The Borough of Dumont is committed to providing equal
opportunity in all aspects of employment, including recruitment, hiring,
assignment, training, compensation, benefits, promotion, transfer
and termination. All conscientious employee complaints must be made
in writing so as to insure the proper investigation of each complaint.
The Borough of Dumont is committed to a work environment free from
discrimination and harassment. Race, color, creed, religion, national
origin, alienage or citizenship status, age, sex, sexual orientation,
marital status, disability, veteran status or any other protected
status does not affect our decision about your employment or the terms
of your employment.
If you believe that you are the subject of discrimination
or harassment, you should speak to the Borough Administrator. If discrimination,
harassment, or employment-related concerns are found, the Borough
of Dumont will take prompt, appropriate measures to remedy the problem
and prevent its recurrence. Under the policy, all complaints are taken
seriously and all forms of retaliation are prohibited.
The Borough of Dumont protects conscientious employees
from retaliation. To properly investigate all such complaints, they
must be in writing.
The starting time, break times, and close of
business may vary by department and by location. Your supervisor will
explain normal working hours and advise you if there are any changes
to normal work times.
Most of the people working for the Borough of Dumont
are responsible and professional performing their jobs in a way that
meets expectations and contributes to the Municipality's success.
Unfortunately, occasionally an employee does not meet these standards,
in which case, corrective action may be taken.
In general, the Borough of Dumont may take corrective
action because of an employee's unsatisfactory job performance, attendance
record, lateness, conduct, failure to adhere to policies and procedures,
or other reasons that affect our business or our work environment.
Workplace sexual harassment and discrimination create
physical and emotional anxiety, obstruct effective communication,
and result in diminished productivity. To maintain the environment
of excellence that we have created, we will reinforce our nonsexual
harassment and nondiscrimination policy through continuing employee
communications and management/supervisory training. If you have any
questions, please contact the Borough Administrator's Office.
