Leave Accruals: Vacation leave, sick leave, administrative leave and floating holiday shall accrue during the furlough periods as though the employee were on paid status. During the furlough period, the maximum for vacation accrual shall be increased by twelve (12) days and remain at that level for twelve months following the furlough period. Probationary Period: Furlough time shall apply toward time for completion of probation and furlough time will not affect an employee's anniversary date. Benefits: There will be no change in health, dental, vision, life or holiday benefits because of the Employee Furlough Program. CaIPERS: PERS retirement contributions will continue to be based on compensation paid to the employee. Since PERS considers 1720 hours to be a full year for retirement service credit calculations, the furlough program will not affect an employee's retirement. Working on Furlough Day: Specially designated employees, as so designated by the City Manager, may be required to work on the furlough day. Any days worked during the regularly scheduled furlough will be exchanged for another day off and will be counted as the furlough for the affected employee. If the exchanged day cannot be accommodated within 30 calendar days following the observed furlough day, the specially designated employee will be compensated for working the furlough day. Non-exempt employees requested to respond to an emergency or who are otherwise required to perform work on a day while other employees are furloughed, will be compensated for at least two (2) hours of pay. The City may in its sole discretion utilize part-time employees to respond to after-hours and weekend call outs. Emergency Recall: In the case of emergency, all employees remain subject to recall as Disaster Service Workers pursuant to California Government Code Section 3100 et. seq. Unemployment: Employees are not eligible for unemployment benefits as a result of this furlough. Workers Compensation: Furlough time shall not be used in conjunction with Workers Compensation or other leave without pay. Family Medical Leave Act/California Family Rights Act: Furlough time will be calculated as part of the rolling 12-week FMLA/CFRA leave. W2 Reporting: Taxable wages reported on an employees' W2 form will continue to be based on actual annual compensation paid to an employee. Standby Pay: For purposes of this section, stand-by service by Public Works employees rendered on a furlough day will be compensated as worked on a regular day off and not as a holiday. The City will make every effort not to layoff SLCEA employees during the term of this agreement. 34
