ATTACHMENT A
DAIA NON-SWORN SALARY ADJUSTMENT FORMULA
Non-sworn employees covered by the Memorandum of Understanding between Contra
Costa County and the District Attorney Investigators' Association shall receive the
same cost salary and benefit increases for .the period October 1, 1993 through
September 30, 1995 as negotiated in Memoranda of Understanding covering that period
between. Contra Costa County and the following employee Organizations for those
bargaining units specified in Section 1.1 of the respective Memorandum of
Understanding which were effective October 1, 1991: Contra Costa County Employees
Association. Local No. 1; Social Services Union, Local 535 Rank and File Unit;
United Clerical Technical and Specialized Employees Local 2700, AFSCME, AFL-CIO.
The wages for DAIA non-sworn employees shall be adjusted effective October, 1, 1993
and October .1, 1994 (or such other effective dates specified in the Memoranda of
Understanding of those Employee Organizations specified above) in accordance with
the following formula:
When the meet and confer process for the Memoranda of Understanding for
those employee Organizations specified above have been concluded for the
period October 1, 1993 through September 30, 1995, a cost analysis of the
negotiated wage and benefit increases for each Employee Organization will
be made and a total weighted average will be determined. The salary
increase for the DAIA non-sworn employees for the year October 1, 1993
through September 30, 1994 shall be equal to the weighted average
negotiated by the above specified Employee Organizations for that period
and the salary increase for the year October 1, 1994 through September
30, 1995 shall be equal to the weighted average negotiated by the above
specific Employee Organizations for that period. For example, if all the
above Employee Organizations negotiate a 2% general salary increase
effective October 1, 1993, along with equity increases for each Employee
Organization, with a total annualized cost of $20,000 and additional
benefits for each Employee Organization costing $20,000, the salary
increase for DAIA non-sworn employees effective October 1, 1993 shall be 2%
plus the percent cost determined by dividing $20,000 by the total annual
payroll for each of those Employee Organizations specified above,
multiplying the resultant percent by the total number of bargaining unit
employees in each respective Employee Organization, adding the percent
increases and dividing by the total number of filled positions in the
bargaining units in all the Employee Organizations combined to give the
weighted average. The monthly payroll for the Employee Organizations for
September 1993 times 12 will be used for the annual payroll for each of
these Employee Organizations. Not included in the negotiated wage and
benefit increases are salary increases granted as a result of the Contra
Costa County Pay Equity Study, salary increases granted as a result of
County classification studies and any benefit increases negotiated by the
Contra Costa County Health Care Coalition. If salary and benefit
increases for the other Employee Organizations are "backloaded" for a
specific year (e.g. a salary increase is effective January 1, 1994 rather
than October 1, 1993) the salary for the DAIA non-sworn employees shall be
-z-
adjusted in a like fashion. If other bargaining units have different dates for
backloading, the pay increase for non-sworn in this unit should have the same cost
impact to the County and the cost of backloaded increases for the other Employee
Organizations. This calculation shall again be on a weighted average basis again
includes non-salary cost items, as the same become effective throughout the year.
The District Attorney Investigators' Association may, at its option, have the
salary increases for the now-sworn employees determined after only one or two of
the Employee Organizations specified above have concluded the meet and confer
process for a Memorandum of Understanding covering the period October 1, 1993
through September 30, 1995.
