Town of Princeton

G. Exit interview

All employees leaving Town employment for any reason will have an Exit Interview comprised of the completion of an Exit Questionnaire (sample on page 25) and a meeting with their Department Head or the Town Administrator. The purpose of the meeting is to be sure you are provided with important information concerning various benefits to which you are entitled and to provide the Town with any information it will need. The completed questionnaire will not become a part of your personnel file but will be used for informational and feedback purposes only.

Section 12. Snow/heat/severe weather policy

In the event of a snowstorm or other severe weather, employees may either utilize paid vacation or personal time should circumstances prevent them from coming to work.

Under certain circumstances, the Town Administrator may decide either to declare a delayed start to the work day or to release employees prior to the end of their normal workday. Under such circumstances, employees will be paid for their regularly scheduled hours of work for that day. Employees who are on a vacation or have taken a personal day, are out sick or who were not scheduled to work on such a day will not be credited for those hours during which working employees were released.

In the rare case of a full day shutdown due to inclement weather, employees are expected to work on Friday of that week. If an employee cannot come to work on that Friday, the employee will not be compensated for the shut down day unless the employee opts to take the day as a personal or vacation day.

Employees of the Princeton Library are governed by a separate policy adopted by the Trustees of the Goodnow Memorial Building. (See Appendix E)
