Human Resources - Payroll Division

HR Payroll’s primary role is to assist employees in needs concerning their payroll, personnel records and time entries.  This unit has a critical role in ensuring the accuracy and timeliness of the civilian and uniform employees’ payrolls, which are processed on alternating weeks.  The HR Payroll unit enters and maintains the information contained in the Human Resources Information System to ensure accuracy and currency.  The significance of this responsibility is indicated by the fact that HRIS data is used to generate the City’s weekly payroll and issuance of checks, pay stubs and other payroll related services.

Staff interacts with employees from all levels of the City organization and also works closely with Human Resources Generalists (HRGs) to research and resolve departmental payroll issues.  The Payroll business involves a myriad of transactions that must be executed on a daily basis.
