Description
The Civil Service Commission and Responsibilities:
The District adopted a Civil Service System for uniform standards in hiring, promotion and tenure for District employees. The five-member Civil Service Commission are volunteers who oversee the District's Civil Service System. Commissioners are appointed by the Board of Directors and serve four-year terms. Meetings typically occur quarterly (January, April, July and October) at 3pm at our Command and Business Operations Center in Tigard. Occasionally, special meetings are scheduled in addition to the regular quarterly meetings. Meetings address a variety of matters, including oversight of actions related to classification, examinations, eligible list management, appointment, and appeals.
