Attention Township Assessors - Adopt Your Personnel Rules
Congratulations to all of our township
assessor friends who were installed into office recently.
Please be reminded
that, under Section 2-65 of the Illinois Township Code, every township assessor
with 5 or more deputies and other employees must adopt rules concerning all
benefits available to employees and file them with the township clerk.
Generally, this is accomplished through the adoption of a personnel policy
manual. The rules must include, at a minimum, the following benefits to
the extent they are applicable: insurance coverage, compensation, overtime pay,
compensatory time off, holidays, vacations, sick leave, and maternity leave. You should also make sure that any prior rules that you have adopted
comply with the provisions of the Affordable Care Act. In addition, if
you have union employees, you may have certain bargaining obligations related
to the rule changes.
The rules must be adopted and filed with the
township clerk within 4 months after the assessor takes office. Multi-township
assessors must file the rules with the clerk of each township in their
district. If you amend the rules at all, you must also file the
amendments with the appropriate township clerk or clerks by their effective
date.
