City of Arden Hills Personnel Policy Effective February 29,2016 <br />FUNERAL LEAVE <br />Employees will be permitted to use up to three (3) consecutive working days, with pay, as <br />funeral leave upon the death of an immediate family member. This paid leave will not be <br />deducted from the employee's PTO balance. <br />The actual amount of time off, and funeral leave approved, will be determined by the <br />supervisor or City Administrator depending on individual circumstances (such as the <br />closeness of the relative, arrangements to be made, distance to the funeral, etc.). <br />ELECTIONS/TIME OFF TO VOTE <br />An employee selected to serve as an election judge pursuant to Minnesota law, will be <br />allowed time off without pay for purposes of serving as an election judge, provided that <br />the employee gives the City at least ten (10) days written notice. <br />All employees eligible to vote at a State general election, at an election to fill a vacancy in <br />the office of United States Senator or Representative, or in a Presidential primary, will be <br />allowed time off with pay to vote on the election day. Employees wanting to take <br />advantage of such leave are required to work with their supervisors to avoid coverage <br />issues. <br />JURY DUTY <br />Full-time and benefit earning employees will be granted paid leaves of absence for required <br />jury duty. Time spent on jury duty will not be counted as time worked for computing <br />overtime. <br />Employees excused or released from jury duty during their regular working hours will <br />report to their regular work duties as soon as reasonably possible or will take accrued <br />Personal Time Off(PTO) to make up the difference. <br />Employees are to notify their supervisor as soon as possible after receiving notice to report <br />for jury duty. The employee will be responsible for ensuring that a report of time spent on <br />jury duty and pay for is completed by the Clerk of Court so the City will be able to <br />determine the amount of compensation due for the period involved. <br />Temporary and seasonal employees are generally not eligible for compensation for <br />absences due to jury duty, but can take leave without pay subject to department head <br />approval. However, if a temporary or seasonal employee is classified as exempt, he/she <br />will receive compensation for the jury duty time. <br />COURT APPEARANCES <br />47
