Key Achievements and Projects
Prepared an information/procedures manual for employees being laid off. With a complex
bargaining unit contract, a lot of information has to be shared at the point of layoff such as
forms to be completed, clarification of bargaining unit rights including recall rights for those
who were entitled. Instead of simply laying off employees with a pink slip and a lot of verbal
instruction, this handbook was developed and distributed. - Rockwell International.
Developed a system of internal staffing to place dislocated employees (employees scheduled
for lay off) into bargaining unit jobs slated to be filled by new hires. If dislocated employees
had no seniority rights to open positions within the organization, they were laid off and open
positions went to “new hire“status. I proposed to the organization that instead of sending
committed workers out the door and hiring new employees, we should look at the possibility
of retaining every employee before opening a position to the public. This process required
careful review of personnel files to determine that dislocated workers had the basic skills to
perform jobs that were about to become open to the public. It also required a thorough
understanding of the bargaining unit agreement to make certain that no violations occurred.
– Rockwell International
Developed a system for tracking receivables and worked with departmental employees to help
them make the best use of that system. Using Peachtree Accounting Software, a system
was set up in which invoices were posted when receivables were established, then reports
were forwarded to appropriate staff to keep them informed of outstanding receivables and
status of all receivables customers. This system facilitated the ease of tracking and
collecting receivables. – King Arts Complex
