The US Department of Labor’s long-time human resources leader is leaving the agency and a Department of Government Efficiency staffer is assuming HR roles at the DOL, according to two people familiar with the changes.
Sydney Rose, who worked in the federal government for more than four decades and is currently the chief human capital officer at the DOL, opted into the Trump administration’s deferred resignation program, according to a statement from Rose provided to Bloomberg Law by a DOL spokesperson. The program allows federal employees to voluntarily leave the agency while still being paid through September of this year.
“I did enroll in the Deferred Resignation Program and have begun the transition away from work,” Rose said in the statement.
Her exit from the agency comes as Stephanie Holmes, who has taken on human resource roles in other parts of the federal government, has joined the staff at the DOL and received an agency email address, according to one current and one former DOL employee.
Holmes, a labor and employment attorney, currently serves as chief human capital officer for the Interior Department. Before joining the Trump administration she founded a HR consulting firm BrighterSideHR.
