Approve Step Increase for Hourly Temporary Legal Secretary I employed by the County Counsel's Office since April 2014.
SBC FILE NUMBER: 160
AGENDA SECTION:
CONSENT AGENDA
BACKGROUND/SUMMARY:
The Office of the County Counsel is requesting approval of a step increase for the position of the Hourly Temporary Legal Secretary I currently working in the County Counsel's Office, from 13.1/C ($18.05) to 13.1/D ($18.95).
Normally step increases are provided to regular employees on an annual basis upon satisfactory performance; however, the personnel rules do not provide guidance on step increase for temporary employees. As a result, in the past, there has been precedent for such increases being approved by the Board of Supervisors.
The employee has been employed as a temporary employee since April 23, 2014 and has not received a step increase during that period of time.
This action would result in increased base wage not to exceed $894.00/year, assuming that the employee works a full 960 hours allowed by CALPERS as a CALPERS retiree. Actual hours worked has been always been significantly less than 960 per year.
BUDGETED:
Yes
