Introduction <br />This policy manual contains personnel policies and procedures for Cit�- of Ell� River employees. <br />The city strives to provide an efficient system of personnel administration and this policy manual serves <br />as a guide for administrative actions concerning cit�- personnel matters. It is not a contract between the <br />city and its employees. The manual attempts to cover general matters and does not cover every situation <br />that may arise. <br />Other than any applicable collective bargaining agreement, this policy manual replaces and supersedes all <br />prior manuals, memos, and any other written or oral statements of employment policies and procedures. <br />Manuals and policies that provide department specific information remain in effect. <br />Except as provided by statute or applicable collective bargaining agreement, employment of all city <br />employees is at-will. At-will means both the cit�- and its employees have the right to terminate <br />employment at any time, with or without cause or notice. <br />No representative of the city has the authorit�r to alter the at-will nature of an employee's employment <br />except the City Council by approval of a written contract of employment executed by the city. No <br />employee has a protectable property interest in his or her employment with the cit�r. <br />The policies in this manual shall apply to all employees unless specifically exempted by the City Council. <br />Consultants rendering professional services on a fee basis are not considered city employees. <br />The city may add to, modify, or revise portions of this manual as the city deems appropriate, with or <br />without prior notice. <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This manual may be superseded to the extent that it is inconsistent with state or federal statute, a 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 of <br />employment signed by the city. <br />Page I �66 <br />
