  The Robert L. Negri Human Resources Achievement Award is 
  an annual award made by the Department of Personnel 
  Administration (DPA).  The purpose of this award is to 
  provide you the opportunity to identify and recognize 
  outstanding performance and achievement by an employee or 
  unit in the field of Human Resources in your 
  organization.  The 1998 honoree was Rick McWilliam, 
  Division Chief, Labor Relations, Department of Personnel 
  Administration.
  
  Bob Negri began State employment in 1968 with the 
  Department of Transportation where he served as Chief of 
  Employee Safety, as Chief of Labor Relations, and until 
  his death in December, 1990, as Chief, Division of 
  Personnel Management.  During his career, Bob served on 
  the National Safety Council, worked with the American 
  Association of State Transportation Officials and with 
  the Transportation Research Board, providing consultation 
  in the areas of personnel, training, labor relations and 
  safety.  Bob was an acknowledged leader in the human 
  resources field and he played a key role in defining 
  labor relations in State government.  He was a member of 
  the State's first negotiating team, a chief negotiator in 
  subsequent labor negotiations, and a respected advisor to 
  colleagues and Department Directors.
  
  The recipient of this award will receive statewide 
  recognition at the annual DPA Labor Relations and
