<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />" " <br /> <br />[DISCUSSION DRAFT] <br /> <br />INTRODUCTION <br /> <br />This policy manual contains personnel policies and procedures for City of Elk River (the "City") <br />employees. <br /> <br />The City strives to provide an efficient system of personnel administration for its employees. <br />This policy manual serves as a guide for administrative actions concerning City personnel <br />matters and is provided for informational purposes only. It is not a contract between the City and <br />any of its employees. Although we have attempted to cover matters that generally apply to <br />employees, this policy manual does not cover every situation that may arise from day to day. <br /> <br />Other than any applicable collective bargaining agreement, this policy manual replaces and <br />supersedes any and all prior manuals, memos and any other written or oral statements of <br />employment policies and procedures. <br /> <br />Except as provided by statute or applicable collective bargaining agreement, employment of all <br />City employees is at-will. This means that the employee has the right to terminate his or her <br />employment at any time, with or without cause or notice, and that the City has that same right. <br /> <br />No representative of the City has the authority to alter the at-will nature of an employee's <br />employment except the City Council by approval of a written contract of employment executed <br />by the [City Administrator?] and the employee. No employee has a protectable <br />property interest in their employment with the City. <br /> <br />The policies in this manual shall apply to all City employees unless specifically exempted <br />by the City Council. Consultants rendering professional services on a fee basis are not <br />considered City employees. <br /> <br />The City may add to, modify or revise portions of this manual as the City deems appropriate, <br />with or without prior notice. <br /> <br />This manual may be superseded to the extent that it is inconsistent with state or federal statute, a <br />collective bargaining agreement entered between the City and its employees, or a written contract <br />of employment signed by the [City Administrator?] and an employee and approved <br />by the City Council. <br /> <br />1 <br />
