What Do You Really Know About Who You Work For? 

 

You work here, maybe even live in the County. You've been around for maybe a month? a year?; 15 years?; how about 20-plus years? 

In that time you've driven to work---did your job---then turned around and drove back home; seen co-workers--department heads--(maybe even a commissioner) come and go; developed some friendships along the way (or not); had some good times and bad; been paid every two weeks; loyally took your breaks and lunch; received an annual performance review (maybe); received a longevity bonus (maybe); experienced all four seasons (sometimes in a day--this is Ohio!); seen gas prices steadily increase; took time off for vacation--holidays--personal day (provided, of course, if you were eligible); and on, and on, and on.  

So with all your comings-and-goings, how much do you  really, really, know about the County you work for?  Who are its elected officials?  What agencies do they head?

What about those employment policies somebody handed you on a CD:  How much vacation do you accrue after 5 years, 10 years, 20 years (or do you)? How many sick days do you get a year? Do you get a longevity payment and, if so, how much? Do part time employees get sick time?

OK, now try these: What does "nepotisim" mean?  What does all this alphabet soup mean to you: FMLA, EAP, ADA, LOA, MMO, PERS, SPBR, SERB, JFS, CSEA, 457?  Are you a classified or non-classified employee?  What is civil service? Can flip-flops be worn in the summer? Are you permitted to campaign by distributing political material, or by making speeches on behalf of a candidate for partisan elective office?

In the spirit of fun and just for the shear personal curiosity of how much you do know, have a try at these questions. We'll try to change 'em as time goes on just to keep you on your toes. As a hint: if you don't have a clue, click on the Employment Manual link on the left side of the screen from which the majority of questions originate.
