the employee and supervisor. Acl�nowledgement of the performance appraisal document by the <br />employee recognizes that the review has been discussed with the supenrisor and does not necessarily <br />constitute agreement Failure to acl�nowledge the document by the employee will not delay processing. <br />Employees do not have the right to change or grieve their performance appraisal but may submit a <br />written response which will be included in the employee's profile. <br />Attendance <br />Every employee has an important role in maintaining a productive workplace. Therefore, it is essential <br />that all employees report to work every day as scheduled. Unsatisfactory attendance, including reporting <br />late to work and leaving work early may result in disciplinary action up to and including discharge. <br />If an employee must be absent from work for any reason, other than approved time off, s/he must notify <br />his/her immediate supervisor at least thirty (30) minutes prior to the start of his/her normal working <br />hours. If an emergency prevents the employee from notifying his/her supervisor at such time, the <br />employee must call his/her immediate supervisor as soon as possible during the workday. <br />Rest/Meal Break <br />Non-exempt, full-time employees shall receive a paid rest break not to exceed fifteen (15) minutes away <br />from job duties on one occasion during each four (4) hour work shift. Part-time employees shall receive a <br />paid rest break not to exceed fifteen (15) minutes during a work period of four hours. <br />Rest breaks cannot exceed fifteen (15) minutes, including the time required to get to and from a rest <br />break area. <br />All employees scheduled to work eight (8) or more hours per shift are required to take a half-hour, <br />unpaid meal break. <br />Employees of Northbound and Westbound Liquor are required to stay "on dun-" in the building and be <br />reachable by other employees should their assistance be required during their break. In consideration of <br />this, Northbound and Westbound Liquor employees are paid during their break time. <br />Employees may not purposely miss rest breaks in order to accumulate time to leave early at the end of <br />the day; all rest breaks and meal breaks must be taken. <br />Employment of Relatives <br />All employees are hired as the most qualified candidate based on qualifications, skills, and ability. <br />Employment is not restricted to more than one member of a family (including spouse, children, parents, <br />siblings, in-laws, or other immediate relative). No family member will be hired where: <br />■ One family member would have the authority or practical power to supervise, appoint, remove, <br />or discipline the other. <br />■ One family member would be responsible for auditing the work of the other. <br />■ Circumstances e�st which would place the family member in a situation of actual or reasonably <br />foreseeable conflict between the city's interests and their own. <br />■ The family member has a relative employed by an organization with whom the city has business <br />dealings and in the city's judgment the position and job responsibilities of both the employee and <br />family member would create an appearance of improper influence or favor or would jeopardize <br />the confidentiality of data maintained by the city. <br />Page 12�66 <br />
