RFP No. 60149 Comprehensive Parks Master Plan Page 41 of 44 Employees spending at least 25% of their work time on a City of San Leandro contract are covered, as long as they work for a business applicable under the terms of a covered agreement or contract. Both part-time and full-time employees are covered if they meet those criteria. Employees who are or would be covered under the state prevailing wage rat e requirement would only be covered by the Ordinance if their current prevailing wage rate was lower than the living wage rate. Please see “Guidelines for Compliance” for additional detail. 6. What types of businesses are covered by the San Leandro Living Wage Ordinance? The Living Wage Ordinance applies to entities providing services to the City of San Leandro via contract or agreement, lessees of the City and recipients of City financial aid. Please see “Guidelines for Compliance” for the thresholds and criteria for each type of employer, lessee, financial aid recipient, or subcontractor and lessee. 7. Does the Living Wage Ordinance apply to sub-contractors or sub-lessees? Subcontractor’s and sub-lessee’s are also subject to the same living wage provisions and requirements as the primary employer or lessee. Employees who are or would be covered under the state prevailing wage rate requirement would only be covered by the Ordinance if their current prevailing wage rate was lower than the living wage rate. For example, employees of a firm hired to do building improvements for the contractor would be subject to the prevailing wage requirements under state law. 8. Does the Living Wage Rate affect tenants of a financial aid recipient? It depends on the circumstances, for example, if a developer receives a $500,000 city loan to rehab a commercial building and the tenants pay the market rate, they would not be subject to the LWO. However, the benefitting developer or business (and successor s) would be subject to the LWO. 9. What types of employees are exempt? The Ordinance shall not be applicable to employees under 18 years of age, volunteers, qualified temporary employees working for the City of San Leandro, other government employees, employees that participate in a job training program, qualified disabled employees covered by a sub-minimum wage certificate or equivalent, interns or employees receiving academic credit through a job training program, employees already subject to the State’s prevailing wage requirement (if living wage rate is higher than the prevailing wage rate, then the living wage rate would apply) , employees while working stand-by or on-call duty, and any other employee where the application of the Ordinance would be prohibited by State or Federal law. 10.
