Human Resources

Ferndale's Human Resources Department maintains a strong mission to attract, develop, and retain a diverse, well-qualified, and professional workforce that is reflective of the community's high standards of service. In addition to employment, HR provides service and consultation in the areas of benefit administration, employee and labor relations, education, and training. 

Racial Equity Statement

The City of Ferndale is intentional about creating equity in everything we do. We believe in leading with racial equity—working with our residents, elected officials, visitors, employees, and other stakeholders to realize this goal. We strive to be a welcoming, inclusive community in which racial identity and other characteristics that have been used to create inequity are no longer a factor in how people enjoy and achieve success.
