INTRODUCTION This policy manual contains personnel policies and procedures for City of Elk River (the "City") employees. The City strives to provide an efficient system of personnel administration for its employees. This policy manual serves as a guide for administrative actions concerning City personnel matters and is provided for informational purposes only. It is not a contract between the City and any of its employees. Although we have attempted to cover matters that generally apply to employees, this policy manual does not cover every situation that may arise from day to day. Other than any applicable collective bargaining agreement, this policy manual replaces and supersedes any and all prior manuals, memos and any other written or oral statements of employment policies and procedures. Except as provided by statute or applicable collective bargaining agreement, employment of all City employees is at-will. This means that the employee has the right to terminate his or her employment at any time, with or without cause or notice, and that the City has that same right. 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 City 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 This manual may be superseded to the extent that it is inconsistent with state or federal statute, a collective bargaining agreement entered between the City and its employees, or a written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.
