Administrative history
The Department of Personnel Services changed its name to the Human Resources Office in 2003. This office is responsible for several services at South Dakota State University. These services include employment, fringe benefits, staff training and records management. The mission of this office is to consult with and provide advice to employees and managers to foster a collaborative respectful and high quality work environment.
The Human Resources Office is also responsible for regulatory requirements. They distribute information regarding South Dakota State University and Board of Regents policies, as well as Bureau of Personnel, state, and federal rules and regulations as they relate to human resources. They also answer compliance questions regarding the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), and the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA).
