Civilian Personnel Advisory Center (CPAC) - (NAF)

Mission:

Civilian Human Resources Agency provides the full range of human resources services to support a highly skilled and professional civilian workforce that supports national defense.

Divisions and Services:

Staffing

There are two staffing teams. One services Child and Youth Services (CYS) with a plethora of virtual HR support, and a local supervisor and an HR assistant. The other team services all other divisions with Family and Morale, Welfare and Recreation (not including CYS) and is composed of the same local supervisor and an HR assistant. The local staffing teams advise FMWR management on recruiting for vacant positions. Recruitment consists of classification of position descriptions, announcing vacancies on USA Jobs, rating resumes, and referring highly qualified candidates to management. Once management has made a valid selection, the NAF HR team makes tentative job offers, initiates pre-employment requirements, makes firm / final job offers, and sets entry on duty dates. The staffing team also advises management on strategic recruitment to include non-competitive hiring authorities, position management, and other facets of recruitment.

Labor Relations/Management-Employee Relations

The L/MER specialist advises management on bargaining unit obligations. There are five local bargaining units (unions) at Fort Drum representing white collar, blue collar, firefighters and Non-Appropriated Fund employees.
