I, Mario M. Cuomo, Governor of the State of New York, recognizing the need for the State to develop work force planning systems, procedures and expertise which will identify occupational and technological trends and needs within State government, to use its resources to train and retrain State employees so as to meet those needs, and to provide State management with work force data which will be used to improve the State's human resource management system, do hereby establish the following:

I. Comprehensive Work Force Planning Program.

There is hereby created a work force planning unit to be established within the Governor's Office of Employee Relations. This unit will develop and implement a comprehensive work force planning program which will be used to:

a. identify programmatic, occupational, technological and demographic trends and changes which affect the State's work force and offer training and retraining opportunities to respond to such trends and changes;
b. provide information, training, retraining and other resources to State employees which will enhance their opportunities for career mobility and advancement, while maintaining a stable State work force;
c. develop information and ongoing systems which will allow the State to shift its human resources from declining occupations to occupations experiencing growth and technological change;
d. develop appropriate data to assist management in decisions to combine, separate, add, or eliminate programs or services;
e. develop appropriate data to facilitate decisionmaking in the event of future reductions in force and to assist in identifying alternatives to employee layoffs;
f. serve as a means for unifying the State's human resource management policies.

The Director of Employee Relations shall consult with the public employee organizations which represent State employees on the implementation and use of the work force planning program.

Where appropriate, public community colleges, four year colleges, universities and private institutions in the State shall be utilized in the training and retraining programs established pursuant to this Order.

The Director of Employee Relations shall submit periodic reports to the Governor regarding the development, implementation and progress of this program.
