• 0 It is the City's policy to consider it has a verbal agreement • with its employees by which they agree to perform the tasks and meet the responsibilities the job requires of them and to do so to the best of their ability. This booklet outlines the rules to which the employee agrees when accepting employment. The City agrees to pay the employee at the rate initially agreed upon at the time of hire plus other benefits and increases as the employee becomes eligible. The City will honor its part of the agreement and expects the employee to honor his without the necessity for discipline. Discipline will consist of verbal reviews if an employee breaks his portion of the agreement. In more serious cases, formal letters of notice will be written and entered into the employee's file. The City policy is to make every effort through its supervisory personnel to aid the employee in understanding and honoring their portion of the agreement. As a last resort, when it becomes apparent an employee cannot keep his side of the agreement, it is assumed the agreement is not workable and the employee is separated from the City. The following are some examples of offenses warranting corrective action and are not limited to only the infractions mentioned: Failure to report off work properly Repeated failure to properly fill out records Violation of City rules • Excessive tardiness or absenteeism Loafing; failure to perform work assigned within a reasonable time Doing personal work while on duty Leaving your job while on duty without permission of your supervisor Removal of City property from the premises without proper authorization In each instance of disciplinary action the reasons for the action will be discussed with you by your Supervisor or in the case of discharge by the Department Head. ANY EMPLOYEE WHO IS OFF WORK AND MISSES THREE SCHEDULED WORK DAYS WITHOUT CALLING IN TO REPORT OFF IN A PROPER MANNER IS CONSIDERED TO HAVE RESIGNED.
