Forum:Human Resources

Department
As per the last meeting (June 14th 2019), it has been discussed whether the sub department 'Human resources' should become a subsidiary of OOC. While they will still retain their independency and would still function the same, it would be more so just including them under the OOC umbrella and have them have a more defined leadership. It is important to note that they would not be performing any OOC duties (unless it has been requested). Likewise, no OOC member will be performing any HR duties. The other two options involve both remaining the same as they are now, separate from all departments and under the leadership of all three bureaucrats. The second option would be retaining an admin and the third option would be removing the admin position and have it simply be two rollbacks. They would be under all three bureaucrats leadership.

Option One: Become a subsidiary of the Out of Character Department

Option Two: Remain as their own separate department without the admin position

Option Three: Remain as their own separate department with the inclusion of the admin position.

Duties
It has been said multiple times that people are unsure of what Human Resources is meant to do. The following list is a set of duties that they could perform to help around the wiki. Whilst their main purpose is to keep the peace between the different users so that we can all co-exist peacefully and to mediate any arguments and/or discussions, there are a few other list of duties that HR may perform.


 * Under the instruction of the department's bureaucrat, a HR member may be able to help with specific department duties. This will most likely happen when a department is understaffed.
 * For example, if there is a sudden influx of forums and not enough C&L members to cover it, then HR may be asked by C&L to look over the forums and see if there are any issues. They would most likely not be able to sort the forums (however if the C&L 'crat may give them permission).
 * Monitor chat boards and discussion pages (both on the wiki itself and on discord) and ensure that everyone is heard and treated fairly.
 * Help new users in their transition into the community. This includes helping them write forums, making their character pages and wordbubbles, roleplaying with them and answering any questions they might have. This does not mean that they are the only ones who can do this (it is expected everyone in the community welcomes new users with open arms), but they are expected to reach out.
 * Listen to suggestions from the community and help relay it to the community or the 'crats. This is particularly useful if a user does not feel comfortable coming forward themselves for whatever reason.
 * Encourage participation in the different expansions and activities. This could be helping AI advertise the activity on all available platforms and roleplaying there themselves in order to generate exposure to that specific event.
 * This could be expanded to encourage users to fill in specific IC positions, such as head of departments or an auror.

The main purpose of HR is to facilitate a friendly and positive environment for everyone. Their purpose is to also help support the other departments and ensure that the wiki is running smoothly as possible.
