       modified, revised, and updated in January 2004. These policies have been developed

       to provide operating guidelines for personnel management/staff  ( see Attachment #

       and economically sound organization for the primary benefit of the clients and

       communities which they serve.  They also provide fair and equal opportunity to all      

       qualified individuals to enter InterTribal employment on the basis of demonstrated

       advancement and tenure which will make InterTribal attractive as a career and en-

       courage each employee to render his/her best performance to InterTribal;  maintain a

       uniform plan of evaluation and pay based upon the relative duties and responsibilities
