As a part of the city's Emergency Management Plan, each department uses the Tier System to designate essential and non-essential employees in an emergency, It is important to know your Tier designation to know when to report to work. Confirm your Tier designation with your supervisor.
To clarify, all personnel are important and essential, even if they fall into the "non-essential" designation. Employees who are not First Responders or in a Primary Support Staff role can be utilized for other support duties
- TIER I – First Responders and all personnel needed for the continued operation of critical functions that are identified in Continuity Annexes.
- TIER II – Primary Support Staff: This category includes all personnel (such as staff, administrative, managers, etc.) without immediate, specific emergency roles but who may be necessary to execute duties for the department under certain circumstances.
- TIER III – Relief: Personnel with this category will be utilized on a need basis per expertise and skills and may be assigned to duties that may not be in the normal course and scope of duties, but may be assigned by the Department Director or designee to report to an alternate work location with the City domain. They are required to work once the emergency is over and directed to do so. All employees must use their best judgment as to when they return to work when conditions are safe or otherwise direct.
