Hearings

Hearings Employees will be provided written notice and opportunity for a hearing in case of any termination or disciplinary suspension without pay, and in case of lay-off or any other action that will have a substantial effect on their compensation. This does not include actions that are voluntary on the part of the employee, actions taken against probationary employees, or suspensions with pay for purposes of investigation or other non-disciplinary reasons. The written notice will include the action proposed, the reasons for taking the action, an explanation of the employee’s hearing rights, and the procedures and deadlines that should be followed in claiming those rights.
