(1) All town employees are expected to represent the town to the public in a professional manner which is courteous, efficient and helpful. Employees must maintain a clean and neat appearance appropriate to their work assignment, as determined by their position and their supervisor.

(2) Since the proper working relationship between employees and the town depends on each employee’s ongoing job performance, professional conduct and behavior, the town has established certain minimum standards of personal conduct. Among the town’s expectations are: basic tact and courtesy towards the public and fellow employees; adherence to town policies, procedures, safety rules and safe work practices; compliance with directions from supervisors; preserving and protecting the town’s equipment, grounds, facilities and resources; and providing orderly and cost efficient services to its citizens.

(3) Town employees may not at any time make personal purchases using the town of Cathlamet corporate credit card. There shall be no exceptions to this policy. Additionally, the town will not make personal purchases for employees, whether purchased locally, by catalog purchase, by Internet purchase, or through any town suppliers.

(4) Peddling or soliciting for sale or donation of any kind on town property or during working hours is not allowed without the express written consent of the mayor. (Ord. 518 § 2, 2009)
