Division of Human Resource Management

The Division of Human Resource Management (HRM) is responsible for ensuring NSF's 1,500 staff members can accomplish the important work of the Foundation by providing excellent customer service and support services in the areas of benefits and work/life programs, learning and development, employee and labor relations, staffing and recruiting, and strategic human capital planning. As a result of HRM's excellent customer service and support for staff, NSF ranks among the Top 10 Best Midsize Places to Work. KEY SERVICES The extensive benefits and work/life programs at NSF provide staff the support they need to carry out the mission of the agency while also managing their everyday lives. Some of these benefits include access to health, dental and vision insurance; long term care and life insurance; retirement planning; support for dependent care and parenting needs; onsite counseling for various topics; legal and financial services; health and wellness services; and other workplace flexibilities. HRM supports the mission of the Foundation by providing services that support the needs of employees and managers in other areas, such as learning and education, professional and leadership development, employee engagement, strategic human capital planning, data reporting and analysis, performance management, employee awards and recognition, labor relations, staffing and recruiting, and more. Each of these areas of support help ensure that NSF is hiring, supporting, and retaining the best employees to forge the frontier in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics.
