An extension or reduction of the probationary period shall be based on the employee's <br /> performance. <br /> 8.4 Regular Appointment <br /> At the end of the probationary period, if the Fire Chief desires to make a regular appointment of the <br /> probationary employee, he/she shall file with the Human Resources Director a written statement to the <br /> effect that the employee's services are satisfactory. If the employee's services are not satisfactory, the Fire <br /> Chief shall file a written statement rejecting the probationer, or requesting an extension as defined in <br /> Section 8.3. <br /> 8.5 Rejection of Probationer <br /> During the probationary period an employee may be rejected by the Fire Chief and terminated by the <br /> appointing authority without the right of review of any kind. Any employee rejected during the probationary <br /> period following promotion shall be reinstated to the position from which he/she was promoted, unless <br /> charges are filed and he/she is duly discharged. <br /> ARTICLE 9 <br /> PROMOTION <br /> 9.1 Examination <br /> In the event the City desires to fill a vacancy by promotion, the Human Resources Director shall prepare and <br /> administer an examination for those employees holding similar positions in lower classes. <br /> Promotional examinations scheduled by the City during an employee's regular working hours may be taken <br /> without any loss in compensation. <br /> 9.2 Eligibility List <br /> After each examination has been scored and rated, the names of successful candidates shall be recorded <br /> on an eligibility list in the order of their standing on the examination. Eligibility lists shall continue in effect <br /> one (1) year after establishment. They may be extended for a period of not to exceed one (1) year or <br /> abolished before the expiration of the yearly period by the Human Resources Director upon <br /> recommendation of the Fire Chief. The name of any employee on an eligibility list may be removed by the <br /> Human Resources Director: if the eligible employee requests in writing that his/her name be removed; if <br /> he/she fails to respond to a written offer of employment within five (5) business days after the mailing of <br /> notice; if a subsequent report of a character investigation is unsatisfactory; or if he/she has been rejected for <br /> appointment three (3) times, by the Fire Chief. <br /> Each employee on an eligibility list shall have the right to waive two (2) successive offers of employment <br /> without affecting his/her standing on the eligibility list. However, after the third offer of employment has <br /> been waived, the employee's name shall be removed from the eligibility list. <br /> � <br />
