STANDARDS OF CONDUCT AND PERFORMANCE

The Board staff members are expected to maintain work practices which reflect a commitment to excellence. This commitment should be demonstrated by job performance and compliance with professional standards as established by the policies and codes of ethics described in policies of this manual.

The Board staff work day shall comply with the requirements of state law. The executive director is authorized to establish the most effective work schedule for staff members.

Employee Work Schedules State law requires that all State offices be available to the public for services from 8:00 am until 5:00 pm, Monday through Friday.

To provide for maximum flexibility in scheduling employees, the Executive Director may develop modified flexible work schedules.

Diligence During Work Period All employees must apply themselves to their assigned duties during the full schedule for which compensation is being received, except for reasonable time provided to take care of personal needs.
