Human Resources Summary
The Human Resources Department is a strategic business partner committed to providing high-quality service to all
operational departments of the City. The department is responsible for planning and implementing a comprehensive
human resources program that includes the following: recruitment/retention and employment selection,
compensation/job classi cation system, policy development and administration, training and career development, payroll
administration, employee relations, the performance evaluation program, and leave administration.

The City of Colleyville operates as an at-will employer, meaning all employment can be terminated by either the
employee or employer at any time, with or without cause. Unlike civil service cities, Colleyville does not have a Civil Service
Commission or a classi ed/unclassi ed system for employee appointments and promotions. Instead, all employees are
part of a merit-based system, with compensation determined by annual performance evaluations.

The Human Resources Department is responsible for administering the City's compensation and classi cation system,
which consists of two salary schedules:

. General Salar y Schedule: This schedule covers all employees who are not sworn members of the police or re
departments.
. Public Safety Salar y Schedule: This schedule applies speci cally to sworn police and re personnel.

The Human Resources Department works closely with all operating departments to develop training programs aimed at
enhancing supervisory skills, improving employee communication, and increasing productivity. The department
continually strives to align individual career development with the City's overall organizational goals and policies,
ensuring that opportunities for growth are available to all employees.

With the approval of the City Manager, the Human Resources Department is also responsible for developing,
implementing, and revising personnel policies and procedures. These policies govern compensation, equal employment
opportunity, leave policies, substance abuse prohibitions, employee grievance procedures, personnel records,
appointments and promotions, and performance evaluations, among other areas.
