Members of the City Council discussed the possibility of installing a large plaque in the <br />entry way at City Hall to recognize staff members for their years of service to the City; <br />. An application form and selection criteria was created for the money or time savings idea <br />portion of the policy; <br />. A definition was inserted into the employee recognition policy defining employee <br />retirement status; <br />. A policy was added that identifies different gift certificate amounts for retiring employees <br />based upon their years of service. <br /> <br />City staff has reviewed a number of employee recognition policies that have been utilized by <br />other communities. Department heads believe that this policy recognizes City staff in a fair an <br />equitable manner in the following manner: <br />. Exceptional Employee Job Related Performance; <br />. Years of Service to the City; <br />. Money or Time Saving Ideas; <br />. Employee Retirements. <br /> <br />The proposed policy would implement an annual cmployee luncheon that would be used to <br />recognize employee contributions, retirees, years of service, and exceptional job performances <br />over the past year. The annual employee luncheon would be scheduled for January of each year <br />and would be budgeted for on an annual basis. <br /> <br />An employee of the year would be announced at the employee luncheon. The purpose of this <br />policy is to recognize an employee that is deserving of a special recognition due their <br />accomplishments and contributions to the City over the past year. <br /> <br />\\Earth\Admin\Assistant City AdministratoTlMemo's and LetreTs\2005\Employee Recognition Policy 6-20-05.DOC <br />
