City of Elk=' Request for Action River To Item Number Mayor and City Council 8.5 Agenda Section Meeting Date Prepared by General Business December 16, 2013 Lauren Wipper, Human Resource Representative Item Description Reviewed by 2014 Compensation Plan for Non-Organized Calvin Portner, City Administrator Employees Reviewed by Action Requested Adopt by resolution the 2014 Compensation Plan for Non-Organized Employees. Background/Discussion Attached is the 2014 Compensation Plan for Non-Organized Employees. There are a few changes included in this document, some of which have been approved, are in practice, and are now getting formalized in this document, and some that are altogether new. The changes that have already been approved through separate action or with the budget include: • Two percent pay increase—This is reflected in item number one and in the Pay Plan on the final page of the document. It is also reflected in the Paid On-Call Firefighter, Part-time Cablecaster, Police Reserve, and Part-time Liquor Store Clerk wages as well. • On December 17, 2012, the Council approved a change to the personnel policy manual to provide a premium pay rate for liquor store employees who perform floor refinishing or inventory on a Sunday. This is being moved to the Compensation Plan rather than having it in the Personnel Manual. • In May of 2002, the Council approved premium pay for snowplow operators working on a Saturday or Sunday. This has been in practice and is now being incorporated into this document. • November 13, 2001, an Officer In Charge premium pay was approved. Again, this had been in practice and is now being incorporated into this document. • The Flexible Benefits Plan contribution was discussed in an earlier budget work session. Because the city experienced a large premium increase this year,the plan design is utilizing all of the budgeted funds available and the remaining funds from the Early Retiree Reinvestment Program grant that were received in 2011 to offset costs to employees. The plan includes a slight change to the pay rates for Ice Arena Cashier and Ice Arena Concessions. Also adjusted is the requirement for the Assistant Skating Academy Director and the Off Ice Time Pay associated with that position. These have no direct impact on the budget as the wages for these programs are budgeted in total and the program works within that budget. Two new items are included in the attached document that staff would like you to discuss and consider. If Council chooses not to include the changes, the motion should reflect the deletion of one or both items. The items are as follows: P a w E R E U 6 Y NaA f RE]
