Approval of the Employees Acting on Roswell's Needs (EARN) Program Policy.
Presented by Kay Love, City Administrator
Body
Item Summary:
The EARN Program was created by the Compass Group. The Compass Group is a leadership group made up of the best and brightest staff members from each city department. Those selected for the group have been identified as leaders who have a positive influence, demonstrate character, and who bring innovation to the work place. The group meets monthly with the City Administrator to discuss specific topics and to share ideas and exchange information.
The EARN Program encourages employees to identify cost saving possibilities, provides employees with incentives, and increases efficiency in City services. The main goal is to develop innovations that ultimately lead to greater performance either in a reduction in City expenses or a reduction in time needed to perform job duties. As an incentive program, employees who submit ideas that meet all program requirements and that create measurable returns will receive compensation in return.
