SUBJECT; �,II ���
Availability of Shower Facilities for County .Employees
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATIONS:
1. Direct the County Administrator' s Office to distribute to
employees in the December, 1985 Employee Newsletter a survey
in which the employees in selected areas of the County can
indicate whether or not they believe the shower and locker
facilities are adequate; whether if additional facilities
were made available the employee would use them; whether the
employee would be willing to pay a monthly fee for the
support of such facilities, and whether the employee would
support the establishment of other physical fitness
facilities.
2. Report the findings of the survey to the Board of
Supervisors by the end of January, 1986.
3 . Remove this item as a referral to our Committee.
BACKGROUND:
On February 12 , 1985 , the Board referred to our Committee the
examination of whether adequate shower facilities exist in the
County Civic Center area for women employees.
Our discussions on this subject, including the follow up to the
Board' s approval of our April 8, 1985 report on this subject, has
led us to believe that many employees would be willing to pay a
fee to have more adequate shower and locker facilities available
near their place of employment. In order to validate this
belief, we are recommending that a survey of employees in the
Martinez, Pittsburg, Richmond, and Stanwell Drive, Concord areas
be conducted through the Employee Newsletter. The results of
this survey should assist the Board in determining what further
actions to take. We are also suggesting that the survey
determine whether additional physical fitness facilities, such as
a weight room, might have sufficient support from staff that it
would be worth exploring such additional facilities.
