Frazer

<div><div>Are you impatient with inefficiency but relentless about getting things right once you know the subject inside and out? Do you demand accuracy and call people out when they&rsquo;re even slightly off in their facts or details? When you&rsquo;re tasked with new research, do you chase down the facts until you have absolute proof? Are you so skeptical that you won&rsquo;t believe it until you&rsquo;ve seen the source yourself? Do people sometimes get frustrated with your &ldquo;prove it&rdquo; mindset&mdash;but secretly rely on you because they know you&rsquo;ll get it right? Is your communication style straight to the point&mdash;more factual and informative than social? Do you hate being wrong and do everything possible to make sure your work is bulletproof? Is &ldquo;better safe than sorry&rdquo; second nature for you? Do you like being the go-to expert, the person everyone knows has the right answer? Do you often feel it&rsquo;s faster to just do the work yourself because you&rsquo;ll get it done correctly the first time?</div><br>

What You Get Beyond Your Paycheck</b></div>

When you join the State of Texas, your monthly paycheck is just one part of your real income. Our benefits provide extra value that many private employers simply don&rsquo;t match&mdash;often adding hundreds of dollars each month to what you take home or save.</div><br>

Here&rsquo;s what you get as a full-time employee:</div>
<ul>
<li><b>100% paid health insurance</b> for you, and 50% paid for eligible family members&mdash;saving you hundreds every month in out-of-pocket medical costs</li>
<li><b>Retirement plans</b> with lifetime monthly payments after five years of state service, plus options to save even more with 401(k) and 457 plans</li>
<li><b>Paid vacation, holidays, and sick leave</b> so you can recharge and take care of life outside work (that&rsquo;s time off you&rsquo;re actually paid for)</li>
<li><b>Optional dental, vision, and life insurance</b>&mdash;at rates much lower than most private plans</li>
<li><b>Flexible spending accounts</b> for added tax savings on health and dependent care</li>
<li><b>Employee discounts</b> on things like gym memberships, electronics, and entertainment</li></ul><br>

A CPI investigation includes interviewing and gathering information to see if abuse or neglect happened and if intervention is necessary. The investigator considers both risk and safety issues and may recommend services for the child and family to reduce the risk of further abuse or neglect.</div>
