All village employees can expect fair and impartial treatment from supervisors or employees with oversight authority. As such, no full-time employee shall hold a position in which he or she supervises, checks, or audits the work of another employee within the employee’s immediate family (as defined in § 35.136) or with whom the employee has had, or is having, a dating relationship. If any such relationship exists or arises, the village will either transfer one of the employees to a vacant position for which the employee is qualified, or will terminate the employment of one of the employees.

(A) Discretion in style of dress is very important to the village. Employees are often the village’s representatives in dealing with the public. Office employees are to dress in business casual attire. On Fridays, jeans may be worn with a business casual appropriate shirt. Jeans must not be ripped or “distressed.” Employees arriving at work in inappropriate attire due to a violation of the above restrictions or because the clothing items are too revealing will be required to change their clothing and will not be paid for the time required to do so.
(B) Employees are required to dress in attire safe and appropriate for their positions. Clothing worn by employees must not be torn, must meet safety requirements, and must not contain inappropriate language or graphics.
(C) In some cases, employees may be provided uniforms to wear. Uniforms or work clothes bearing the village’s name shall not be worn outside of village work hours except for purposes of traveling to and from work or during municipal meetings and/or functions.
