Job descriptions or position analyses shall not be used to limit the scope of work. Rather a willingness to assist other employees and the public shall be the responsibility of every employee (within the limits of ability and expertise). Each employee shall devote his/her whole time and attention to the services of the City and is expressly prohibited from engaging in other duties while at work. Employees shall not use narcotics or hallucinogens except as prescribed in treatment by a physician. Employees shall not appear for work or be at work while under the influence of drugs or alcohol. The proper use of telephone communication is required. Employees shall answer the telephone with a pleasant voice and respond politely to the caller. Personal telephone calls must be brief. Frequent use of the telephone for other than City business is prohibited. City Property All employees are responsible for the safekeeping and proper care of all property used by them and belonging to the City. Property shall be used for official purposes and in the capacity for which it is intended. Employees shall immediately report damaged or lost City property to their supervisor. The supervisor shall also be notified of any defects or hazardous conditions existing in any City property or equipment. Supervision Employees shall promptly obey any lawful instruction or order of their supervisor. This will include orders relayed from a supervisor by another employee. Should there be a conflict between instructions, the employee should promptly and respectfully call attention to the conflict and if the supervisor does not change their instruction to resolve the conflict, the last instruction received shall stand. Violation of Rules Employees shall not commit any acts or omit any acts, which constitute a violation of any of the rules, regulations, directives, orders, or policies of the City of Ramsey whether stated in this document or elsewhere. Ignorance of the rules shall not be considered as justification for any such violations. Employees shall be responsible for their own actions and they shall not shift the burden of responsibility to others for executing or failing to execute a lawful instruction or order. Violation of any rules, regulations, directives, orders, or policies may be reason for disciplinary action. Discipline The City of Ramsey will discipline employees for just cause only. The seriousness and or frequency of misconduct will be factors in determining whether discharge or some other disciplinary action is warranted. Discipline will be in one or more of the following forms: • Oral reprimand • Written reprimand • Suspension • Demotion • Discharge Resignation If you should choose to resign from your position with the City of Ramsey, we would appreciate a two-week notice given to your supervisor. 6
