Employee Relations & Personnel Procedures

3.4 Employee Relations and Personnel Procedures

Management and employees work toward the same goal. That goal is to bring efficient and economical library services to the citizens. This can only be achieved by management-employee cooperation.

It shall be the duty of each employee to maintain high standards of conduct, cooperation, efficiency and economy in their work. Whenever work habits, appearance, attitudes, production or personal conduct of any employee falls below desirable standard, supervisors should point the deficiencies at the time they are observed.

Regular attendance as scheduled and performing tasks as assigned are essential job functions on all job descriptions as a condition of employment.

Employees are required to notify the director and their immediate supervisor of any change of address or telephone number so that the employee may be contacted at all times.

The director should keep a complete file of qualifications, date of employment, raises in salary and date of termination for each employee.

Administrative assistant will maintain staff vacation and sick leave files.

No employee shall disclose any confidential information concerning library business. No confidential library business should be discussed on personal social media sites

Employees and current trustees may purchase books or audio-visual materials through LDRL at the library discount rate. Library volunteers may be extended this benefit at the director’s discretion. Friends of the Moberly Public Library and Paris Dulany Library Friends upon payment of membership dues may purchase one book or audio-visual selection at the library discount rate for that item within that membership year.

Employees will be evaluated on an annual basis or as necessary. Immediate supervisors will evaluate their staff. Copies of the evaluation will be given to the director to be filed in the employee’s permanent files.

Employees with an unsatisfactory evaluation may be given probationary status and terminations policies will be followed. (See. 3.10)
