DEP is the largest combined municipal water and wastewater utility in the country, with nearly 6,000 employees. DEP's water supply system is comprised of 19 reservoirs and 3 controlled lakes throughout the system’s 2,000 square mile watershed that extends 125 miles north and west of the City.

The Bureau of Organizational Development & Human Resources (OD&HR) is DEP's internal consultant and partner on organizational culture change and human resources matters for the Agency's workforce within the five NYC boroughs and locations that are up to 150 miles north of the City.

We embrace the diversity of our workforce including differences in culture, ethnicity, gender, educational levels, job functions and more. We manage the full range of employee services from recruitment to retirement and offer employees support all along the way. OD&HR identifies and responds to employee concerns, staff development needs, and current and strategic talent requirements. We collaborate with employees, Agency leadership, employee representatives, employee affinity groups, and other City agencies to assure compliance with laws, policies and procedures, to facilitate sustainable practices and processes and to meet the Agency’s workforce needs.
