Employee Manual 2023 - Flipbook - Page 139
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT FORM
I hereby acknowledge by my signature below that I have received a copy of the City of Plymouth
employee manual and I agree to read and abide by the rules and regulations of the City as
described in this manual.
I understand the contents of the manual are not guaranteed conditions of employment but
provided for informational purposes only. The City reserves the right to modify, revoke, suspend,
terminate, or change any or all such plans, policies, benefits, or procedures, in whole or in part, at
any time with reasonable notice. It is understood that future changes in policies and procedures
will supersede or eliminate those found in the manual, and that employees will be notified of such
changes through normal communication channels. The language in the manual is not intended to
create, and is not to be construed to constitute, a contract between the City and any one or all its
employees. Employment can be terminated at any time at will by the City except when this right is
limited by the terms of a collective bargaining agreement. Only the city manager has the authority
to change the at-will nature of employment at the City and then only in a writing entitled
“Employment Agreement” and signed by the employee and the city manager or in a collective
bargaining agreement signed by the city manager and union authorities.
I agree that any action or suit against the City (or any of its employees, agents, management or
elected officials) relating to or arising out of my employment or the termination of employment,
including, but not limited to, claims arising under state or federal civil rights statutes, must be
brought within 180 days of the event giving rise to the claim or be forever barred. This applies to
the initial charge filed with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission; however thereafter I
am permitted to pursue litigation, if at all, as provided in the Commission’s “Right to Sue” letter. I
waive any longer, but not shorter, limitations periods to the contrary. This contractual limitations
period shall be enforced to the extent permitted by law and may be narrowed by a court as
necessary to make it enforceable.
