The Director of DCHR shall consider whether any individual designated by a subordinate agency as an HR Authority or Alternate HR Authority has the qualifications and knowledge required to exercise any sub-delegated personnel functions on behalf of that particular agency.
A sub-delegation of authority to an individual designated to serve as a HR Authority or an Alternate HR Authority shall not be effective until approved by the Director of DCHR, and an official confirmation of designation shall be provided to each agency head and those designated.
An official confirmation of the designated HR Authority and Alternate HR Authority shall include:
After an HR Authority and an Alternate HR Authority have been approved and confirmed by the Director of DCHR, the agency head shall inform those designated of their approved responsibilities.
At the discretion of an agency head, the agency may designate only an HR Authority and not an Alternate HR Authority where the agency does not have the resources or capacity to also designate an Alternate HR Authority.
