RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt resolution approving the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between
the City of San Rafael and SEIU 949, Marin Association of Public Employees,
Supervisory and Miscellaneous Units.
SUMMARY/BACKGROUND:
Attached please find the Resolution and the complete Memorandum of
Understanding between the City and the SEIU 949, Marin Association of Public
Employees, which details the agreed upon wages, hours and working conditions
for the Supervisory and Miscellaneous Unit employees covered by this MOU.
The negotiations with this group centered on changes to the City's contribution to
group health benefits and the feasibility of providing an enhancement to the
current retirement plan for these employees. An actuarial study was completed
prior to these negotiations to gather information on the cost of implementing
retirement enhancements for employees of the City of San Rafael. It was
determined that in order to consider the possibility of a retirement enhancement a
long term agreement would be necessary and the Union would need to share in
the cost of implementing such a plan enhancement.
The City negotiating team and the Union team reached an agreement on a four-
year agreement that would include implementation of an enhanced retirement
plan in the third year of the agreement. The agreement reached with the Union is
consistent with the guidelines authorized by the City Council. A summary of the
key elemen{� in the MOU follows in this report.

III. Retirement:
A. Employer Paid Member Contribution (EPMC):
Pursuant to previous MOUs the City of San Rafael pays one-half of the
employees' contribution into this retirement plan, not to exceed five (5%)
percent. During the course of this MOU contract renewal the City will
incrementally lower its contribution to EPMC and adjust salary by a like
amount. The incremental change in this City expense is shown below.

to the first four percent (4.0%) of the EPMC.

from the first four percent (4.0%) to the first three percent (3.0%).

(1.5%)
4. Effective July 1, 2005 bargaining unit members shall pay the full share
of the employees' contribution (EPMC rate) to the Marin County
Employees' Retirement System.
B. Member'.,ost of Livinq Rates:
In the employees' retirement system, Marin County Employees' Retirement
System, a cost of living adjustment (COLA) is built into the employer and
employee retirement contribution rates. Information obtained from
representatives of this system indicated that in all other employer plans in
this retirement system, the COLA rate was built into the EPMC rate, not
split between the employer and EPMC rate, as is the case with the City of
San Rafael. It is estimated by the actuarial study report that the employer
contribution to the COLA is 1.34% of payroll for employees categorized as
Miscellaneous members of the retirement system. With adoption of this
MOU the City and the bargaining group have agreed to shift this amount to
base salary and have the EPMC rate table adjusted by a like amount (as
allowed under Articles 6 and 6.8 of the 1937 Retirement Act). Per the
negotiated MOU this change would be implemented with the salary
increase to be granted on July 1, 2003.
C. Retirement Plan:
Effective July 1, 2004, the 2.7% @55 retirement program would be
implemented for all miscellaneous job classes represented by this
bargaining group. The implement and administration of this retirement plan
would be subject to Marin County Employee Retirement Association
procedures and regulations applicable to the 1937 Act laws that govern
such plans.
IV. Employee Benefit Changes:
City Contribution to Employee Health and Disability Insurance:
During the four-year term of this MOU the City shall increase its
contribution to the employee's premium costs for enrollment in selected
group health and disability insurance plans. Currently the City's
contribution is $250 per month fore each active and eligible retired
employee, with an additional $234 per month provided in the form of a
flexible spending account for employees.
1. Effective with the paycheck date of December 15, 2002 the City's
maximum base amount will increase to $335 per month, with the $234
per month flexible spending account continuing for active employees.
The maximum allowed for payback of any unused portion would be
reduced from $84 per month to $54 per month.
2. Effective with the paycheck date of December 15`h of subsequent years
the base level will increased by an amount equal to any increase in the
Kaiser 2 -part premium rate. The maximum allowed for pay back would
not change.
V. Non -Economic Issues:
A. Unit MOUS. Supervisory Unit and Miscellaneous Unit MOUs are
being combined into one document.
B. Discrimination: The City of San Rafael's Harassment policy and the
grievance procedure outlined in that policy is identified as the
process the employee should following in reporting alleged
discrimination/harassment instead of the grievance procedure
outlined in the MOU.
C. 125 Plan: Program is being expanded to allow for medical
reimbursement pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code.

Therefore, effective August 1, 1992, any employee of the City as of August 1,
1992, who is a member of the Union on August 1, 1992, or who subsequently
joins, and all employees in the Unit hired on or after that date shall, as a condition
of continued employment, either be required to belong to the Union or to pay to
the Union an amount equal to a fair share percentage of that which would be paid
by an employee who decides to become a member of the Union at the time of
employment. Note: The Union is obligated to annually inform the City of the fair
share amount.
The employee's earnings must be regularly sufficient after other legal and required
deductions are made to cover the amount of the dues or service fees check off
Page 6
authorized. When an employee is in a non -pay status for an entire pay period, no
withholding will be made to cover the pay period from future earnings. In the case
of an employee who is in a non -pay status during only part of the pay period, and
the salary is not sufficient to cover the full withholding, no deduction shall be
made. In this connection, all other legal and required deductions have priority
over Union dues.
The Union shall notify the City in writing as to the amount of such dues uniformly
required of all members of the Union.
2.2.4. Indemnification.
Moneys withheld by the City shall be transmitted to the Treasurer of the Union at
the address specified. The Union shall indemnify, defend, and hold the City
harmless against any claims made, and against any suit instituted against the City
on account of check off of employee organization dues or service fees. In
addition, the Union shall refund to the City any amount paid to it in error upon
presentation of supporting evidence.
CHAPTER 3. WAGES
ARTICLE 3.1. General Wages
3.1.1. Goal and Compensation Definitions.
It is the goal of the City Council to try to achieve a total compensation package for
all employees in the Miscellaneous and Supervisory bargaining units represented
by the Union total compensation in an amount equal to the following:
1. The average plus one dollar to the total compensation paid to the
same or similar classifications in the following ten (10) cities:
Fairfield, Vallejo, Hayward, San Leandro, South San Francisco,
Alameda, Napa, Novato, Santa Rosa and Sausalito; and,
2. The highest total compensation paid to the same or similar
classifications in the following agencies in Marin County: Belvedere,
Corte Madera, Fairfax, Larkspur, Marin County, Mill Valley, Novato,
Ross, San Anselmo, Sausalito, Tiburon.
Total Compensation for survey purposes shall be defined as: Top step salary
(excluding longevity pay steps), educational incentive pay, holiday pay, uniform
allowance, employer paid deferred compensation (except for such portion that
may be part of employee cafeteria plan), employer's contribution towards
employees' share of retirement, employer's retirement contribution (to be included
Page 7
for total compensation survey beginning July 1, 2004), employer paid
contributions toward insurance premiums for health, life, long term disability,
dental and vision plans, and employer paid cafeteria/flexible spending accounts.
3.1.2. Compensation Surveys
To measure progress towards the above -stated goal, the City and the Union will
jointly survey the identified benchmark positions, which are identified in the SEIU
949 MAPE Represented Benchmarks and Internal Relationships Table attached
as Exhibit "E" and included as part of this M.O.U. The City and the Union shall
review the benchmark and related survey data for accuracy and completeness.
Identified benchmark positions from other agencies include positions that are filled
as well as those that may be unfilled, so long as the benchmark position is
identified by the survey agency as being on the salary schedule and having a job
class description. Other city/agency positions are established as benchmark
positions in San Rafael's compensation survey based upon similar work and
similar job requirements.
To measure whether the goal has been reached, a survey of total compensation
for top step benchmark positions will be conducted annually during the month of
July of each year of the contract. Survey data will include all salary and benefit
increases, as defined in 'total compensation', in place or to be effective no later
than September 1 of that same year, for the purpose of applying the excess
General Tax Revenues, if any, described in this chapter. If such General Tax
Revenues are to be applied to a salary increase, there will be a wage increase
retroactive to September 1 for the year under survey for all affected job
classifications. Retroactive pay increases shall apply to all current and retired
(employees who did not resign or were terminated) employees represented by this
contract during the retroactive period.
In no event will total compensation increases available through the revenue
sharing provisions of this contract and provided for bargaining unit employees
cause the benchmark positions to exceed the stated 'total compensation' goal. All
related classifications shall receive the same increases as those received by their
assigned benchmark position (as defined in the SEIU 949 MAPE Represented
Benchmarks and Internal Salary Relationships table included as part of this
M.O.U.).
3.1.3. Salary Increases And Revenue Sharing Calculations
General Tax Revenues shall be defined for this Chapter of the Memorandum of
Understanding to include the following taxes: Sales Tax, Property Tax (Secured,
Unsecured and Unitary), Motor Vehicle License Fees, Property Transfer Tax,
Page 8
Hotel Occupancy Tax, Business License Tax and Franchise Fees. No other
revenue sources of the City will be included in this definition.
If excess General Tax Revenues are available to be applied based on the
surveying of total compensation for the benchmark positions to a salary increase,
the classifications GIS Analyst and Network Analyst will receive an additional
2.5% salary increase each September 1" when such increases are awarded,
added to any increase warranted by the survey results (This shall be done prior to
the implementation of any other equity increases.) If excess General Tax
Revenues are not available for salary increases based on the survey, the
additional 2.5% salary increase for these classifications will be added to the 2.5%
salary increase scheduled for the following year. The goal is to increase the
salary of these classifications by 2.5% each year of the agreement for a total of
10%. As an example, excess General Tax Revenues are not available in fiscal
year 2002/03, so the 2.5% salary increase will not be granted but added to next
year's 2.5% salary increase. Next year, either a 5% salary increase will be
granted, or the 5% salary increase will be added to the following year's 2.5%
salary increase, depending on the availability of excess General Tax Revenues.
During each year of this contract, if there are any remaining General Tax
Revenues, after all benchmark positions have achieved the 'total compensation'
goal outlined above, then these excess General Tax Revenues can be used to
provide additional salary or benefit increases. The excess General Tax Revenues
are limited to 1% of total compensation as calculated by the survey results
completed in each year of this contract (as outlined in Section 3.1.3). The City
and the Union shall meet to review the General Tax Revenue calculations and
agree on how the excess 1% General Tax Revenues, if available, are
implemented. If no excess General Tax Revenues are available in any particular
year (after 'total compensation' goal is reached), there is no obligation by the City
to provide for this 1 % excess General Tax Revenues sharing in subsequent years
(language specifically refers to no carry-over clause in this provision).
3.1.3.a. Fiscal Year 2002-2003 Increase
Effective July 1, 2002, bargaining unit employees shall receive an increase of
1.75% in base salary. Beginning the second full pay period following adoption by
the City Council of this M.O.U., bargaining unit employees shall receive an
increase of 1.0% in base salary (to coincide with 1.0% reduction in employee paid
retirement contributions for this fiscal year as identified in Section 4.5.1). See
Exhibit "A" for a salary table. If, after the above-described increase, the total
compensation of the top step benchmark positions has not reached the stated
goal, then bargaining unit employees shall be entitled to the following possible
salary increases:
Page 9
a. If General Tax Revenues of the City for fiscal year 2001-2002 exceed
General Tax Revenues of the City for fiscal year 2000-2001 as adjusted by
75% of the total compensation increases provided for fiscal year 2001-
2002, then the members of the bargaining unit shall be entitled to apply
30.1% of one-half (1/2) of the excess of fiscal year 2001-2002 General Tax
Revenues over fiscal year 2000-2001 General Tax Revenues adjusted for
75% of the total compensation increases provided to members in fiscal
year 2001-2002, for a salary increase.
b. Such application of the excess General Tax Revenues, as described
above, for a salary increase shall be based on the surveying of total
compensation for the benchmark positions identified on "Exhibit E"
attached to this MOU. All related bargaining unit classifications will receive
the same percentage increase as received by their assigned benchmark
positions, but if the increase would cause the benchmark position total
compensation to exceed the stated goal, then only that percentage needed
to reach the goal for the benchmark position will be applied to all related
classifications.
3.1.3.b. Fiscal Year 2003-2004 Increase
Effective July 1, 2003, bargaining unit employees shall receive an increase of
4.4% in base salary (to coincide with 1.0% reduction in employee paid retirement
contributions for this fiscal year as identified in Section 4.5.1). See Exhibit "B" for
salary table. If, after the above-described increase, the total compensation of the
top step benchmark positions has not reached the stated goal, then bargaining
unit employees shall be entitled to the following possible salary increases:
a. If General Tax Revenues of the City for fiscal year 2002-2003 exceed
General Tax Revenues of the City for fiscal year 2001-2002 as adjusted by
75% of the total compensation increases provided for fiscal year 2002-
2003, then the members of the bargaining unit shall be entitled to apply
30.1 % of one-half (1/2) of the excess of fiscal year 2002-2003 General Tax
Revenues over fiscal year 2001-2002 General Tax Revenues adjusted for
75% of the total compensation increases provided to members in fiscal
year 2002-2003, for a salary increase.
b. Such application of the excess General Tax Revenues, as described
above, for a salary increase shall be based on the surveying of total
compensation for the benchmark positions identified on "Exhibit P
attached to this MOU. All related bargaining unit classifications will receive
the same percentage increase as received by their assigned benchmark
Page 10
positions, but if the increase would cause the benchmark position total
compensation to exceed the stated goal, then only that percentage needed
to reach the goal for the benchmark position will be applied to all related
classifications.
3.1.3.c Fiscal Year 2004-2005 Increase
Effective July 1, 2004, bargaining unit employees shall receive an increase of
3.0% in base salary (to coincide with 1.5% reduction in employee paid retirement
contributions for this fiscal year as identified in Section 4.5.1 and 4.5.3.). See
Exhibit "C" for salary table. If, after the above-described increase, the total
compensation of the top step benchmark positions has not reached the stated
goal, then bargaining unit employees shall be entitled to the following possible
salary increases:
a. If General Tax Revenues of the City for fiscal year 2003-2004 exceed
General Tax Revenues of the City for fiscal year 2002-2003 as adjusted by
75% of the total compensation increases provided for fiscal year 2003-
2004, then the members of the bargaining unit shall be entitled to apply
30.1% of one-half (1/2) of the excess of fiscal year 2003-2004 General Tax
Revenues over fiscal year 2002-2003 General Tax Revenues adjusted for
75% of the total compensation increases provided to members in fiscal
year 2003-2004, for a salary increase.
b. Such application of the excess General Tax Revenues, as described
above, for a salary increase shall be based on the surveying of total
compensation for the benchmark positions identified on "Exhibit E"
attached to this MOU. All related bargaining unit classifications will receive
the same percentage increase as received by their assigned benchmark
positions, but if the increase would cause the benchmark position total
compensation to exceed the stated goal, then only that percentage needed
to reach the goal for the benchmark position will be applied to all related
classifications.
3.1.3.d. Fiscal Year 2005-2006 Increase
Effective July 1, 2005, bargaining unit employees shall receive an increase of
3.0% in base salary (to coincide with 1.5% reduction in employee paid retirement
contributions for this fiscal year as identified in Section 4.5.1). See Exhibit "D" for

General Tax Revenues of the City for fiscal year 2003-2004 as adjusted by
75% of the total compensation increases provided for fiscal year 2004-
2005, then the members of the bargaining unit shall be entitled to apply
30.1 % of one-half (1/2) of the excess of fiscal year 2004-2005 General Tax
Revenues over fiscal year 2003-2004 General Tax Revenues adjusted for
75% of the total compensation increases provided to members in fiscal
year 2004-2005, for a salary increase.
b. Such application of the excess General Tax Revenues, as described
above, for a salary increase shall be based on the surveying of total
compensation for the benchmark positions identified on "Exhibit E"
attached to this MOU. All related bargaining unit classifications will receive
the same percentage increase as received by their assigned benchmark
positions, but if the increase would cause the benchmark position total
compensation to exceed the stated goal, then only that percentage needed

All initial employment shall be at the first step of the salary range, provided that
the City Manager may make an appointment to a position at an appropriate higher

when it appears that the education or experience of a proposed employee is
substantially superior to the minimum requirements of the class and justifies a
beginning salary in excess of the first step.
3.2.2. Consideration for Step Increase.
An employee may be considered for a salary step increase in accordance with the
time interval established in the salary plan, as referenced in Exhibit "A". Which,
unless otherwise noted, salary step increases within established salary ranges are

periods.
• Shift differential shall not be considered an additional percentage on salary
for personnel involved, but shall apply only to hours actually worked; e.g.,
differential does not apply to sick leave, vacation or compensatory time, but
Page 16
does include overtime for employees regularly assigned to the swing or
graveyard shifts.
3.7.3. Bilingual Pay Incentive — Miscellaneous Employees
Within the job classifications represented by the Union provisions are hereby
established whereby an employee may receive bilingual pay for full fluency in a
foreign language.
Full fluency is defined as a skill level that will allow the employee to fully assist
someone else who does not speak English in coping with situations or problems
by translating for, conversing with and/or reading or writing written material.
An employee can petition to his/her department head for this bilingual pay
incentive. With the department head's recommendation and on review by the
Personnel Director and approval of the City Manager the employee may begin to
receive this bilingual pay incentive.
Criteria for approval of the bilingual pay incentive by the City Manager includes:
a. Certification by a recognized school of the appropriate skill level;
and/or
b. Demonstrated ability of the proficiency level on the job; and
C. Department head's recommendation and statement that the bilingual
skill of the employee can be of value to the department and the
employee in the completion of their regular work assignments.
An employee approved for the bilingual pay incentive shall receive an additional
$150.00 per month above their base salary.
This bilingual pay incentive shall be reviewed annually and as long as the
employee demonstrates (by work experience or re -testing, as determined by the
City of San Rafael) the full fluency skill level; and as long as the Department Head
indicates the value of this skill to the department and the employee in the
completion of their regular work assignments.
Removal of the bilingual pay incentive would be considered a non -disciplinary
action and as such would not be subject to any appeal/grievance procedure.
3.7.4. Bilingual Pay Incentive — Supervisory Unit
Within the Librarian 1/II classification, the Library Director shall establish one
position eligible to receive $50.00 per month Bilingual Pay Differential. This
Page 17
bilingual pay shall become effective the first payroll period after the designated
employee takes and passes an approved proficiency examination.
The employee must be certified as sufficiently fluent in a language deemed to be
of work value to the Library as determined by the Library Director and approved by
the City Manager. Fluency certification may be obtained by either passing a
department approved proficiency test or submitting a current (no more than one
year old) certificate of satisfactory proficiency/fluency from a department approved
agency or school. It is agreed that annual re -certification of fluency is required to
continue receiving the Bilingual Pay Differential. Fluency in more than one foreign
language does not entitle an employee to more than one $50.00 per month
differential.

Page 40
ARTICLE 6.4. GRIEVANCE PROCEDURE.
6.4.1. Definitions.
(1) Grievance is a dispute, which involves the interpretation or
application of any provision of this Memorandum of Understanding.
All ordinances, resolutions, rules and regulations, which are not
specifically covered by the provisions of this Memorandum shall not
be subject to the Grievance Procedure.
(2) Day shall mean any that the City Office is open for business,
excluding Saturdays, Sundays and the holidays recognized by the
City.
(3) Grievant may be an individual employee or a group of employees or
the Union on the behalf of a group of employees or the Union on its
own behalf on matters involving the City and Union relationship.
(4) Time limits begin with the day following the event causing the
grievance or the day following receipt of a grievance decision.
6.4.2. Procedure.
Step 1.
Within seven (7) days of when the grievant knew or should have known of
the act or omission causing the grievance the grievant shall present either
in writing or verbally a clear and concise statement of the grievance to the
immediate supervisor.
Within five (5) days thereafter the immediate supervisor shall investigate
and respond to the allegations of the grievant.
Step 2.
If the grievant is not satisfied with the resolution at Step 1 the grievant must
reduce the grievance to writing and present it to the Department Head
within five (5) days.
The written grievance shall contain a statement of facts about the nature of
the grievance, and shall identify the specific provisions of this Memorandum
of Understanding alleged to be violated, applicable times, places and
names of those involved, the remedy or relief requested, and shall be
signed by the grievant.
The Department Head shall confer with the grievant and within ten (10)
days respond to the allegations in writing.
Step 3.
If the grievant is not satisfied with the resolution at Step 2, the grievant shall
within five (5) days appeal the matter to the City Manager.
The City Manager shall investigate the matter, conduct a hearing if the City
Manager deems it appropriate and within ten (10) days, thereafter, respond
to the allegations in writing.
Page 41
Step 4.
If the grievance remains unresolved after Step 3, the Union may, by written
notice to the City Personnel Department within ten (10) days after the
receipt of the response in Step 3, notify the City that the Union wishes to
appeal the grievance to final and binding arbitration. The parties shall
attempt to agree upon an arbitrator. If no agreement is reached, they shall
request a list from the State Conciliation Service of nine (9) names. The
selection process will include a review of the arbitrator's availability for the
hearing.
Each party shall then alternately strike a name until only one (1) name
remains, said person to be the arbitrator. The order of striking shall be
determined by the flip of a coin.
6.4.3. Arbitration.
The arbitrator shall be empowered to conduct a hearing and to hear and receive
evidence presented by the parties. The hearing should be held within 60 calendar
days of the selection of the arbitrator. The hearing shall be informal and need not
be conducted according to technical rules of evidence. Repetitious evidence may
be excluded and oral evidence shall be taken only under oath. The arbitrator shall
determine what evidence is relevant and pertinent, as well as any procedural
matters, and he/she may call, recall and examine witnesses, as he/she deems
proper.
The burden of proof shall be upon the Union in grievance matters and upon the
City in disciplinary/discharge matters.
After the conclusion of any hearing and the submission of any post hearing
evidence or briefs agreed upon by the parties, the arbitrator shall render a written
decision which shall be final and binding upon the City, the Union and any
employee(s) involved in the grievance or disciplinary matter.
The arbitrator shall not be empowered to add to, subtract from, or in any way
modify or alter any provision of this Memorandum of Understanding. The
arbitrator shall only determine whether a grievance exists in the manner alleged
by the grievant, and what the proper remedy, if any, shall be, or in the case of
disciplinary/discharge matter whether the City allegations are accurate and the
appropriateness of the disciplinary penalty.
The fees and expenses of the arbitrator shall be shared equally by the Union and
the City. All other expenses shall be borne by the party incurring them. The cost
of the services of court reporter shall be borne by the requesting party unless
Page 42
there is a mutual agreement to share the cost or unless the arbitrator so requests.
Then the costs will be shared equally.
6.4.4. General Provisions.
(1) Employees who participate in the Grievance Procedure, by filing a
grievance or acting, as a witness on the behalf of either party shall be free
from discrimination by either the Union or the City.
(2) A grievant has the right to be represented at each stage of the procedure,
to cross examine witnesses, and have access to all information regarding
the basis of the grievance upon which the City relies in making its
determinations.
(3) If the City management fails to respond within the specified time limits, the
grievance shall, at the request of the Union, automatically be moved to the
next step of the procedure. If the Union or a grievant fails to process or
appeal a grievance within the specified time limits, the matter shall be
deemed settled. The parties may by mutual agreement waive the steps in
the procedure.
(4) If a hearing is held during work hours of employee witnesses, such
employees shall be released from duties without loss of pay or benefits to
appear at the hearing. Witnesses requested by the parties shall be
compelled to attend said hearings.
(5) The Personnel Department shall act as the central repository for all
grievances.
(6) Time limits contained herein may be extended by mutual agreement of the
parties. Absence for bona fide reasons by a grievant, the Union Executive
Director or any management official involved in responding to the grievance
shall automatically extend the time limits by the same number of days of
absence.
ARTICLE 6.5. POSITION RECLASSIFICATION PROCEDURE
The process by which an individual position may be audited to review the
appropriateness of its classification is provided in this Article.
6.5.1. Purpose.
This administrative procedure shall establish consistent guidelines for the creation
and/or review of a position's job classification.
6.5.2. Policy.
The City of San Rafael seeks to maintain a classification system and process
whereby all positions are accurately classified on the basis of current and ongoing
job responsibilities officially assigned to said position(s).
Page 43
6.5.3. Creation of New Position.
The Appointing Authority or their designee may during the budget process request
the creation of a new job classification by:
1. Completion of prescribed personnel form(s) and a position
description questionnaire form.
2. Completed forms shall be submitted to the City of San Rafael's
Personnel Department.
3. Personnel Department staff shall within 60 calendar days of receipt
of the forms complete a formal audit of the proposed job class and
prepare a written report.
4. The written report shall be submitted to the City Manager and the
City Council for final approval.
5. Creation of a new job classification shall be effective with the start of
the new fiscal year.
6.5.4. Reclassification.
The Appointing Authority or their designee or an incumbent of a position or the
Union on behalf of an employee may request, in writing, a classification review.
This classification review may be requested if the position has not been reviewed
within the previous twelve (12) months and either permanent and substantial
changes have been made in the duties and responsibilities assigned to the
position or there is evidence that the majority (50% or more) of the work being
performed is not appropriate for the position's current classification.
1. All requests for reclassification must be submitted to the Personnel
Department on prescribed personnel form(s) by the appointing
authority. Reclassification requests must be accompanied by a
current job description approved by the position's immediate
supervisor and appointing authority.
2. Employee initiated reclassification requests must first be directed to
the employee's Appointing Authority. The appointing authority shall
forward the employee's request to the Personnel Director within ten
(10) days of receipt.
3. The Personnel Director shall ensure the review (audit) of the
employee's position is completed within sixty (60) calendar days of
receipt of the request in the Personnel Department.
4. Based upon the analysis and evaluation of a position, the Personnel
Department reviewer may recommend that the position be sustained
in its current class or be reclassified (up or down) to the proper
classification based upon the assigned work. The City Manager or
Page 44
their designee shall review all reclassification recommendations
made by the Personnel Department.
5. Within ten (10) days of receipt of the written audit decision the
affected employee(s) may, in writing, submit a request for review of
this decision to the City Manager. This request for review must
show substantial error and/or omission on the part of the auditor.
The City Manager may render a decision on the appeal on the basis
of the written material or may interview the involved parties to
discuss the specific error or omission prior to rendering a decision.
6. The City Manager shall have final decision-making authority on all
reclassifications.
7. Reclassifications shall be effective the first of the month following
final approval of the action. Any changes of pay as a result of the
reallocation shall be in accordance with the City's Personnel Rules
and Regulations in effect at the time.
ARTICLE 6.6. FURLOUGH PROGRAM
Both the City of San Rafael and M.A.P.E. recognize the current economic
condition of the State of California and the City of San Rafael. Through this
recognition and in a cooperative spirit the City of San Rafael and M.A.P.E. have
worked expeditiously on the development of a Furlough Program. This
Agreement does not mean the City will necessarily implement furloughs; but in the
event it is necessary to implement due to continued economic problems in the City
of San Rafael the procedures for this Furlough Program shall provide for both
Voluntary Time Off (herein described as VTO) and Mandatory Time Off (herein
described as MTO).
6.6.1. Voluntary Time Off (VTO).
The needs of the City and the respective departments (as determined by the
Department Head and City Manager) will need to be considered in the actual
granting of VTO. Any VTO time granted and the resulting savings will have a
corresponding impact on the time needed through MTO.
1. An employee's VTO time would count in determining how many
hours of MTO an employee needed to take during the fiscal year.
2. An employee selecting VTO would receive one half hour of furlough
induced Personal Leave time off for every hour of VTO taken not to
exceed the number of furlough induced Personal Leave time off an
employee scheduled for MTO would receive (establishes a
maximum cap of 5%). This furlough induced Personal Leave time is
to be taken as described in 5.6.2. (4.b.).
Page 45
3. Employees who take VTO at a time other than when MTO is taken
by other employees will have to take vacation leave, compensatory
time off or leave without pay if the MTO results in the closure of the
department.
6.6.2. Mandatory Time Off (MTO).
MTO will be taken by the employee during the MTO period when feasible in their
respective department (as determined by the Department Head and City
Manager) and after consultation with the union. The City will attempt to schedule
MTO time in blocks of days (between Xmas and New Years) or individual days
next to scheduled holidays and/or weekends.
1. Employees may not take paid vacation time in lieu of designated
MTO time.
2. MTO time shall be considered time in pay status for the accrual of
leave and eligibility for holidays. MTO time will not impact health,
dental and life insurance benefits. At this time MTO time will impact
Marin County retirement contributions; but if the Marin County
Retirement System changes its policy on this, the City will, effective
the first of the month following notice from the Marin County
Retirement System, make the necessary change in the program's
administration to correspond with the change in the policy. Any
employee who notifies the City no later than 07-30-93 of their
retirement date, and retires from the Marin County Retirement
System during FY 93-94, shall be exempted from the MTO
requirements. If said employee did not retire during FY 93-94 as
stated, said employee would be docked in pay an amount equivalent
to the number of MTO hours taken by other represented employees.
3. MTO time shall apply toward time in service for step increases,
completion of probation, and related service credit.
4. Other Terms and Conditions:
a. The MTO program shall be limited to a maximum five percent
(5%) reduction in work hours/pay for the fiscal year. For each
MTO hour deducted, the involved employee shall be credited
with a one half hour added to a furlough induced Personal
Leave balance.
b. Personal Leave accrued through the MTO Program may be
taken beginning July 1, following fiscal year, with supervisory
approval. Furlough induced Personal Leave has no cash
value upon termination of employment. If an employee is laid
off before having the opportunity to take unused furlough
induced Personal Leave, said employee would be eligible to
Page 46
take the unused furlough induced Personal leave during the
thirty -day layoff notice period.
C. Should the City of San Rafael experience a financial windfall
during the fiscal year that furloughs are implemented, the City
and M.A.P.E. agree to re -open negotiations on this Furlough
Plan.
CHAPTER 7. MANAGEMENT RIGHTS
The City reserves, retains, and is vested with, solely and excessively, all rights of
management which have not been expressly abridged by specific provision of this

classification or higher classification (s) is equal, departmental
seniority shall be determinative.

shall be determinative.
ARTICLE 8.5. BUMPING RIGHTS

level, or into the next lower classification in which such employee has previously
held regular status. An employee who is bumped, shall be laid off in the same

ARTICLE 8.6. TRANSFER RIGHTS
The Personnel Director will make every effort to transfer an employee who is to be
affected by a reduction in force to another vacant position for which such
employee may qualify. The length of eligibility for such transfer will be the period

layoff or reduction.
ARTICLE 8.7. RE-EMPLOYMENT

vacancy prior to the appointment of individuals who have been laid off.
8.7.2. Right to Re-employment.
Each person who has been laid off or demoted in lieu of a layoff from a position
the person held, shall, in writing, be offered re -appointment in the same

City of San Rafael and MAPE/SEIU Miscellaneous and Supervisory Units
Drug and Alcohol Policy — Non DOT
Exhibit "F"
It is the policy of the City of San Rafael to provide a safe, drug-free and alcohol -free work environment for our employees.
Being under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol on the job poses serious risks to employee health and safety. This policy
sets forth the rights and obligations of covered employees. If you are a covered employee under this policy you should
familiarize yourself with the provisions of this policy BECAUSE COMPLIANCE WITH THIS POLICY IS A
CONDITION OF YOUR EMPLOYMENT.
A. EMPLOYEE QUESTIONS:
An employee shall refer any questions regarding his/her rights and obligations under the policy to the Manager of
the Human Resources Division.
B. COVERED EMPLOYEES:
All employees are covered by this policy.
C. ACCIDENT
An accident occurs when as a result of an occurrence:
an individual dies, or;
2. a covered employee receives a citation for a moving violation arising from an accident, and:
a. an individual sustains bodily injuries requiring immediate medical treatment away from the
accident scene, or:
b. one or more vehicles is disabled (excluding mechanical failure) and must be towed from the
site
D. PROHIBITIONS
Covered employees shall not be under the influence or in possession of controlled substances or alcohol during
work hours. The following conduct is prohibited and may result in termination:
1. Reporting for duty or remaining on duty while having an alcohol concentration level of .02 or greater;
2. Performing any function or activity which presents a demonstrable danger to the safety of the employee
or the safety of others, including but not limited to operating motorized or air powered equipment or
motorized vehicles and working with hazardous materials within four hours of using alcohol.
3. Being on duty or operating a City of San Rafael vehicle while possessing alcohol and/or controlled
substances;
d. Using alcohol while on duty;
Drug and Alcohol Policy
2
Reporting for duty or remaining on duty when the employee used any controlled substance, except if the
use is pursuant to the instructions of a physician who has advised the employee that the substance does
not adversely affect the employee's ability to perform his/her job;
6. Reporting for duty or remaining on duty if the employee tests positive for controlled substances;
7. Refusing to submit to any alcohol or controlled substances test required by this Policy. A covered
employee who refuses to submit to a required drug/alcohol test will be treated in the same manner as an
employee who tested 0.04 or greater on an alcohol test or tested positively on a controlled substances
test.
Refusal to submit to an alcohol or controlled substances test required by the Policy includes but is not limited to:
a. A refusal to provide a urine sample for a drug test, or a breath sample for an alcohol test;
b. An inability to provide an adequate breath or urine sample without a valid medical explanation;
C. A refusal to complete and sign the breath alcohol testing or drug testing form, or otherwise to
cooperate with the testing process in a way that prevents the completion of the test;
d. Tampering with or attempting to adulterate or substitute the urine specimen or collection
procedure;
e. Not reporting to the collection site in the time allotted by the supervisor or manager who directs
the employee to be tested;
f. Leaving the scene of an accident without a valid reason as to why authorization from a
supervisor or manager who shall determine whether to send the employee for a post -accident
drug and/or alcohol test was not obtained;
g. Consuming alcohol during the eight hours immediately following an accident, unless the
employee has been informed that his/her actions have been discounted as a contributing factor,
or if the employee has been tested.
Additionally, an employee shall report any conviction for any drug-related activity to the Human Resources Manager
within five (5) days after he/she receives notice of the conviction or as soon thereafter as practicable. An employee is not
required to report a misdemeanor marijuana conviction that is more than two (2) years old. All employees covered by this
Policy have previously been provided with a copy of the City's Drug Free Workplace Statement, and have signed an
acknowledgment that they have read the Statement and agree to comply with it.
E. CIRCUMSTANCES UNDER WHICH DRUG AND ALCOHOL TESTING WILL BE IMPOSED ON
COVERED EMPLOYEES:
Post -Accident Testing:
Post -Accident drug and alcohol testing will be conducted on employees following an accident where the
employee's performance cannot be discounted as a contributing factor.
The decision as to whether or not to test the employee will be left to a supervisory or management employee. The
presumption is for testing. The only reason an employee will not be tested following an accident is if a
determination is made that the employee's performance could not have been a contributing factor. If a fatality
occurs, the employee will be tested irrespective of whether his/her involvement may be discounted.
Drug and Alcohol Policy 3
Post -accident alcohol tests will be administered within two hours following an accident and no test may be
administered after eight hours. A post -accident drug test shall be conducted within 32 hours following the
accident.
2. Reasonable Suspicion Testing:
Covered employees are also required to submit to an alcohol or drug test when a trained supervisor has reasonable
suspicion to believe the employee may be under the influence of alcohol or controlled substances. The
observation must be based on short-term indicators, but not limited to, blurry eyes, slurring of speech, or the smell
of alcohol on the breath. The supervisor may not rely on long-term signs, such as absenteeism or tardiness alone,
to support the need for a reasonable suspicion test. Although only one trained supervisor is needed to determine
reasonable suspicion, when practicable another trained supervisor may be called upon by the suspecting
supervisor to observe the indicator(s).
The reasonable suspicion alcohol test will be administered within two hours of the observation. If not, the
employer must provide written documentation as to why the test was not promptly conducted. No test may be
administered after eight hours following the observation.
To ensure the supervisors are trained to make reasonable suspicion determinations, supervisors vested with the
authority to demand a reasonable suspicion drug and alcohol test will attend at least one hour of training on
alcohol misuse and at least one hour of training on controlled substances use. The training will cover the physical,
behavioral, speech, and performance indicators of probable alcohol misuse and use of controlled substances.
3. Return to Duty/Follow-up Testing:
A covered employee who has violated any of the prohibitions of this policy (See Section D) must submit to a
return to duty test before he/she may be returned to his/her position. The test result must indicate an alcohol
concentration of less than 0.02 or a verified negative result on a controlled substances test. In addition, because
studies have shown that the relapse rate is highest during the first year of recovery, the employee will be subject to
follow-up testing. The employee will be subject to up to six unannounced drug/alcohol tests during the first year
back to duty following the violation.
F. PROCEDURES TO BE USED FOR DETECTION OF DRUGS AND ALCOHOL
Alcohol Testing:
Alcohol testing will be conducted by using an evidential breath testing device (EBT) approved by the National
Highway Traffic safety administration.
A screening test will be conducted fust. If the result is an alcohol concentration level less than 0.02, the test is
considered a negative test. If the alcohol concentration level is 0.02 or more, a second confirmation test will be
conducted.
The procedures that will be utilized for collection and testing of the specimen are attached hereto as Attachment
A.
2. Drug Testing:
Drug testing will be conducted pursuant to the procedures set forth in
Attachment
Drug and Alcohol Policy
G. REFUSAL TO SUBMIT TO AN ALCOHOL AND/OR DRUG TEST:
rd
A covered employee who refuses to submit to any required drug/alcohol testing will be treated in the same manner
as an employee who tested 0.04 or greater on an alcohol test or tested positively on a controlled substances test.
H. CONSEQUENCES FOR EMPLOYEES FOUND TO HAVE ALCOHOL CONCENTRATION LEVELS
OF 0.02 OR GREATER BUT LESS THAN 0.04:
An employee whose test indicates an alcohol concentration level between 0.02 and 0.04 will be removed from his
or her job duties for at least 24 hours. Such an employee may be subject to discipline up to and including
termination for any such positive test. City of San Rafael will then retest the employee. Before the employee may
be returned to his/her job duties, the employee's alcohol concentration must indicate a concentration below 0.02.
I. CONSEQUENCES OF FAILING AN ALCOHOL AND/OR DRUG TEST:
A positive result from a drug test will be cause for discipline up to and including termination. An alcohol test
showing an alcohol concentration over .04 may result in disciplinary action, up to and including termination.
If a covered employee is not terminated, the employee:
must be removed from his/her work duties for at least 24 hours;
2. must submit to an examination by a substance abuse professional. Upon a determination by the
substance abuse professional, the employee may be required to undergo treatment for his/her alcohol or
drug abuse. City of San Rafael is not required to pay for the treatment;
3. may not be returned to his/her work duties until the employee submits to a return -to -duty controlled
substance and/or alcohol test (depending on which test the employee failed) which indicates an alcohol
concentration level of less than 0.02 or a negative result on a controlled substance test;
4. will be required to submit to unannounced follow-up testing after he/she has been returned to his/her
position. See section F(4) above.
J. INFORMATION CONCERNING THE EFFECTS OF ALCOHOL AND CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES
AND AVAILABLE METHODS OF INTERVENTION
Attached to this Policy as Attachment B are Fact Sheets published by the Federal Transit Administration,
addressing the effects of alcohol and the various controlled substances which are tested for under this Policy.
K. CITY OF SAN RAFAEL EAP PROGRAM

to help employees who need assistance with alcohol and controlled substances abuse.
