(A) The safety and welfare of the village’s citizens shall at all times be held as a central mission of government. All village employees are expected to represent the village to the public in a professional manner which is courteous, efficient and helpful. Employees must maintain a clean and neat appearance appropriate to their work assignment, as determined by their position and department head.
(B) Since the proper working relationship between employees and the public depends on each employee’s ongoing job performance, professional conduct and behavior, the village has established certain minimum standards of personal conduct. Among the village’s expectation are: basic tact and courtesy towards the public and fellow employees; adherence to village policies, procedures, safety rules and safe work practices; compliance with directions from supervisors; preserving and protecting the village’s equipment, grounds, facilities and resources; and providing orderly and cost-efficient services to its citizens.
