Personnel Policy- The Kaikohe East Board's Personnel Policy is part of the board's Operations Policy and is published on the school website.
- It is restated here for board members' convenience:
PersonnelThe board delegates responsibility to the principal all matters relating to the management of staff. Therefore the principal may not fail to:
- Ensure that personnel policies and procedures comply with current employment legislation
- Ensure that staff are managed in a sound, fair, and respectful manner in accordance with the terms of their current employment agreements
- Ensure that all employees’ rights to personal dignity, safety and access to an approved and fair internal grievance process are maintained
- Take reasonable steps to protect staff from unsafe or unhealthy working conditions
- Ensure that all required staff are registered or have a current Limited Authority to Teach
- Ensure that all staff have an annual performance appraisal
- Provide a smoke free environment
- Provide Protective Disclosure protection
Principal's Interpretation- My interpretation of the board's requirements in this area is that the board wants to be assured that it is acting as a good employer and meeting all its obligations to its employees.
Data to Verify that the Policy Interpretation is Being Fulfilled- The Personnel section of the online staff handbook contains procedures that are developed in consultation with staff to ensure that the board's requirements are met.
- All staff were given the opportunity to respond to a survey of their perceptions of whether or not the principal is meeting the requirements of the policy.
