• EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY POLICY
This is to affirm The City of Rochester's policy of providing equal opportunity to all
employees and applicants for employment in accordance with all applicable Equal
Employment Opportunity laws, directives and regulations of Federal, State and Local
governing bodies or agencies thereof.
Our organization will not discriminate against or harass any employee or applicant for
employment because of race, color, creed, religion, national origin, sex, sexual
orientation, disability, age, marital status, or status with regard to public assistance.
Steps will be taken to ensure that employment practices are free of discrimination.
Such employment practices include, but are not limited to, the following: hiring,
upgrading, demotion, transfer, recruitment or recruitment advertising, selection, layoff,
disciplinary action, termination, rates of pay or other forms of compensation, and
selection for training, including apprenticeship. Reasonable accommodation will be
provided to applicants and employees with disabilities.
The City of Rochester will evaluate the performance of its management and supervisory
personnel on the basis of their involvement in achieving these objectives as well as
other established criteria. In addition, all other employees are expected to perform their
job responsibilities in a manner that supports equal employment opportunity for all.
The City has designated the Director of Human Resources to monitor all Equal
Employment Opportunity activities. If any employee or applicant for employment
believes he or she has been treated in a way that violates this policy, they should
contact the Human Resource Director at (507) 328-2555. Responsible parties will
investigate allegations of discrimination or harassment as confidentially and promptly as
possible, and we will take appropriate action in response to these investigations.
