Human Resources
Introduction
The Human Resources Department supports the City of Grand Prairie’s workforce by managing employee recruitment, benefits, and
workplace policies. The department oversees hiring and onboarding, job classifications, pay plan administration, and employee
training and development. It also leads efforts to recognize outstanding employee performance and maintain positive employee
relations.
HR ensures compliance with state and federal regulations by conducting workplace investigations, overseeing the City’s substance
abuse program, and maintaining employee records. The department also manages civil service administration for police and fire
personnel, including testing, hearings, and coordination with the Civil Service Commission.
In addition to its operational responsibilities, Human Resources oversees the Employee Insurance Fund, which provides health and
wellness benefits for active employees and retirees, and the Risk Management Fund, which covers workers’ compensation, property,
and liability insurance. Through these efforts, HR helps foster a safe, supportive, and productive work environment for all City
employees.
