About Human Resources
Welcome to the Office of Human Resources at Winston-Salem State University.
At WSSU, we believe our greatest strength is our people. Human Resources is committed to creating a workplace where employees feel valued, supported, and empowered to succeed. We are proud to serve our faculty, staff, and applicants by delivering innovative, responsive, and strategic human resource services that support both individual success and the University's mission.
Our team is dedicated to being more than a service provider we strive to be a trusted strategic partner. Whether we are recruiting exceptional talent, developing leaders, supporting employee well-being, enhancing workplace culture, implementing technology solutions, or ensuring compliance with employment laws and policies, our focus is on helping our employees thrive while advancing the University's strategic priorities.
Our Human Resources strategy is guided by an integrated Talent Management Framework that supports every stage of the employee lifecycle, from workforce planning and talent acquisition to onboarding, learning and development, performance management, employee engagement, succession planning, recognition, and retention. This holistic approach enables us to attract, develop, and retain an exceptional workforce while preparing the University for future success.
I encourage you to explore our website to learn more about the resources, services, and programs available to support you throughout your career at Winston-Salem State University.
