In the Matter of Approving a 1997 Pay }
Equity Adjustment for Represented, ) Resolution No. 97/57
Unrepresented and Management Employes
The Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors in its capacity as governing
Board of the County of Contra Costa, and all districts of which is in the ex-officio
governing Board RESOLVES THAT:
The Board of Supervisors has previously adopted the "New Pay Equity Master
Agreement" on May 16, 1995 in Resolution 95/211 for all affected Represented,
Unrepresented and Management classifications; and
Pursuant to the Agreement, the County has reviewed the manner in which the
Labor Coalition proposes to structure the pay equity distribution to all represented
classes below the trend line and finds it acceptable with one modification.
1. Eligible classifications which are 9.0% or more below the trend line shall
receive a salary increase of 3.0439% (30 levels);
2. Eligible classifications which are less than 9.0% below the trend line shall
receive a salary increase of an amount of 1.7137% (17 levels). In the
event the salary of an eligible classification is less than 1.7137% below the
trend line, the pay equity adjustment shall not exceed the amount required
to bring the salary of the class to the trend line.
3. In lieu of retroactive pay requiring special payroll recomputation processing
back to October 1, 1996 for all eligible classes receiving a pay equity
increase effective that date, the County will make a lump-sum payment to
each eligible employee, without interest, for the months of October,
November, and December 1996 computed as follows: employee regular
pay, overtime pay and specific other earnings ordinarily computed as a
percentage of base pay, will be added together for each applicable pay
period to determine the "Retro Base Pay." This base will then be multiplied
by the percentage the individual's class is below the trend line (not to
exceed the applicable limit of either 3.0439% or 1.7137%) to arrive at the
employee's lump-sum payment. The payment amount thus computed will
be added to the employee's February 10, 1997 paycheck where it will be
listed separately as a "LUMP-SUM PAYMENT" and will be subject to
normal tax withholding and retirement deduction requirements.
4. The aforementioned pay equity increases are effective October 1, 1996.
5. The aforementioned lump sum payment in lieu of retroactive pay shall be
applicable to any and all employees in classifications below the trend line
who separated during the period October 1, 1996 through January 31,
1997.
