Common use of REMOVAL OF DEROGATORY MATERIAL Clause in Contracts

REMOVAL OF DEROGATORY MATERIAL. No materials derogatory of the employee’s conduct, service, character or personality, shall be placed in the employee’s personnel file unless the employee has opportunity to read them. The employee shall acknowledge having read the material by affixing his or her signature to the actual copy to be filed. Such signature shall not signify that the employee agrees with the content of the material. If the employee refuses to sign the document, the administrator may note that fact on the document. Derogatory materials from the employee's personnel file shall be removed three (3) calendar years after the material is placed in the file except those materials which are disallowed from removal by State law or statute. The employee's annual evaluation shall be exempt from this provision. This provision shall not be construed to prohibit the District from maintaining records of investigations or discipline in files other than the employee’s personnel file, nor shall this provision be construed as a limitation on matters which may be considered by the District or an arbitrator in determining the appropriate level of discipline for an act of employee misconduct.
