Fair Labor Standards Act Job Classifications. All employees are designated as either nonexempt or exempt under state and Federal wage and hour laws:
(a) Nonexempt employees are employees whose work is covered by the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). They are not exempt from the law's requirements concerning minimum wage and overtime.
(b) Exempt employees are generally executives, managers, professional, administrative or outside sales staff who are exempt from the minimum wage and overtime provisions of the FLSA. Exempt employees hold jobs that meet the standards and criteria established under the FLSA by the U.S. Department of Labor.
(c) All employees of the City of Geneva are presumed to serve in the unclassified civil service, unless the positions which they occupy have been specifically adopted into the classified civil service by ordinance or by operation of law. After the completion of the prescribed probationary period, classified employees may be disciplined only for cause.
(d) Employees who serve in the unclassified civil service serve at the pleasure of the City Manager. After completion of the prescribed probationary period, unclassified employees may be disciplined in accordance with this chapter.
