Notification of Results: The City Administrator shall inform the candidates of the results of their examination. If a candidate is rejected for employment based on the results, he or she shall be notified of this determination and may request further explanation from the physician. 4.7 Employment of Minors General: Employment of minors will be limited to the ages and conditions as provided by the federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and, where more restrictive, State child labor laws. 4.8 Union Representation Labor Relations Act: Relations between the City and its organized Employees are guided by the Public Employment Labor Relations Act (PELRA) of 1971, as amended. A copy will be made available for Employees upon request. Joining a union is not required for employment. However, under the Act, the Union may require individuals in a represented bargaining unit who are not members of the Union to contribute a "fair share fee." 4.9 Probationary Appointments Purpose: The probationary period is an integral part of the selection process and shall be utilized for observing an Employee's work and for training the Employee in the work expectations, for assessing the Employee's abilities, skills, and interest, and for rejecting any Employee whose performance does not meet the required work standards. The first six (6) months of employment shall be considered an Employee's probationary period. Duration: Probationary periods apply to new hires, transfers, promotions and rehires. The Council, under special circumstances, may extend the probationary period up to a maximum of six (6) additional months. Termination during Probationary Appointment: The City Council, or the City Administrator with approval of the City Council, may terminate an Employee anytime, for any reason, during that Employee's probationary period. The Employee so terminated shall be notified in writing of the reasons for the termination and shall not have the right to appeal unless he or she is a veteran, in which case the procedure prescribed in Minnesota Statute ~197.46 shall be followed. Nothing in this Personnel Policy shall be construed to imply that after completion of the probationary period, an Employee has any vested interest or property right of City employment. Demotion: Employees terminated during a probationary period from a position to which they were transferred or promoted may be reinstated to a position in the class from which they were transferred or promoted, upon approval of the appointing authority. If a position in that class is not open, the Employee may be placed on leave of absence without pay until such time as an appropriate position is available. B
