Agenda Item

Discuss, consider and take appropriate action on approving a new concept to provide departments with long term staffing support while current employees are on approved leave under the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA).

Background

The proposal is to provide duplicate positions in Non-Departmental to mirror the current employee’s job. Position would be held for current employee on leave, and they would reinstate upon their return. While they are on leave, offices could hire and fill the original slot and notify them of their employment status in a way similar to grant funding. This would only be for long term absences, defined as more than 6 months.  Shorter absences would be covered in office or with the possibility of temporary funding. If the concept is approved to move forward with, there is a current long term need for positions filled in two offices. There would be no funding attached at this time for the two new positions. However, at the start of our County fiscal year, 15 days shall be paid to all members on leave. During the budget process, we would budget these amounts for your approval.
