1. Individual position descriptions shall be reduced to writing and delineate the duties currently assigned to an employee’s position. A dated copy of the position description shall be given to the employee upon assuming the position and at such time the position description is amended. The individual position description shall be subject to at least an annual review with the employee and any changes shall be developed by the employee and his/her supervisor. Nothing contained herein shall comprise the right or responsibility of the Executive Director to assign work consistent with the parameters of the position description.

2. When an employee makes a written request to his/her supervisor for a work plan, the supervisor and the employee shall mutually develop such a work plan within a reasonable period of time. Each work plan shall delineate job requirements, expectations or objectives requested by either the employee or the supervisor.

3. Whenever there is a substantial increase in work load or a directive issued by the Cabinet that could cause the employee to substantially deviate from the previously agreed upon work plan, the employee may initiate and the supervisor shall mutually develop an adjustment of the work plan to set priorities which allow the employee to carry out the work plan, the promotions of the work plan that the supervisor and employee have agreed on shall become the mutually developed work plan. The supervisor then shall discuss the problem areas with the employee, reduce the discussion to writing with a copy to the employee and notify the employee the full work plan is in force, and allow the employee time for corrective action.
