Commissioners approve exception to separation policy for retiring employee
Summary
Klamath County commissioners approved an exception to the county's separation-of-employment policy to honor a previously scheduled retirement date for an employee who could not be physically present on their last day due to an unplanned family emergency; finance staff said there is no fiscal impact.
The Klamath County Board of Commissioners voted at its Sept. 3 work session to allow a departing employee to keep a planned retirement date of Sept. 5, 2025, despite being unable to be physically present on the final scheduled day because of an unplanned family emergency.
The request was presented by county finance staff on behalf of Finance Director Vicky Knoll. Under current county policy, an employee is required to be present on their last day of employment; the department asked for an exception because the employee had sufficient paid time off to cover the final three days but could not be at the office in person.
Commissioners approved the requested exception by voice vote. County staff said there is no fiscal impact.
