Employee Conduct
Policies and Procedures Manual Section 9
General policy
蜜桃社区 Michigan University has established and, when appropriate, will modify or change certain rules and regulations regarding the conduct of University employees and the appropriate discipline for any violation. Such rules exist in accordance with all applicable laws, administrative codes, and any labor agreements the University has made with its employees.
Rules of conduct for employees are intended to promote the orderly and efficient operation of the University, as well as to protect the rights of all employees. Violations, therefore, shall be regarded as cause for disciplinary action.
These rules are published for employees' information and protection. Ignorance of work rules is not an acceptable excuse for violation. It is each employee's responsibility to know the rules and abide by them. These rules are not all-inclusive, and other departmental or University regulations may exist. Employees are expected to know and abide by these rules as well.
Disciplinary action is dependent upon the seriousness and/or frequency of the violation. Human Resources shall be consulted regarding consistency of rule interpretation and appropriateness of the penalties before disciplinary action is undertaken.
