COORDINATION WITH PRIVATE CONTRACTORS POLICY

The School Board has the authority to contract with private companies to perform work previously performed solely by Board employees. Some of these contracts may require the company to provide all employees needed to perform the work covered by the contract. However, some of the contracts may require that the work be performed solely by Board employees, or by Board employees working with employees of the private company.

When the Board has contracted with a private company to perform work, and the contract includes a provision for some or all of the work to be performed by Board employees, it is the policy of the Board that the Board employees performing that work are required to follow the work rules, safety rules, work schedules, employee handbook, supervision, and other work-related conditions made by the private company, unless those conditions are contrary to any other policy of the Board.

An employee's failure to comply with the previous section shall be a violation of Board policy and shall subject the employee to appropriate disciplinary action.

Nothing in this policy is intended to deprive employees of any rights, including their statutory rights under Alabama law, to a hearing, to an opportunity to present evidence, or to an appeal of disciplinary action taken by the Board or its representatives.
