Employee Resource Management VP Deborah Giannoni-Jackson
Giannoni-Jackson to leave USPS
PMG Pat Donahoe has announced Employee Resource Management VP Deborah Giannoni-Jackson is leaving the Postal Service.
During her seven years with USPS, the PMG said Giannoni-Jackson “revolutionized the way we deliver support and services to our employees.” She oversaw the migration of 40 management software systems to a single integrated system, standardizing and streamlining services and saving more than $230 million over five years.
Giannoni-Jackson’ also oversaw the establishment of the Human Resources Shared Services Center (HRSCC), consolidating Human Resources offices in 80 districts to a centralized location in Greensboro, NC. She also managed the conversion to online hiring as well as automated health and safety reporting and case management systems.
In addition to these accomplishments, the PMG credits Giannoni-Jackson with a reinvigorated Management Intern Program. “The Postal Service has benefited from the exchange between management interns and current employees,” he said.
Giannoni-Jackson will leave USPS May 3.
Spearheaded EEOC violation of career employees seeking internal career vacancies while she over saw and approved external promotions of unqualified new hires. Ensured external hires were over paid exceptional hire initial salaries while EAS and craft internal promotion percentages we kept at zero to 5% and PFP were zero percent. (Example: Recruiter, EAS-21 paid $85,000.00 without any really recruiting experience, while career EAS were denied the promotions. The current MI (Management Instruction) stated external hiring could only be done for substantially better qualified. And “experience is the best indicator of future success.” There are thousands of EAS-21 career employees who had to only get 5% or less on promotions to EAS-21 (Salary Range: $52,777.00 to $89,009.00 currently) in FY 2008 to 2010 the maximum was $85,000.00. All current career employees were harmed since most external hiring done since 2006 was done without first posting those positions to “All career employees” first as required by law. There are plenty contingent liability cases pending at the EEOC for the illegal hiring practices and abuse of authority of Employee Resource Management staff in Corporate Personnel Management and Talent Acquisition and Retention. Most EAS and craft have no idea that HRSSC is managed by Corporate Personnel Management room 1831 at Postal Headquarters. Which is co-located with Talent Acquisition and Retention (Rm. 1831) the previous manager for both section have also resigned even though they were external new hires in 2006 and/or 2007. The USPSOIG should investigate the hiring and promotion violations of the 2006 to 2013 era. And since eCareer went live in 2008. TW
There are so many delays because the understaffing of this centralized office. You often cannot talk to someone who knows certain info and you cannot schedule a time to address those issues. They will call back at sometime. So you wait by the phone for hours. Not a good plan
“saving more than $230 million” I call BS. Typical cost avoidance figure dreamed up by high level managers to justify their jobs. Anyone in the field who actually uses these new applications knows that they were a step BACKWARDS in usability and are COSTING us MORE than the older systems! I wonder if she had ties to the vendors who designed eHRSSC and the other SAP-based HR applications?
enufisenuf,
Finally someone mentions the fact that not only do Union guys get their Union retirement package…they also get their Postal retirement…two checks per month. Nice package!
Just another monkey job, what is the point?
Wonder how many APWU officials will be bailing out too and taking their golden parachutes (aka Officer Only retirement Fund)paid for by union dues.
easy to read people..she is leaving after 7 years of service….7 years…another outside hire who will be praised for what??? tsk..tsk..
WHAT SERVICE?
who?
I think these lies can be exposed. Shared Services is a crock of crap, which has not saved anything when it comes to employees needing assistance. I called about my fmla, and was on hold so long I gave up. I called the following day and eventually got through only to be told, oh call back friday or monday they wouldn’t have gotten to your paperwork in a day?!! What the **ck?
Mail carriers can be forced to work 6 days a week and overtime on their regular scheduled days off for 5-6 yrs at a time due to ‘needs of the service’ according to management. And if a carrier on the non-overtime list is forced to work this overtime and gets a work-related injury management forgets or refuses to give worker comp paperwork, delays it, denies it, and threatens to send to OIG, all due to ‘needs of the service’. And the head of Human Resources is bailing in this so-called era of crisis? What about ‘needs of the service’ to have ‘leadership’ that is experienced? Besides top USPS management micromanages every level of employee below them: how can she leave now?
