Supervisors are responsible for informing employees of University
policies and procedures and for developing departmental policies
and procedures. In addition, supervisors are to inform employees
when they violate a department work rule to ensure that the action
is not repeated. Work rules cover employee conduct, dress code,
and use of University equipment and supplies. Every employee is
expected to maintain established work hours and to avoid being absent
or tardy. Employees are also expected to respect the University's
substance abuse and smoking policies. Supervisors should communicate
these policies and procedures and take steps to ensure that their
employees are aware of what constitutes proper behavior. In addition,
supervisors should make sure that their employees exhibit the professional
standards of conduct described below.
