A Longevity Bonus is paid in one lump sum within 60 days of the anniversary date on <br />which the Employee reaches the relevant milestone. Qualifying Employees who are <br />eligible for a Longevity Bonus will be invited to the next monthly Commission meeting <br />that is at least ten days after their anniversary date, where the Commission Chair and the <br />Employee’s manager will present the Longevity Bonus paycheck to the Employee(s). <br /> <br />Because longevity pay is considered supplemental income by the Internal Revenue Service, <br />22% will be withheld in taxes from the employee’s longevity pay during check processing. <br /> <br />35. PAYCHECK DEDUCTIONS <br /> <br />By law, the Utilities is required to withhold federal and state taxes, FICA and PERA from <br />an employee’s pay. The Utilities also has a Health Care Savings Plan with mandatory <br />participation and will withhold applicable amounts from an employee’s pay. In addition, <br />other deductions may be made upon authorization of a participating employee including <br />the following: <br /> <br /> a. Employee share of health insurance g. World Vision <br /> b. Credit Union h. United Way <br /> c. PERA life insurance <br /> d. 457 contributions <br /> e. Flexible benefits <br /> f. Computer Loans up to $1,200.00 (12 month term) <br /> <br /> <br />36. PAYCHECKS <br /> <br />Employees are paid every two weeks. The pay period begins every other Tuesday at 12:00 <br />a.m. and ends every other following Monday at 11:59 p.m. Payday is the Friday <br />immediately following the end of the pay period. <br /> <br />Employees are responsible for their paychecks upon receipt. Direct deposit is preferred <br />but a check is available to employees upon request. <br /> <br /> <br />37. NIGHTWORK REST TIME <br /> <br />The Utilities will provide a regular field worker with one hour paid rest time for each hour <br />worked between 10:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m., excluding work performed during such window <br />on Saturday or Sunday. The worker must make arrangements with his or her supervisor <br />before taking such rest time. This nightwork rest time shall be taken during the next <br />scheduled work shift. If the supervisor does not release the worker to take this nightwork <br />rest time, all hours worked by the worker on the next scheduled shift shall be paid at one <br />and one half times the worker’s base rate of pay. It is the employee’s responsibility to <br />notify the supervisor and obtain approval prior to taking the rest time. It is also the <br />employee’s responsibility to take the nightwork rest time if it is approved by the supervisor. <br />129
