Civil Service
The mission of the Civil Service Department is to develop and enhance personnel services and programs for the City of Slidell by advising and assisting employees and management with accurate, timely, and current civil service-related information, including compliance with the Civil Service Rules. Information, guidance and expertise in all civil service matters are provided to the City Administration, department directors, and the Slidell Police Department using the guiding principles of professionalism, integrity, results-oriented action, teamwork, courtesy, and respect for individuals.
The Civil Service Department provides professional and administrative support to an independent Slidell Civil Service Board which represents the interests of all classified employees and is responsible to the Board for the administration of the Classified Civil Service System for the City. The department regularly evaluates and recommends amendments to Civil Service Rules to better serve the needs of the City and its employees. We are proud of the services we offer to our employees, with an aim to exceed expectations.
The City workforce includes full-time and part-time positions. Openings for vacant positions are advertised on the City bulletin board located next to the main entrance of City Hall on Second Street; the bulletin board in the Human Resources office; occasionally in the local newspapers and on our website’s home page. Applications for employment are available online.
If you need to speak with the Director, we recommend making an appointment.
