• Mandated Pay Equity Report due (every 3 years) <br /> • Timekeeping software review,purchase and implementation <br /> • Mandated healthcare benefit changes (Affordable Healthcare Act) <br /> • Implementation of opt-out option for cafeteria plan <br /> • Union negotiations <br /> In order to catch up on the HR workload, staff requests a temporary increase of work hours for the <br /> payroll clerk,Denise Keller,to assist HR. Ms. Keller has an HR background and relevant 4-yr degree. <br /> She currently works a regular schedule of 40 hours on payroll week and 24 hours on the off week and is <br /> considered a 32-hour per week employee. She also works 40 hours per week during year-end closing <br /> periods,which is coming to a close. <br /> In the staff reorganization plan,it was hoped that the implementation of the timekeeping software would <br /> eventually free up some time from payroll. With the backlog of work in HR, the purchase and timeline <br /> for implementation has been pushed back. <br /> The added hours would be temporary,until HR is caught up or upon completion of the implementation <br /> of the new timekeeping software. <br /> FINANCIAL IMPACT <br /> The maximum cost for Ms. Keller to work 40-hours each week until year end would be an additional cost <br /> of approx. $12,000 in pay and benefits, an additional 328 hours over the course of the year. It is intended <br /> that this position would return to its regular schedule as soon as we can. <br /> The city has experienced budgeted savings for personnel costs with unexpected departures and the delay <br /> in new hiring. There is money budgeted that will be unspent beyond the 0.5% attrition decrease added to <br /> the 2013 budget. <br /> ATTACHMENTS <br /> None <br /> N:\Public Bodies\City Council\Council RCA\Agenda Packet\03-11-2013\HR assistnace from payroll.docx <br />
