REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION <br /> 4/27 /98 <br /> ITEM NO E-1 <br /> 0 1P <br /> Depa ent Approval: Manager Reviewed: Agenda section: <br /> 71--1-1 q-14- Organizational Business <br /> Item Description: Elimination of One-time Vacation Credit. <br /> BACKGROUND <br /> in December of 1985, the City Council adopted a resolution that provides a one-time <br /> credit of twenty personal leave days after three years of service for individuals in the <br /> Management Plan. We are proposing that this provision be eliminated for new hires. <br /> With this change, the vacation policy would be consistent for both compensation plans. <br /> When warranted, vacation adjustments could still be included for selected positions as a <br /> part of the job offer. <br /> ALTERNATIVES <br /> Continue the current policy. <br /> POLICY OBJECTIVES <br /> The City has continuously worked towards a bereft package that is equitable across all <br /> employee groups. The vacation credit is one the few remaining inequities remaining <br /> between our benefit plans. <br /> FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS <br /> This proposal reduces the city's overall vacation liability. The actual dollar amount <br /> varies depending on the number of employees receiving the vacation credit, and <br /> p � <br /> whether or not employees use vacation time or are cashed out at the end of their <br /> tenure. <br /> STAFF-RECOMMENDATIONS <br /> Staff recommends the elimination of this provision. <br /> COUNCIL ACTION REQ EsTED <br /> Motion eliminating the ore-time vacation credit of 20 days after 3 years of service for <br /> new hires in the Exempt plan, <br />
