A. The Borough Mayor shall cause to be developed and implemented a formal system by which each Borough employee’s job performance is evaluated in accordance with the following schedule:
1. Probationary employees will be evaluated after completing three months of service; and again immediately prior to completion of the six-month probationary period.
2. After completion of probation, all regular employees will be evaluated annually.
a. Employees will advance to the next higher step on the salary schedule on July 1st of each year, subject to satisfactory performance as noted in a written performance evaluation, due on or before June 1st of each year. If the employee received “does not meet expectations” performance rating in any category, they shall not be eligible for a step increase. Specific examples are required in the performance evaluation if any category denotes “does not meet expectations.” Employees should not learn of deficiencies for the first time in an evaluation. If a supervisor fails to timely complete the required performance evaluation, the employee shall be eligible for the merit step.
3. All categories of employees (regular, term and casual) will be formally evaluated at the time of termination and rehire eligibility status documented.
B. All employees will be furnished their evaluations and allowed the uninhibited right to comment thereon. (Ord. 2015-34 § 8, 2015; Ord. 2006-70 § 6, 2006; Ord. 2003-58 § 11, 2003; Ord. 94-050 § 3, 1994; Ord. 84-102 § 2, 1985. 2004 Code § 2.24.261.)
