The District has not updated their employee handbook nor personnel policies since 2012 even though numerous changes have been made by the Board as documented in the District's meeting minutes. Management?s Progress for Resolution: The District has created an employee handbook, but it has not been completed or approved. Criteria: NMSA 1978 Section 6-6-3 requires that every local public body keep all books, records, and accounts in their respective offices in the form prescribed by the local government division. The District's purpose for their personnel policy is to ensure equal employment opportunity with the District and to outline procedures for action in case of violation. Effect: The District is not in compliance with NMSA 1978 Section 6-6-3 and is lacking controls over their employee handbook and personnel policies. Cause: The District does not have adequate controls over their employee handbook and personnel policies. Auditor?s Recommendation: The District should update and amend their employee handbook and personnel policies to include all changes as approved by the Board and to include all future changes as amendments documented within the policies.
