All Fairmont State University employees should strive to develop and maintain positive and effective working relationships. Fairmont State encourages open, honest, and regular dialogue between supervisors and employees about work expectations, standards, and performance.
The Office of Human Resources encourages and promotes these positive working relationships among university employees through the efforts of its main office located in 230 Hardway Hall.
Human Resources is available to assist supervisors with coaching and counseling their employees; serve as an additional resource at employee meetings; recommend fair and appropriate disciplinary actions; provide guidance on documentation; help ensure consistency throughout the university community; and provide accurate information and guidance pertaining to various employee-related procedures, policies, and regulations.
Human Resources is also available to assist employees with addressing and resolving workplace disputes; oversee the complaint process; and recommend additional resources that may be helpful to the employee’s situation. Human Resources also oversees the process for accepting reports of suspected policy violations and complaints of employee misconduct.
