The City of Welch is dedicated to increasing and embracing diversity in our workforce to reflect the population demographics of our community.  Every person we serve and work with brings a unique blend of identities, including racial, ethnic, language, religious, ability, and many more.  Being inclusive means honoring our diverse cultures, identities and backgrounds as well as our differences and similarities.  It is a reminder that individual experiences make us who we are.  We are committed to honoring the differences each of our staff, residents, and visitors bring, because we value the strength that comes from our individual and collective uniqueness.

 

When we draw on the wisdom and experience of our community we serve, we are better able to meet the needs of our customers— the community. The City’s goal is to have a reflective workforce, an inclusive work environment, and an equitable organization and community that is committed to delivering effective, relevant, and responsive service while ensuring fairness, dignity and respect to our colleagues, residents, and visitors.

 

The City of Welch is an affirmative action/equal opportunity employer.  Individuals who can submit proof of their legal right work in the United States are eligible for hire.  We highly encourage women, people of color, and individuals with disabilities to apply.  If qualified applicants with a disability need assistance in completing the on-line application and/or reasonable accommodation in order to take any required examination, please request assistance and/or accommodations from Human Resources prior to the application deadline.

 

Passing a pre-employment background check, which may include a physical examination and drug screen, is required prior to employment. The City may use a third party service to conduct a background check. This vendor may include a credit report; however, the City does not intend to use the information gleaned from the credit report for employment decisions.  Nonetheless, a separate notice advising you of your rights under the Fair Credit Reporting Act will be sent to you prior to the procurement of any consumer credit report as part of this reporting process. In the event a consumer report is requested, the City will obtain prior written authorization from you.

​
