Subject:Adjustment of Salary Upon Demotion Under Section 4.3 of Salary Regulations
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
land use planning capabilities of the Department.
Section 4.3 of the Contra Costa County Salary Regulations allows the Board of
Supervisors to adjust the salary of an employee upon voluntary demotion. Approval of
this request will allow the department to continue to compensate the previous incumbent
at the Grading Inspector II rate of pay. The salary will remain at this level until such time
as the employee has progressed through the planner series to a salary equal to or in excess
of the Grading Inspector II class. Given the employee's academic background and
specialized experience, establishing the compensation at the current pay rate is
appropriate. Most importantly, this allows the implementation of the Alternative Work
Plan Agreement which facilitates the return to work for an employee with significant
skills. This Alternative Work Plan Agreement was reached with the employee, the
Department and Risk Management.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The Department will not be able to implement the Alternative Work Plan Agreement,
frustrating the Department's goal of facilitating the return to work of an employee injured
on the job.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
Not applicable.
