Reason for Recommended Action/Background

Staff proposes to amend the Personnel Rules and Regulations to allow three new special compensation codes for unrepresented employees. A draft of these changes is attached (Attachment A).

The proposed changes only apply to unrepresented employees. No new compensation will be provided to employees; rather, these changes are being made to ensure that previously provided employee compensation meets CalPERS’ pensionable requirements. The compensation codes being added are as follows:
  • Temporary Upgrade Pay: In order to reward employees willing to work in an upgraded position or classification, the County Administrator may adjust the salary of any unrepresented employee up to a maximum of ten percent (10%) of base salary.
     
  • POST Special Compensation: In order to reward unrepresented county peace officers for continued education, the following incentives are approved for the unrepresented classes of Chief District Attorney Investigator and Assistant Chief District Attorney Investigator: (1) seven and one half percent (7.5%) for possession of BA or POST Advanced Certificate; (2) five percent (5%) for possession of POST Supervisory Certificate; and (3) five percent (5%) for possession of POST Management Certificate. The maximum above base pay shall be limited to 15% under this section.
     
  • Notary Public Differential: Unrepresented employees who possess a Notary Public certificate and meet the criteria below may be designated to receive a five percent (5%) notary public differential. Employees may apply for notary public designation from the Human Resources department who will determine the extent to which the certificate is used for county business. 
    • The employee’s position does not require the use of a Notary Public certificate.
    • The employee has been asked to utilize his/her certificate for county business.
    • The employee obtained the certificate on his/her own time.
    • The employee obtained the certificate at his/her expense.
