Chapter 50 Personnel Policies and Procedures
[HISTORY: Adopted by the Township Council of the Township of Jackson 12-26-2006 by Ord. No. 32-06 (Ch. 28). Amendments noted where applicable.]
Ethics — See Ch. 26.
The Township Council of the Township of Jackson has adopted and enacted a Personnel Policies and Procedures Manual and an employee handbook. The Personnel Policies and Procedures Manual applies to all officials, appointees, employees, volunteers and independent contractors. The Policies and Procedures Manual is not a contract and is intended to provide guidelines covering public service by Township employees. The manual shall be kept on file in the Township Clerk's office for inspection and review by all employees of the Township, as well as the general public, during normal business hours.
The Township Council of the Township of Jackson reserves the right to rescind or revise, without notice, and at the sole discretion of the governing body, any policies and provisions of the manual. In the event there is a conflict between the manual and any collective bargaining agreement, personnel services contract, federal law or state law, the terms and conditions of that contract or law shall prevail.
Appointment. All officers and employees appointed to positions of classified service under Title 11 of the New Jersey statutes for the Township shall be bona fide residents of the Township of Jackson. A "bona fide resident," for the purposes of this section, is a person having a permanent domicile within the Township, and one which has not been adopted with the intention of again taking up or claiming a previous residence acquired outside of the Township.
Eligibility of applicants for positions and employments in the classified service of the Township. The Township Council hereby limits the eligibility of applicants for positions and employments in the classified service of the Township to bona fide residents, except as otherwise provided herein or by law.
Whenever the Township Council shall, by resolution, determine that there cannot be recruited a sufficient number of qualified residents for available specific positions or employments, the Township shall advertise for other qualified applicants, who shall be classified as follows:
Specific positions and employments requiring special talents or skills; filling without reference to residency. Whenever the Township Council shall determine, by resolution, that there are certain specific positions or employments requiring special talents or skills which are necessary for the operations of the Township and which are not likely to be found among the residents of the Township, such positions or employments so determined shall be filled without reference to residency. Any such resolution shall set forth in detail the reasons upon which such a determination is made.
[Added 7-8-2014 by Ord. No. 11-14]
As of September 1, 2014, mandatory direct deposit of net pay is established for all employees of the Township of Jackson, including any person holding public office, position, or employment whose compensation is paid by the Township of Jackson.
