Introduction
Objectives
The Human Resources Policy Manual contains the human resource policies and procedures of the
Government of Newfoundland and Labrador. The objectives of this manual are to:
- provide a standard reference for managers and employees in understanding their rights and carrying out their
responsibilities;
- encourage continuity and consistency in the administration and application of human resource policy; and
- provide direction and authority in the day-to-day administration of human resources.
Application
These policies are approved by Treasury Board, administered by the Policy
and Planning Division and apply to all employees of Government Departments. However, where there
is a conflict between these policies and a collective agreement, the collective agreement will
take precedence
File Management and Amendments to the Manual
The Human Resources Policy Manual is available only as an electronic document on the World Wide Web.
Departments requiring hard copies of any policy should print them directly
from the browser.
The Policy and Planning Division will maintain up-to-date policy files. Policy changes will be
highlighted in the electronic manual. Departments will be responsible for notifying their employees
of policy changes.
The manual will replace the Personnel Administration Procedures Manual. Employees are directed to
continue to use the Personnel Administration Procedures Manual when referencing those policies
which do not appear in this manual.
