RESOLUTION
BE IT RESOLVED by the Common Council of the City of Rochester that the City approve
an amendment to the 2010 collective bargaining agreement with the painters meet and confer
group in the Public Works Department that states as follows:
1. Full-time employees will take 56 furlough hours (unpaid reduction in work
hours) as requested by the City of Rochester City Administrator between the
dates of October 9, 2009, and July 1, 2010, and 40 hours between July 2,
2010, and December 16, 2010. The employees agree to record this furlough
time as directed by the Human Resources Department.
2. Employees may not use more than eight hours of furlough leave within any
payroll week and may take a minimum of one hour per day. Coordination of
furlough time with other leave time will require ongoing communication between
employees and management. Supervisory approval must be obtained for any
requested furlough leave and if employees do not request and schedule the
furlough leave within the timeframes noted above, management reserves the
right to schedule the leave. Employees agree not to use furlough leave time
• which could result in the creation of increased costs for the Employer.
3. Furlough leave will not impact vacation or sick leave accruals, or disqualify
employees from other benefits for which they are currently eligible. The annual
vacation rollover cap of two times the annual vacation accrual will be increased
by 80 hours after the last pay date in December, 2010.
4. Employees utilizing other leave options for personal reasons, a medical
condition or Family Medical Leave, will be required to participate in this furlough
plan.
5. The City will honor the 2010 wage adjustment referenced in the respective
Resolution dated March 17, 2008.
6. The City will monitor the financial condition of the City throughout 2010 and if
justification for the furlough hours is no longer warranted as evidenced by an
improved long-term, forecasted City budget, the City Administrator may reduce
the amount of furlough leave to be taken. No reimbursement will be'made to
employees who have taken excess furlough leave.
