Minutes note: Crystal Reed-Hardy, HACM’s Chief Human Resources Officer, provided background information on the referral program. She explained it is another avenue to attract new employees, to encourage current employee engagement and to assist HACM in hiring hard-to-fill positions. Vice Chair Daniels asked which positions are hard to fill. Ms. Reed-Hardy answered that Maintenance Mechanic is currently challenging to fill. Commissioner Luckett added that over the past 20 years the skilled trades have not been encouraged, as a result, those fewer workers are harder to attract and to retain.
