A.
There is hereby established a personnel system for
the Township of Evesham. All positions of employment, except elected
positions and those positions appointed directly by the Township Council,
shall be subject to such rules, regulations and procedures herein
set forth and hereafter promulgated by the Township of Evesham. All
politically elected officials and those employment positions filled
by direct appointment of the Township of Evesham are exempt from the
provisions of this chapter.
B.
This chapter shall be read and interpreted in conjunction
with any applicable collective bargaining agreement. This chapter
shall be interpreted, whenever possible, to not be in conflict with
the provisions of any applicable collective bargaining agreement.
If a conflict does exist between this chapter and the provisions of
an applicable valid collective bargaining agreement, the provisions
of the collective bargaining agreement shall apply.
The responsibility for implementing this chapter
and for the general supervision of the personnel system is hereby
vested in the Township Manager.[1]
The Township Manager shall be responsible for
the following:
A.
Making recommendations to the Council with regard
to the classification of positions and compensation therefor, the
administration of the classification system and the rates of compensation
and inclusion of said recommendations each year in the budget recommendations
submitted to the Township Council.
B.
Establishing qualifications for all employment positions
prior to the creation thereof.
C.
The appointment, transfer, promotion, demotion, suspension,
dismissal or any such change in an employee's status.
D.
Making recommendations concerning measures calculated
to increase efficiency and to promote the interest and welfare of
employees.
E.
Devising necessary administrative procedures to execute
the policies of the Township Council.
F.
Administering such rules and regulations and procedures
as may be set forth by the Township Council.
G.
Recruiting, examining, investigating and determining
qualifications for all positions in the personnel system.
H.
Maintaining such personnel records as may be required.
The Township Council shall:
A.
Adopt rules for the regulation of personnel matters
in conformity with and in furtherance of this chapter.
B.
Approve, establish, modify or abolish all positions
or classes of positions, provided that in connection with the adoption
of the annual budget for the Township, the Township Council shall
approve all proposed positions.
C.
Approve, establish or modify all salary schedules
for classes of positions, provided that in connection with the adoption
of the annual budget for the Township, the Township Council shall
approve salary schedules.
A.
The Township Manager shall recommend classification
of all of the positions in the personnel system, assigning to each
the appropriate title, experience, capacity, knowledge, skill and
other qualifications, including the minimum prerequisites for appointments.
This classification plan shall be so developed and maintained that
all positions substantially similar with respect to duties, responsibilities
and authority over character of work are included within the same
class and that the same schedule of compensation can be made to apply
with equity under like working conditions to all positions within
the class. The classification plan so recommended shall be transmitted
to the Township Council for adoption.
B.
The Township Manager may recommend the reclassification
of positions from time to time. Every position in the personnel system
shall be allocated to one of the classes, and thereafter the position
title and class so established shall be used in all personnel, fiscal
and other documents and correspondence of the Township.
A.
The Township Manager shall, when necessary, make recommendations
to the Township Council for changes in base and maximum salaries for
each class of position in the personnel system as established by the
initial schedule to be adopted by the Township Council. Provision
shall be made for annual in-grade salary increases for each class
of position until the maximum salary is attained; provided, however,
that prior to the granting of any in-grade salary increase the supervisor
of the employee concerned must certify to the Township Manager that
the employee has performed his duties satisfactorily for the preceding
year, or in the case of probational appointees, from the date of appointment,
except as otherwise provided herein.
(1)
An in-grade salary increase may be granted to new
appointees after completion of a sixty-day probationary service if
the Township Manager determines that the quality of performance is
satisfactory.
[Amended 12-20-1983 by Ord. No. 51-12-83]
(2)
If an employee is promoted, his anniversary date becomes
the date of promotion and a probationary period will follow as for
a new employee. If his position is reclassified to a higher grade,
the employee's increment date and probationary period remain as originally
established.
(3)
No employee who is promoted or whose position is reclassified
to a higher grade shall receive a salary or wage lower than that which
he received prior to his promotion or reclassification of his position.
An incumbent employee in a position which is reclassified upward will
be paid on the basis of the next highest step of the grade into which
the position has been reclassified. In the event an employee is demoted
or reassigned to a lower grade, the Township Manager shall have the
authority to place him in any step of the grade in which his new position
is classified.
B.
No employee in the personnel system shall be paid
a salary less than the established minimum nor greater than the maximum
rates fixed in the compensation plan for the position he holds.
C.
Employees required to travel and/or use personal conveyances
on official business for the Township shall be reimbursed for all
reasonable expenses for food, lodging and transportation as may have
been incurred while on such official business of the Township, except
that reimbursement for the use of personal conveyances shall be at
such rate or rates as may be set forth by the Mayor and Council.
D.
Those employees whom the Township Manager has assigned
a vehicle shall use said vehicle for business purposes only. The heads
of departments shall ensure all Township vehicles are properly marked
with decals (except certain police vehicles).
[Added 12-7-1993 by Ord. No. 61-12-93[1]]
[1]
Editor's Note: This ordinance also renumbered former Subsections D and E as Subsections E and F. Ordinance No. 51-12-83, adopted 12-20-1983, had repealed original Subsection D, Compensation for employees required to work shift work, renumbered original Subsections E and F as D and E and repealed former Subsection G, which provided for outstanding service increments.
E.
The Township Manager and heads of departments shall
be ineligible for compensatory leave time as the nature of these positions
dictate flexibility in working hours. However, compensation requisite
to the high responsibilities and peculiar demands of said positions
shall be reflected in the rates of compensation. The Township Manager,
at his discretion, may grant reasonable leave to compensate for excessive
working hours required.
F.
The compensation plan shall take effect by adoption
of an ordinance of the Township by the Township Council.
[Amended 12-20-1983 by Ord. No. 51-12-83; 9-6-1988 by Ord. No. 43-9-88; 12-7-1993 by Ord. No. 61-12-93]
A.
In the event that a vacancy occurs in any position
established under the personnel system, the Township Manager shall
first ascertain whether any employee in the personnel system is sufficiently
qualified and willing to accept promotion or reassignment. Should
the Township Manager determine that no member of the personnel system
meets such criteria, he shall seek applicants from outside the service
by advertisement.
B.
Appointment from without the system.
(1)
All applicants for employment shall be required to
furnish, on forms provided by the Township, complete information as
to education, special training, experience and skills, as well as
a chronological statement of previous employment, together with references.
(2)
The Township Manager shall make or cause to be made
such investigation as is necessary to verify the facts contained in
the application and shall conduct such oral interviews as he may deem
necessary. The Township Manager may conduct such tests and examinations
as he may deem necessary to determine the qualifications of the applicants
for the position.
(3)
All appointments shall be made on the basis of merit
only and without regard to race, creed, sex, sexual orientation, age
or disability.
[Amended 8-6-1996 by Ord. No. 39-8-96]
C.
All appointments to positions made from within or
without the organization shall be subject to a six-month probationary
period. During this period, the appointee's performance shall be closely
reviewed to determine his/her ability to carry out his/her assigned
tasks, his/her efficiency and other characteristics relative to the
requirements of the position. Such a review shall be conducted by
the appointee's immediate supervisor and by the Township Manager.
If the Township Manager determines that the probational appointee
is not satisfactory, release of the appointee from the position may
be made.
D.
Regular appointment. Upon satisfactory completion
of the six-month probationary period, each appointee shall be granted
a regular appointment in the personnel system. In each case, the Township
Manager shall include in the appointee's personnel file a statement
evaluating the employee's performance during the probationary period.
In the event that the Township Manager is unable to make a determination
as to whether an employee shall be granted a regular appointment at
the end of the six-month probationary period, the Township Manager
may extend the employee's probation for a further six-month period.
E.
Temporary appointments. Whenever the Township Manager
determines that, because of heavy workloads, special projects or for
other similar reasons, it is of advantage to the Township, he may,
within the limits set forth in the budget, make appointments on a
temporary basis. Temporary appointments shall not be granted regular
appointment status in the personnel system, except upon probational
appointment, and any time spent as a temporary appointee shall not
be credited toward the probationary period.
F.
Demotions. Where the action or performance of an employee
does not warrant dismissal or where the nature of the work required
of the employee warrants such action, the Township Manager may reduce
an employee to an established position in a lower grade or class.
G.
Resignations. An employee resigning his position shall,
whenever possible, give at least two weeks' notice in writing. Whenever
the date of departure falls between established pay periods, the employee
may be paid on the date of the next consecutive payday for the time
worked.
H.
Reemployment of former employees. In the event a former
employee of the Township is reemployed within one year from the date
of termination of his employment, the Township Manager may, at his
discretion, reinstate the employee in his former grade and credit
him with his prior service with the Township of Evesham.

dismissal, demotion or resignation from position, was repealed 12-7-1993
by Ord. No. 61-12-93.
A.
Leave of absence without pay. The Township Manager
may grant requests for leave of absence without pay for periods not
to exceed one year, when such leave is for a valid purpose and when
it appears that reinstatement of the employee would be in the best
interest of the Township. There will be no accumulation of employee
benefits during a leave of absence without pay.

of any United States Military Reserve or National Guard unit and is
