Title
Congratulations to Karen Rosales, Finance Department recipient of "Employee of the Month Award", for June, 2024.
Body
Karen started with the City in October 2023 and got herself immediately immersed in the
training and implementation of the new HR/Payroll and Timekeeping Systems that went live
in January 2024. She was fully engaged in the process and stayed long nights and weekends
in meetings and training sessions. Although new to the City, she took on the task of
responding to employee concerns and questions, creating a log of issues and areas of
concerns brought out by employees and her colleagues. Karen has developed a very good
understanding of the new timekeeping system called WFM and assumed the responsibility
of monitoring and reviewing time entries of certain departments/divisions on a regular basis.
She continues to learn and understand the city’s personnel rules and regulations and payroll
process. She has a positive work attitude and works well with the payroll sta, timekeepers
and human resources teams.
On payroll periods with shorter processing time due to holidays, Karen worked long hours to
complete her share of the work load and extends help to her co-workers to complete the
payroll on time.
Overall, Karen continues to demonstrate dedication in her job, provide excellent service to
our employees and positive relationship with her coworkers. She is highly reliable, fully
engaged and overall a very good employee. Our department is fortunate to have an
employee like Karen in our team.
