ESSENTIAL DUTIES

Job descriptions are designed and intended only to summarize the essential duties, responsibilities, qualifications, and requirements

for the purpose of clarifying the general nature and scope of a position's role as part of the overall organization. Job descriptions do

not list all tasks an employee might be expected to perform and they do not limit the right of the employer/supervisor to assign

additional tasks or otherwise to modify duties to be performed - even if seemingly unrelated to the basic job. Every employee

has a duty to perform all assigned tasks. (An employee who is assigned a duty or task believed to be unlawful should report the

assignment to the Human Resources Director.) It should also be noted the order of performance responsibilities as listed in the job

description is not designed or intended to rank the duties in any order of importance relative to each other.

In filling a vacant position, preferred or required credentials regarding education, training, experience, and other bona fide

occupational qualifications may be established. The credentials shown in this job description may be interpreted only as the minimum

criteria existing at the time the description was developed. Other bona fide occupational qualifications and criteria may be utilized as
