Common use of Overpayments to City Employees Clause in Contracts

Overpayments to City Employees. If it has been discovered that an overpayment or unauthorized payment has been made to a City employee, it is the responsibility of the department to notify the employee in writing and supply the employee with the documentation used to determine the overpayment. If the employee contends that any portion or the entire amount is not owed, he or she may request a meeting with the appointing authority to attempt to resolve the disagreement. If the dispute about the payment originates in another department, the employee has a right to request a meeting with the appointing authority in that department. The employee may have a representative attend such meeting(s) with him or her. If the dispute regarding overpayment arises from the interpretation of a personnel regulation or administrative regulation, the employee may grieve this matter directly to the Department Head level.
