Title
Human Resources Policy L-8, Military Leave (B)
Summary
This item is to amend HR Policy L-8, to remove the annual renewal of Military Leave benefits.
Explanation
Human Resources Policy L-8, Military Leave, is amended to extend the previously ratified supplement to an employee’s military pay by an amount not to exceed the employee’s regular base pay, (i.e., no overtime, certification pay, educational incentive pay or special duty pay, etc.), for those employees called to active military duty. This amendment also extends the City health and basic life insurance coverage for employees called to active military duty at the same rates as for active employees. Both benefits expire April 1, 2019. In order to be effective, the benefits must be renewed. Removal of the annual renewal verbiage will permanently extend the benefits, unless and until modified through commission action.
Fiscal Note
Policy L-8 funds are currently budgeted for Fiscal Year 2019.
Recommendation
Approve revision to Human Resources Policy L-8, Military Leave.
