The Lafourche Parish Department of Civil Service is committed to providing equal employment opportunities and to insuring that classified employees work in an environment where quality and productivity are encouraged and acknowledged to promote effective career service in parish employment. Civil Service provides the system and service that enables the parish to make merit-based, quality decisions to attract, develop, and retain a productive and diverse workforce that provides quality services to the citizens of Lafourche Parish.

Civil Service manages the position classification plan, uniform plan of salary ranges, classified job opportunities, examinations, receipt of classified employment applications, job descriptions, performance evaluations, and employee appeal petitions. I am, however, available to listen to employee concerns and provide guidance/direction when necessary. The information discussed in employee meetings is kept confidential. The Civil Service Department can be reached at (985) 493-6656 or 493-6657 and is located on the third floor of the Thibodaux Government Complex. If you should need assistance, please give Jill or I a call or come by and visit.
