Caseworkers/Supervisors, Office Support and Others

DHS has many job opportunities for direct-service staff, such as caseworkers and case managers in child welfare, aging services and behavioral health and their supervisors; as well as administrative and office support staff. These jobs are filled through the PA State Civil Service Commission.
