Other: For City Council members to review: Per City when describing work experience, “Generally, internships, seasonal jobs, and temporary part-time (TPT) positions with the City -as well as internships and volunteer work outside the City- are not included”. How is that ethical or correct in any capacity? Paid labor whether seasonal or part time is just that - labor, work, experience. This notion clearly shows bias towards those with the privilege and advantage of not having to work part time to attain degrees, certifications, etc. in order to finally attain a full time role. How is one supposed to gain experience if the means of getting experience - internship, part time, or otherwise- is not counted as such? This seems like a very biased internal policy decision and means of discounting experience for employees accross the board. This should be highlighted and inquired about in the upcoming council meeting, regardless of outcome for the legislation to be read (no one wants to hold back employees even further).
