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 This manual may be superseded to the extent that it is inconsistent with state or federal statute, a collective bargaining agreement entered between the city and its employees, or a written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