# 23 U.S.C. § 174 - State human capital plans
|
||
|
||
## Text
|
||
|
||
(a) In General.— Not later than 18 months after the date of enactment of this section, the Secretary shall encourage each State to develop a voluntary plan, to be known as a “human capital plan”, that provides for the immediate and long-term personnel and workforce needs of the State with respect to the capacity of the State to deliver transportation and public infrastructure eligible under this title.
|
||
|
||
(b) Plan Contents.— (1) In general.— A human capital plan developed by a State under subsection (a) shall, to the maximum extent practicable, take into consideration—
|
||
|
||
(A) significant transportation workforce trends, needs, issues, and challenges with respect to the State;
|
||
|
||
(B) the human capital policies, strategies, and performance measures that will guide the transportation-related workforce investment decisions of the State;
|
||
|
||
(C) coordination with educational institutions, industry, organized labor, workforce boards, and other agencies or organizations to address the human capital transportation needs of the State;
|
||
|
||
(D) a workforce planning strategy that identifies current and future human capital needs, including the knowledge, skills, and abilities needed to recruit and retain skilled workers in the transportation industry;
|
||
|
||
(E) a human capital management strategy that is aligned with the transportation mission, goals, and organizational objectives of the State;
|
||
|
||
(F) an implementation system for workforce goals focused on addressing continuity of leadership and knowledge sharing across the State;
|
||
|
||
(G) an implementation system that addresses workforce competency gaps, particularly in mission-critical occupations;
|
||
|
||
(H) in the case of public-private partnerships or other alternative project delivery methods to carry out the transportation program of the State, a description of workforce needs—
|
||
|
||
(i) to ensure that the transportation mission, goals, and organizational objectives of the State are fully carried out; and
|
||
|
||
(ii) to ensure that procurement methods provide the best public value;
|
||
|
||
(I) a system for analyzing and evaluating the performance of the State department of transportation with respect to all aspects of human capital management policies, programs, and activities; and
|
||
|
||
(J) the manner in which the plan will improve the ability of the State to meet the national policy in support of performance management established under section 150.
|
||
|
||
(2) Planning period.— If a State develops a human capital plan under subsection (a), the plan shall address a 5-year forecast period.
|
||
|
||
(c) Plan Updates.— If a State develops a human capital plan under subsection (a), the State shall update the plan not less frequently than once every 5 years.
|
||
|
||
(d) Relationship to Long-range Plan.— (1) In general.— Subject to paragraph (2), a human capital plan developed by a State under subsection (a) may be developed separately from, or incorporated into, the long-range statewide transportation plan required under section 135.
|
||
|
||
(2) Effect of section.— Nothing in this section requires a State, or authorizes the Secretary to require a State, to incorporate a human capital plan into the long-range statewide transportation plan required under section 135.
|
||
|
||
(e) Public Availability.— Each State that develops a human capital plan under subsection (a) shall make a copy of the plan available to the public in a user-friendly format on the website of the State department of transportation.
|
||
|
||
(f) Savings Provision.— Nothing in this section prevents a State from carrying out transportation workforce planning—
|
||
|
||
(1) not described in this section; or
|
||
|
||
(2) not in accordance with this section.
