This bureau provides the executive management of 27 psychiatric centers around the State with support and direction in personnel program management, operation and service. FPS staff are responsible for most non-face-to-face facility personnel functions including classification actions, staffing, and exam planning. Staff also participate in the analysis, development, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of personnel programs, policies and procedures that facilitate staffing for facility operations and appropriate patient care. They work directly with staff from the Department of Civil Service and the Division of the Budget on issues relating to facility personnel programs.

The incumbent has facility and title assignments and responsibility for working directly with facility human resource management staff and program staff of assigned facilities to ensure facilities have the staff needed to provide services to their patients. Duties include writing effective classification, reinstatement and increased hiring rate requests with emphasis on direct care and hard to fill titles, particularly nurses and physicians.
