History

When the Local Government Unit of Malaybalay existed, the Human Resource functions were handled by designated employees or appointed Personnel Officers. At that time, the personnel was assigned under the Office of the Mayor of which some of the basic functions were leave administration, appointment and retirement processing, and other basic personnel-related activities.

Policies and guidelines of the Civil Service Commission were facilitated and implemented during this time. However, it was not systematically developed and technologically advanced considering few employees and personnel demands were minimal. In 1987, Ms. Julieta G. Dominguez was appointed as Personnel Officer I, she was one of the pioneers in the Human Resource Management Office whose functions were focused mainly on human resource management. Additionally, some of the personnel mechanisms were introduced and practiced under the close supervision of the Municipal Mayor’s Office. Years later, Ms. Dominguez was promoted as Human Resource Management Officer IV and consequently became the City Human Resource Officer on January 2, 2013. With that, human resource functions were divided simultaneously and policies and guidelines of the Civil Service Commission were facilitated and administered.

Throughout the development of the Local Government Unit of Malaybalay, the additional workforce had been added through the hiring of Job Order personnel wherein some were assigned to assist in the performance of Human Resource functions. Rank and file plantilla positions had been added as well to carry out the jobs in Personnel Administration.

As the number of personnel increased, the Human Resource Management became a division under the Office of the Administrator with the leadership of Fortunato C. Carbajal until Mr. Rolando P. Daniot was appointed as City Administrator in 2001.

With the appointment of City Administrator, the services were enhanced and tasks were properly delegated although some functions originated from the directives of the Administrator.

In 2008 the City Ordinance no. 624 was created, an ordinance creating the organizational structure and staffing pattern of the City Government of Malaybalay. Through this, the City Human Resource Management Office had been created. This was composed of two divisions and two sections respectively.

On June 30, 2013, with the retirement of Miss Julieta Dominguez, Mr. Romeo R. Lapeciros – Assistant City Administrator took over the leadership and served as the OIC of the Office until May 15, 2014, when Magnolia O. Improgo, DPA was employed and given the appointment as the City Human Resource Management Officer.
