OTHER STAFFING REQUIREMENTS. All project employees will be made available by the Bank and will report directly to Bankmark’s PM. The employer of this staff will be a third-party national employment agency firm, which will be approved by the Bank and provide the Bank with a price break for budgetary purposes. It will also ensure that all local and state employment laws and requirements will be met. Their work scheduling, daily job responsibilities, and if necessary, dismissal from the project, are the responsibility of Bankmark’s PM. Prior to any dismissal of a project employee, Bankmark will review the circumstances and conditions with the Bank concerning the employee and their recommendations, if any, for dismissal. In turn, Bankmark also recognizes the importance of congeniality between project staff and the Bank. Therefore, should conflict/tension between a specific project individual and the Bank arise, Bankmark encourages the Bank to immediately bring the situation to the attention of the PS or PM so that any necessary adjustments, employee-transfers, or even dismissal/termination can be dealt with so that the flow/momentum of the project is not hindered. The determination of an hourly wage will be gauged and set by the PM based on the experience and skill level necessary to perform their job responsibilities pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement. For example, regardless of policies established within the institution, Bankmark or the organization/group will not employ $8 per-hour, fast-food, entry-level personnel for positions which require data entry and sorting skills and/or meeting the public, i.e., a skill level of $14 — $16 an hour (or prevailing wage). However, all expenditures of this nature will be within the budget described above unless otherwise agreed to by each party, in writing. Bankmark understands that part-time/temporary staff positions with no immediately offered benefits do not always attract “top” people as prospective project employees. Therefore, Bankmark will always attempt to first “pull in” qualified personnel from other projects (whether in progress or recently completed) to staff a newly beginning project so that the level of experience and training are exemplary and consistent. A combination of experienced Bankmark personnel and new hires from the project’s immediate area equate to a well-balanced on-site team, essential to the success of the project. It is important to note that typical “Bank” employees that may work for the institution post-...
OTHER STAFFING REQUIREMENTS. All part time individuals will be made available by the Bank and will report directly to Bankmark's PM. Their work scheduling, daily job responsibilities, and if necessary dismissal from the project are the responsibility of Bankmark's PM. Prior to any dismissal of a project employee, Bankmark will review the circumstances and conditions with the bank board concerning the employee and their recommendations, if any, for dismissal. The determination of an hourly wage will be gauged and set by the PM based on the experience and skill necessary to perform their job responsibilities pursuant to the requirements of this Agreement. For example, regardless of policies established within the institution, Bankmark or organization/group will not employ $8 per hour fast food entry level personnel for positions which require data entry and sorting skills and/or meeting the public, i.e. a skill level of $12-$14 an hour (or prevailing wage). However, all expenditures of this nature will be within the budget described above unless otherwise agreed to in writing by each party. The staff's payroll will be managed by the PM, a Bankmark person familiar with the firm that pays the employees. Invoices are processed through Bankmark's Payroll Manager, approved by the PM and presented to the client. The client must pay for these outside services net 15 days of presentation. Other part time staff or FTE's (Full Time Equivalent) time has been allocated pursuant to the project budget. Some staff members do not work on site at the organizational office but at Bankmark's office in San Luis Obispo, CA. This provides consistency from project to project, access through universities for data entry personnel or other essential personnel that Bankmark does not have to hire, train, and release as a project ends. Instead it provides continuity to all Bankmark's clients by spreading out the part time hours needed to support all of Bankmark's projects. For many banking professionals not being able to "see" an individual causes concern when, in fact, it is the work to be produced in total and in relationship to the project's needs at that pecific juncture. Example: Some days the data entry personnel are completely inundated with oster entry and proofing 3-4 staff members. The next day the entire off site office group is onsumed with one project. Over all what this systems provides (and within a more managed budgetary process) is the human resource component consistently but on call without the p...
