Omaha DHHS Member Enforces Her Rights, Wins Retroactive Pay Raise

NAPE/AFSCME member Jennifer Nettles, a Resource Developer for the Department of Health and Human Services in Omaha, enforced her rights by challenging her unsatisfactory 2023 performance evaluation.
In August 2023, Jennifer began a new role with DHHS as a Resource Developer. She previously worked as a DD Service Coordinator and was excited to transition into her new position.
“I was ready to try something different and learn something new while also staying with the State because I’d been here for so long,” Jennifer said. “The evaluation process in my new division was very different from what I’m used to. I’m almost done with my fourteenth year with DHHS and have never received a bad evaluation, so I was blindsided.”
Jennifer’s 2023 performance evaluation only covered her performance as a Resource Developer, meaning that she was evaluated based on less than half of her work in 2023. Additionally, Jennifer was not given performance standards until several weeks after she began working in her new position.
