropriate documentation, risk assessment, communication, and compliance.
Support leadership communications, employee meetings, and other organizational messaging in partnership with internal stakeholders.
