1. The new HR manual was released in October 2019 with promise we'd receive training on it. When can we expect training to begin?

Yes, we had planned to begin training on the new HR Policy Manual. However, due to the restrictions from COVID19, we have been unable to present any trainings at this time. When the restrictions allow groups of 50 or more people, we will begin training. Until that time, if employees have specific questions regarding a policy, we will be happy to help.

3. Why can't we have a program implemented for employees with 30 years of service to be given a gold ring or a gold watch to show the employees that the city cares about it's employees?

The City is honored to recognize all employees with milestone years of service.  Currently, the City recognizes these employees with gold lapel pins.  These service pins are given for 5 years to 30 years of dedicated City service.  Employees with 35 years of service or more are presented with a special token, such as a medallion.  These are presented by the Mayor at a monthly Mayoral Employee Recognition Event.  All City employees (and their family and friends) are encouraged to attend this event.  Upon retirement, employees with 20+ years of service are recognized with plaque and a retirement gift offered in the City's retirement gift brochure.  Among these gifts are an engraved watch or money clip, and $100 gift cards to various establishments around Pensacola.
