Court employees are encouraged
to participate in professional activities and associations,
and especially to take advantage of internal and external
educational programs to improve their personal and professional
skills. The laws and rules under which the courts operate
are continually changing as a result of legislative
actions, higher court decisions, and evolving values
and technologies. Courts and their employees must perform
efficiently despite this constant state of flux. Professional
development may include attending classes, doing outside
reading, participating in professional organizations,
and soliciting ideas and information from others both
during and after the workday. Court managers at all
levels of the court system should initiate and encourage
attendance of employees at training programs.
Personnel Rule:
Rule 9.05 C (3) b authorizes discipline of employees for “just cause.”
Glossary of Terms in Personnel Rules for the definitions of “just cause”:
3: performing assigned duties in an inefficient, incompetent or negligent manner;
4: failing or refusing to perform job requirements satisfactorily.
