Code Number: 403.8
Employees are expected to perform their assigned jobs, respect and follow Board policies, and obey the law. In the event an employee is charged with child abuse, dependent adult abuse, or domestic abuse, they must notify the Director of Human Resources prior to reporting to work. If an employee is convicted of a crime (misdemeanor or felony) including child abuse, dependent adult abuse, or domestic abuse, the employee must notify the Director of Human Resources, within five (5) business days of the date of the conviction or disposition of the charges. Deferred judgments and deferred sentences are considered convictions under the terms of this policy.
If an employee is convicted of a crime (misdemeanor or felony) or receives the notification of the filing of any of the charges mentioned above during the summer months and the employee is not scheduled to be at work during that time period, then a notification to the Director of Human Resources must be made within five (5) business days of the date of the conviction or the date of the receipt by the employee of the notification of the charges mentioned above.
Employees whose duties require possession of a Commercial Driver’s License or who regularly operate District vehicles must report all driving-related charges and citations, including moving violations and speeding tickets to the Transportation Supervisor. Employees will be responsible for the payment of any related fine or penalty.
Information received under this policy shall be treated as confidential to the extent allowed by law and will be maintained as part of the employee’s personnel file.
Employees who do not notify the District as required by this policy will be subject to disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment.
