TITLE:

Consideration and Adoption of Ordinance No. 2020-09:  An ordinance of the City Council of the City of Flagstaff, Arizona, amending the Flagstaff City Code, Chapter 1-14, Personnel System, by amending the Employee Handbook of Regulations relating to General Definitions, Working Hours and Pay, Overtime Pay, Compensatory Time, and Vacation Leave; providing for penalties; repeal of conflicting ordinances; severability; and establishing an effective date

STAFF RECOMMENDED ACTION:

ITEM HAS BEEN PULLED INDEFINITELY

Executive Summary:

Management Services and Fire Division Leadership have agreed to implement a 12-day work period (versus the standard 14-day pay period) to better accommodate the scheduling and pay practices for Fire suppression staff.  The desired results are to make it easier for Fire suppression staff to interpret their paycheck stubs and reduce onerous manual timekeeping for managing pay practices. Several policies in the Employee Handbook of Regulations need to be modified to reflect this change.

Financial Impact:

While, these policy changes should have minimum financial impacts, these changes help ensure employees are properly and accurately compensated for their work.

Policy Impact:

These policy recommendations will not impact any other City policies.

Connection to Council Goal, Regional Plan, CAAP, and/or Strategic Plan:

The policy recommendation may impact the attraction and retention of City personnel related to the Council Goal - Personnel.

Has There Been Previous Council Decision on This:

No
