0 WORKING HOURS <br />Because of its nature, the City work never stops. Certain <br />facilities must be available every hour of the day, every day of <br />the year. This requires that many departments be covered at all <br />times, and employees may be expected and scheduled to work eve- <br />nings, nights, holidays, weekends and in cases of emergency to <br />work in areas and departments other than the one to which he is <br />regularly assigned. <br />However, we try to follow a schedule of work and time off. <br />Certain emergencies may necessitate extra work. You will receive <br />pay for overtime worked, according to the Fair Labor Standards Act. <br />TRANSFERS AND PROMOTIONS <br />If an employee desires a change in position to some other <br />department, he should first discuss the matter with his Department <br />Head, who in turn will consult the Head of the Department to which <br />the employee wishes to change. Final arrangements will be made <br />through the Personnel Director, with the Administrator's approval. <br />An employee who transfers by his request to a new position <br />must understand the following agreement on the terms of the <br />transfer: <br />(1) A 90-day probationary period will be served in the new <br />position. <br />. (2) If the Supervisor and/or employee is not satisfied in <br />any way during the 90-day probationary period, the em- <br />ployee may ask for a transfer back to his old position, <br />providing it has not been filled and the Department Head <br />approved the transfer back; otherwise, the employee may <br />be terminated. <br />(3) During this probationary period the employee shall con- <br />tinue to receive all City benefits. <br />Employees who are qualified to fill vacancies are encouraged <br />to do so when it would mean a promotion. Otherwise, transfers are <br />discouraged, especially since time and money have been spent in <br />training for the original position. <br />• <br />
