1. IMPORTANT NOTICE ABOUT THIS HANDBOOK This Employee Handbook sets forth general policies of the Elk River Municipal Utilities (the "Utilities") and is intended to help you get to know the Utilities and your responsibilities. The Handbook applies to all Utilities employees. The Utilities Commission shall, in accordance with its statutory responsibility to manage the Utilities, be responsible for the maintenance and periodic revision of personnel policies, the Utilities' personnel program, and this Handbook. The Utilities is committed to complying with all applicable law. If it comes to the attention of the Utilities that any provision of this Handbook is inconsistent with applicable law, the Utilities will comply with applicable law. Each employee of the Utilities is responsible to become and remain informed about the employment policies and practices of the Utilities and to abide by the rules, regulations, standards and policies of the Utilities, including those contained in this Handbook. This Handbook is designed to answer basic questions about the Utilities' employment policies and procedures and to serve as a resource when you may need information. This Handbook cannot cover every situation, and the Utilities reserves the right to interpret and apply this Handbook and to address each situation as it determines appropriate. If you have any questions about the information in this Handbook, or if the Handbook does not appear to address your concern, please contact your immediate supervisor, another Utilities manager, or the Utilities' Human Resources Representative. (The Utilities has arranged with the City of Elk River for Human Resources services. The Utilities' Human Resources Representative can be found in the City of Elk River's Human Resources Department.) No employee has a protected property interest in his or her employment with the Utilities, and nothing in or about this Handbook creates a contract of employment for any particular duration between the Utilities and any Employee. Violation of the Utilities' rules, regulations, policies, standards or practices is just cause for discipline, up to and including termination of employment. PERSONNEL RECORDS Certain personnel records are required by law, and others are needed for the Utilities benefits and administrative purposes. Please be sure that all personal information in your file is accurate and up-to-date. If your personal information changes, please let Human Resources know. 1 September 2018 69
