Employees are entitled to retain all pay and benefits while on a leave to work for the Union, including retirement benefits and service credits. While on such leave to work for the Union, on a weekly basis, the Union or employee shall submit accurate accountings of hours worked according to the County’s payroll practices including any vacation, Holiday or other paid time off used during that week. Employees will receive pay through the County process. The Union will be billed on a regular basis as determined by the Controller’s Office for all costs associated with the individual on leave including the employer’s share of all pay, benefits and retirement contributions, and, if necessary, the cost to backfill the position, whether with overtime or an additional employee. The Union will reimburse the County in full within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt of each bill. If the Union fails to make payment within that time, future payments, benefits and retirement contributions to the employee will cease. In addition, the Union will owe interest on the amount due at a rate of five percent (5%) per month until paid in full. In the event the employee is in a business critical position, or based on the number of employees currently released to work for the union a hardship is created for the County to conduct regular business, a discussion will occur between the Union and the Department Head(s) regarding the feasibility of the release (i.e., if the request were to release the only payroll specialist in a department, it may not be feasible to release that person with only 45 days- notice; or, if the request were for an individual for whom we claim Federal funding and the County would suffer that loss.). Denials will be provided in writing including the reason for the denial. Denials may be appealed to the Human Resources Director whose decision shall be final. Every reasonable effort will be made to return the employee to their prior assignment, work location and shift upon return from this leave of absence; however the County cannot guarantee the availability of that assignment, work location or shift.
