07 Staff Report - Approving Compensation for Temp/Hourly Employeesto`N N 0 MEETING DATE: 2/5/07
ITEM NO:
gaspjos COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
DATE: January 30, 2007
TO: MAYOR AND TOWN COUNCIL
FROM: DEBRA J. FIGONE, TOWN MANAGER
SUBJECT: ADOPT RESOLUTION APPROVING COMPENSATION FOR
CONFIDENTIAL AND TEMP/HOURLY EMPLOYEES
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt resolutions approving updated salary schedules for Confidential and Temp/Hourly
employees.
BACKGROUND:
Salary schedules for the Town's unrepresented Confidential and Temp/Hourly employees are
adopted and amended periodically by resolution. Confidential employees are fully benefited,
consistent with employees represented by the Town Employees' Association (TEA).
Temp/Hourly employees work fewer than 1,040 hours in a fiscal year and do not receive
benefits. For these unrepresented employee groups, Council approval is required to update
salaries because unrepresented employees do not bargain, nor do they have Memoranda of
Agreements with pre-approved salary adjustments in the same manner as represented employees.
DISCUSSION:
Foundational to the Town's compensation philosophy are the principles of equal pay for equal
work and the necessity to maintain a strong competitive position in the labor market to attract
and retain highly qualified personnel. Consistent with these principles, it recommended that
Confidential and Temp/Hourly salary schedules be adopted to match the hourly rates for
represented employees in comparable classifications or to the local labor market if a comparable
represented classification does not exist.
