Human Resources Analyst I/II Class Specification

Human Resources Analyst is a flexibly staffed position. Level and salary range placement is dependent upon an incumbent’s experience and qualifications.

Definition

Under direction of a Human Resources Manager, performs a variety of research and detail-oriented project work and professional activities in support of human resources functions including classification and compensation plan administration, job analysis, recruitment and selection, labor relations program and related work as assigned.  While this class may be flexibly staffed based on department needs, the Human Resources Analyst III class is reserved for the most significantly responsible assignments requiring complex analysis, independent judgment, and formulation of important recommendations.

Class Characteristics

Human Resources Analyst I:  This is the entry-level class in the professional Human Resources Analyst series.  Initially under close supervision, incumbents may perform the more routine classification and salary survey projects, some recruitment and selection activities, and have some exposure to routine labor relations assignments.  The Human Resources Analyst I receives direct supervision from higher-level professional or management staff.  Frequent contacts are made with members of the Human Resources Department management team, other Human Resources staff, mid-managers, employee organization representatives, other employees of the City of Fremont, and Human Resources staff. This class is distinguished from the Human Resources Analyst II in that incumbents in the latter class are expected to perform the full scope of journey level professional assignments under general, rather than direct, supervision.
Human Resources Analyst II:  This is the full journey-level class in the professional Human Resources Analyst series.  Employees within this class are distinguished by the performance of the full range of duties as assigned, including conducting classification and salary studies, performing job analyses, administering Citywide classification plans and programs, developing compensation recommendations and designing and administering recruitment and selection activities. The Human Resources Analyst II may participate in labor relations functions such as note taking and research and analysis of proposals presented in bargaining unit negotiations.  Employees at this level receive only occasional instruction or assistance as new or unusual situations arise, and are fully knowledgeable of the applicable human resources principles and practices.
