I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br /> RECEIVE AND CONSIDER <br />DRAFT CODE OF CONDUCT FOR CITY EMPLOYEES <br /> <br />By: Linda Waite Smith, Administrative Services Manager <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />Since last year the Labor Management Committee has discussed issues of workplace <br />environment and interactions. At its April meeting, the LMC drafted a code of conduct <br />that the members are forwarding for consideration. <br /> <br />The City has "Work Rules" but they are general in nature. Because peoples' <br />interpretations vary widely, it is difficult to address what some people perceive as <br />inappropriate workplace speech or behavior. The code of conduct, if approved, would <br />become part of the Work Rules. <br /> <br />The core of the code of conduct was taken from the Police Policy Manual which is much <br />more detailed than the general Work Rules. The draft code of conduct has been <br />forwarded to the attorney who handles our personnel issues for review and comment. <br /> <br />Committee Action: <br /> <br />1. Review the proposed code of conduct. <br /> <br />2. Revise the code of conduct as necessary. <br /> <br />3. Recommend to City Council that the revised draft code of conduct be distributed to all <br />affected parties for review. <br /> <br />4. Recommend to City Council that staff summarize suggestions of affected parties for <br />review and action by the Personnel Committee at a subsequent meeting. <br /> <br />Reviewed by: <br />City Administrator <br />Administrative Services Manager <br /> <br />Copies also distributed to: <br />Police Chief <br />Finance Officer <br />City Engineer <br />Personnel Attorney <br /> <br />PC: 5/13/97 <br /> <br />lindas\codeofcon\case <br /> <br /> <br />
