Anchorage Mayor Bronson is promising an investigation into city hiring practices after the resignation of health department director Joe Gerace, who stepped down hours before the release of an investigation showing he made up credentials and work history.
Anchorage Health Department director Joe Gerace conducts a press conference in an emergency operations center at the department's downtown Anchorage office building on Friday, Dec. 3, 2021.
“Upon learning the shocking news yesterday about Joe Gerace, I immediately tasked the municipal manager’s office and human resources department to investigate the hiring of former health director Joe Gerace,” Bronson said during remarks at Tuesday’s Assembly meeting. Gerace’s credentials were presented to the Assembly during his confirmation hearing by the city’s human resources department director, Niki Tshibaka. On Tuesday morning, the municipal manager’s office and human resources department began a review of the department’s traditional hiring processes, Municipal Manager Amy Demboski told Assembly members. That includes its practices and the software used to perform background checks.
The investigation will include reviewing and verifying the credentials of all general municipal employees who have been hired since Bronson took office on July 1, 2021, she said. Constant said it is becoming clear the Assembly needs to carefully scrutinize information provided regarding mayoral appointees, “particularly information provided by the human resources department.”
