Section VIII - General Information
Use of City Property
Use of city property is limited exclusively to city business-related purposes. Personal use of city property or equipment is prohibited. However, limited and incidental personal use of certain types of equipment such as telephones and personal computers is permitted and must be reimbursed at cost immediately upon receipt of an invoice.
Communications
The Human Resources Department’s Communications Division, the city’s corporate employee communications office, publishes three award-winning employee newsletters, annual and as-needed publications, and e-mail bulletins. The newsletters are the online “Extra Milers,” which features employees who have been recognized by citizens in letters, e-mails, and phone calls; “Benefits Pulse,” which helps you develop better health habits, understand your benefits and become better health-care consumers; and “City Savvy,” which keeps you abreast of city workplace issues.
Financial Disclosure
Executive-level employees are required to sign an executive-level acknowledgement form regarding their employment status, as well as to submit an annual financial disclosure statement. Refer to Chapter 18, “Ethics and Financial Disclosure” of the Code of Ordinances found at www.houstontx.gov/codes/.
