Holiday Overtime Pay
Under existing personnel policies applicable to the Police
Unit, the City pays overtime to unit members who work on
Police Unit holidays at the rate of 2 1/2 times the member's
regular hourly rate of pay ("holiday overtime pay"). This
rate of pay is not required by federal law and is subject to
restrictions negotiated between the City and the Unit. Each
holiday is the 24-hour period that the City has approved for
Police Unit holidays.
The maximum for holiday overtime pay for Police Officers and
Sergeants of 12 hours per holiday and for Dispatchers of
10 hours per holiday is now eliminated. All Unit members will
now receive holiday overtime pay for all hours in which they
work during the "24-hour holiday period", from midnight to
midnight on the City recognized holiday. Unit members not
working the holiday will continue to receive 8 hours of
holiday pay at straight time.
For "half-day holidays" such as Christmas Eve and New Year's
Eve, all Unit members will now receive holiday overtime pay
for half of their scheduled shift up to a maximum of six (6)
hours. The calculation of holiday overtime hours for these
half-day holidays will also be based on the hours worked
during the "24-hour holiday period," from midnight to midnight
on the City recognized holiday. Unit members not working the
half-day holiday will receive 4 hours of holiday pay at
straight time.
3. Salary_ Supplement
The Salary Supplement is now eliminated for all Unit members.
4. Section 125 Plan
The City will implement a Section 125 (Cafeteria) Plan for its
employees, effective March, 1998.
5. Continuation
The City and the Unit agree that all conditions of employment
established by City policy, including all conditions affecting
wages, hours, and working conditions that are not specifically
addressed in this Memorandum of Understanding shall continue
in effect and shall not be affected by the terms of this
Memorandum of Understanding.
.
The value or availability of the benefits provided in the
Memorandum of Understanding as originally worded or as amended
from time to time may depend on their tax treatment by the
state or federal government or the decisions of other
government agencies or departments, such as, but not limited
to, the Public Employees Retirement System. The City will
endeavor to obtain the most favorable treatment legally
possible from these other governmental entities. However, the
City makes no representation concerning the value of such
benefits to unit members or how they will be taxed or
otherwise treated by other agencies or departments. The
City's obligations under this Memorandum of Understanding are
limited to the direct cost of providing the salary and
benefits as described in the Memorandum of Understanding. The
City shall have no additional financial obligation, even if
the tax or other treatment of such salary or benefits by other
agencies or departments reduces or eliminates their value to
the employee.
This Memorandum of Understanding is ratified and adopted
pursuant to the recommendations of the following
representatives this ~~ day of January, 1998.
