The probationary period may be extended by the City Manager for a period <br />not to exceed ninety (90) days, in order to further evaluate the performance of the <br />probationary employee. <br /> <br />21.4 Rejection of Probationary Employee - Original Appointment <br /> <br /> The City Manager may terminate a probationary employee during the probationary <br />period upon fifteen (15) days written notice without right of appeal in any manner by the <br />probationary employee. <br /> <br />21.5 Rejection of Probationary Employee - Promotional Appointment <br /> <br /> Any employee rejected during the probationary period following a promotional <br />appointment or at the conclusion of the probationary period shall be reinstated to a <br />position in the class from which the employee was promoted and at the rate of pay the <br />employee would have received had they remained in the former class. <br /> <br />Section 22. Promotion <br /> <br /> Promotional or open-promotional examinations may be conducted whenever in the <br />opinion of the Personnel Officer the needs of the service require. Only employees who <br />meet the requirements set forth in the examination announcements may compete in <br />promotional examinations. <br /> <br /> Insofar as consistent with the best interests of the service all vacancies in the competitive <br />service shall be filled by promotion from within the competitive service after a <br />promotional examination has been given and a promotional list established. <br /> <br /> Upon the establishment of a ranked eligibility list, the names of the persons having the <br />highest five (5) scores on the list shall be submitted to the department head for their <br />consideration. Should an eligibility list be established based upon the banding of test <br />scores, the names of the persons by band shall be submitted to the department head for <br />their consideration. <br /> <br /> When the needs of the service so require, an employee meeting the minimum <br />qualifications may be temporarily promoted to an authorized position on an "acting" <br />basis. While serving in the position the employee temporarily promoted shall be paid the <br />minimum rate of pay for the classification except that said rate of pay shall be no less <br />than five percent (5%) above the employee's normal rate of pay. <br /> <br />If, in the opinion of the Director of Human Resources and Labor Relations, a vacancy in <br />the position could be filled better by an open-competitive examination instead of <br />Page 106 of 200
