Reform 1.12: De-Layering

Examine Opportunities for “De-Layering” of Middle Management Positions.

Other Information:

Multiple layers of management exist within city departments that should be reviewed. Several city labor unions have raised the issue – providing for potential agreement on cost saving ideas. As agency strategic plans are developed, and as the Office of Human Resources begins work on Succession Planning, an analysis of levels and layers of management should be conducted in each city department with a goal of reducing layers – and redeploying as many city employees to front line service delivery.
