SAN LEANDRO ADMINISTRATIVE CODE TITLE 10 Chapter 7 HUMAN RESOURCES POLICY FOR EMPLOYEE COMPUTER PURCHASE PROGRAM X10.7.100: POLICY FOR THE EMPLOYEE COMPUTER PURCHASE PROGRAM It is the policy of the City of San Leandro to provide a computer purchase program for employees and City Council members. Interested employees and City Council members must read the packet of information regarding eligibility for the Employee Computer Purchase Program and follow the procedures for applying and participating in the Program. When eligible Program Participants are accepted, they must then complete and submit the required agreement and forms as directed in the "Employee Computer Purchase Program Packet" (Exhibit A). &10.7.105: OBJECTIVE The objective of the Employee Computer Purchase Program (EPCC) is to elevate the computer literacy of regular (permanent) full- or part-time City Employees and City Council members (the "Program Participants") through encouraging the purchase and use of home computers and software. X10.7.110: PHILOSOPHY The philosophy is that, if Program Participants can more readily purchase computer equipment for home use, they will use the equipment more frequently. Many people learn more easily and effectively in a more relaxed environment, and home computers will allow Program Participants to practice and explore without impeding their normal workload. Program Participants will become more adept at the use of City-compatible hardware and software, thereby improving valuable computer skills and work productivity. §10.7.115: ELIGIBILITY All regular (permanent) full- or part-time City employees who have completed their initial probationary period and City Council members are eligible for a loan under the program. Program Participants must agree to comply with the requirements and provisions of the plan. Program Participants are eligible to finance acquisition of only one computer every three (3) years. Program Participants will be eligible to finance upgrades to their existing system and additional software through this plan at any time. &10.7.120: LOAN LIMITS Each Program Participant is eligible to borrow, interest free, a maximum of $3,000.00. The minimum amount of a loan will be $500.00. The loan balance cannot exceed $3,000 for one individual at any time. Once a loan is initiated by a Program Participant, that Participant may not re-enter the purchase program for one (1) year. For a purchase over $3,000, the Program Participant is responsible for the cost difference, payable directly to the vendor. 07-16-01 1
