Supervisors Toolkit

The Supervisory Toolkit is an electronic handbook designed to help supervisors and managers understand employment policies and supervisory practices so that the Department's greatest asset, its employees, can be effectively managed to meet the Department's goals and mission. We encourage you to use the toolkit to assist with your supervisory responsibilities; however, you should consult your human resource office prior to taking any action.
