Town board urges employees to report incidents to supervisors immediately
Summary
Board members noted miscues in some departments where employees failed to notify supervisors about incidents and reaffirmed a directive that employees must call their immediate supervisor as soon as an incident occurs.
The Town of Richland Board used its Jan. 15 meeting to reiterate expectations for internal incident reporting after identifying that some departments had not consistently notified supervisors. The minutes record the directive: "As soon as something happens the employee is to call their supervisor immediately." The Board said it wants to "fix" miscues and keep departments aligned on reporting procedures.
No disciplinary or formal enforcement steps were recorded in the minutes; the action was framed as a directive and request for compliance. The Board asked departments to follow the clarified reporting protocol and indicated follow-up would come through supervisors and department heads.
