The intent of this Handbook is to summarize many of the personnel policies, rules and regulations and to define certain benefits afforded to eligible employees.  All Village Departments/Divisions and their respective personnel shall refer to this Handbook unless otherwise provided for in a binding contract or agreement between the Village of Mount Prospect and a recognized group of employees or collective bargaining agreements (CBA), the Rules and Regulations of the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners, the Statutes of the State of Illinois or the Municipal Code of the Village.  

Benefits summarized in this Handbook will be defined to the extent the issue is not covered in any CBA or other agreement authorized by the Village Administration.  Be reminded that our benefit programs are under periodic review and therefore employees are encouraged to speak with Human Resources to obtain information about the full details and eligibility requirements of any Village fringe, insurance or other benefit program.  

The Village reserves the right to alter, revise, modify, deviate, delete or abolish any policy, rule or regulation prescribed herein if deemed necessary by the Village Manager in order to ensure the effective administration of the Village.
