RESOLUTION (ID#2562) DOC ID: 2562
CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO—REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION
Information/Report
From: Allen Parker M/CC Meeting Date: 06/17/2013
Prepared by: Linda Wynn, (909) 384-5161
Dept: Human Resources Ward(s): All
Subject:
Resolution of the Mayor and Common Council of the City of San Bernardino Modifying the
Terms and Conditions of Employment with Respect to Carry-Over Holiday Hours for General
Unit Employees, Represented by the International Union of Operating Engineers (Iuoe). (#2562)
Current Business Registration Certificate: Not Applicable
Financial Impact:
There is no financial impact to the City.
Motion: Adopt the Resolution.
Synopsis of Previous Council Action:
No previous Council Action.
Background:
The current provisions for the carry over of Holiday hours for General Unit employees is capped
at 40 hours per fiscal year; any holiday hours over 40 that are unused by June 30th are forfeited.
As a result of the City's current financial situation, many departments are short-staffed and
employees are occasionally denied leave time, which could result in their losing banked holiday
time that is accrued over the current 40 hour cap.
As part of the City Team's and International Union of Operating Engineers' (IUOE) ongoing
discussions to establish a comprehensive memorandum of understanding (MOU), IUOE has
requested the City to consider increasing the amount of banked Holiday hours that Unit members
can carry over per fiscal year from 40 hours to 96 hours. This increase will have no impact on the
cash-out cap for separating employees. As such, the unfunded liability in this area would not
change.
Human Resources is in support of this increase through June 30, 2014, due to the reason stated
above, as well as the fact that in January 2013 Unit employees came to agreement on all of the
requested economic concessions. A comprehensive MOU is currently being initiated and will
soon be presented to the Mayor and Common Council for approval.
