HR Generalist - Employee Lifecycle Operator

About the role

Human Resources Generalist Follow-Through Fanatic | Employee Lifecycle Operator | HRIS Craftsperson Do you keep a running mental list of the three follow-ups nobody else remembered? Are you the person a nervous manager calls before a hard conversation, and do you actually like getting that call? Do you read a new state leave requirement and immediately start counting which employees it touches? Do you get a small hit of satisfaction when an employee change lands in the HRIS clean the first time? Do you believe HR gets judged on whether the work got done, not on how good the slide deck looked? If so, keep reading… The team at RTA is looking for a Human Resources Generalist: our Follow-Through Fanatic, Employee Lifecycle Operator, and HRIS Craftsperson all rolled into one.

Responsibilities

• RTA already has established HR programs, policies, systems, and benefits, so this is not a build-it-from-scratch role. It is about owning the daily execution that keeps all of it running: employee changes, benefits and leaves, onboarding and offboarding, documentation, and the manager questions that show up without warning.
• Employee relations: answer day-to-day employee and manager questions, help managers document coaching, corrective actions, and performance plans, and follow up on the actions and deadlines that come out of them
• Investigations and separations: run employee relations reviews and workplace investigations, prepare separation documentation, and coordinate voluntary and involuntary offboarding
• Escalation: apply Company policies the same way twice, and know which matters go to leadership or outside employment counsel
• Benefits: run day-to-day administration of medical, dental, vision, HSA, 401(k), and wellness programs, answer employee questions, and work brokers and carriers directly when something breaks
• Enrollment: process enrollments, changes, and terminations, and execute annual open enrollment
• Leave: administer FMLA, parental leave, short-term disability, and applicable state programs, document ADA accommodations, and track dates, certifications, and return-to-work requirements
