About Personnel Policies

About the Personnel Policies and Practices Handbook

This handbook provides employees with a general understanding of Transition Projects, Inc., personnel policies. It supersedes any prior written or oral policies, statements or understandings on these subjects, with the exception of the Collective Bargaining Agreement. The purpose of the Handbook is to state the employment policies and procedures of Transition Projects (the Agency). It has been issued for informational purposes only and is not intended as a contract of employment or as a promise or guarantee of specific treatment in specific situations. The Agency retains both the right and the responsibility to interpret and apply its provisions.

This handbook cannot anticipate every situation or answer every question about employment. In order to retain necessary flexibility in the administration of policies and procedures, the Agency reserves the right to change or revise policies, procedures, and benefits described in this handbook, other than the employment-at-will provisions, upon due notice to affected employees and to the Union whenever the Agency determines that such action is warranted.

Employment at Transition Projects is “at will,” meaning that either the agency or the employee may terminate employment at any time, for any reason, except as provided by the Collective Bargaining Agreement for represented employees. This Handbook is not a contract of employment or a promise or guarantee of specific treatment in specific situations, nor can it anticipate every situation or answer every question.

Some of the provisions in this Handbook are required by federal and state laws and are subject to immediate change to comply with changes in those laws and regulations.

This Handbook applies to all employees and to all contractors who provide mission-related services on our premises. Where conflicts exist between this Handbook and the Collective Bargaining Agreement, the Collective Bargaining Agreement prevails for represented employees.
