What an honor it is to serve as your Secretary of the Personnel Cabinet. Whether you are currently serving as a state employee or seeking to join our family, I hope that you will find right here, at your fingertips, all of the information you need to make those important employment related decisions.
As your Secretary, I shall engage our Cabinet in exploring opportunities to connect with all of you in deeper, more meaningful ways. We shall be ever mindful of our obligation to serve our customers and to exercise wise stewardship over our critical human resources. Thus, our focus shall be to develop and execute a human capital strategy that truly exceeds your expectations and delivers service and standards that assist you in building your career with our Commonwealth. By continually assessing "what we do", that is, the core offerings of our Cabinet; as well as "how we do it", assuring our work adheres to the highest ethical/trust-building standard, we shall succeed.
In his inaugural speech, Governor Beshear challenged all of us to ". . . choose the path of progress. This path will involve new thinking and new ideas. It will require cooperation and patience. . . and it will demand courage".
It is with this renewed sense of cooperation, patience and courage that our Cabinet shall continually seek excellence in the delivery of our services. Whether it relates to our career opportunities portal, our benefit packages, the state's EEO/AA focus, our training and development initiatives, or our organizational policy directives, please reach out to us, give us feedback, challenge us, and hold us accountable for meeting your needs.
Our goal is simple: we aspire to be an employer of choice; to seek the best talent in the state; and to offer, in exchange, a rewarding work environment, one that resonates with meaning, provides a safe social climate, and encourages employees to grow, create, and innovate.
We exist to serve those who serve the citizens of our great Commonwealth. We hope that within the pages of this website, you will find everything that you need to help you perform this noble service.
Yours in Service,
Nikki Jackson
Secretary
Personnel Cabinet
