Any employee who intends to resign from City employment in good
standing shall give his or her department head reasonable advance
notice thereof which in no event shall consist of less than two weeks'
advance notice, exclusive of vacation days.
Any employee who does not submit a resignation in compliance
with the provisions of this article, or who is absent from work for
a period of three or more days or who fails to return to work within
three days after the expiration of an authorized lease, without notifying
his or her department head of the reason therefor and of the employee's
intention to return to work (unless it shall not have been possible
to provide such notice) may be considered as having resigned without
notice and not in good standing.
An employee who leaves City employment without having resigned
in good standing as hereinabove provided shall have such fact entered
in his or her personnel record and may be denied the opportunity of
future employment by the City and may be denied a satisfactory reference
from the City.
It shall be the policy of the City to consider with favor the
application of a former employee who resigned in good standing and
whose work record during such former employment was satisfactory.
