Promotion – One Man Truck Pay. Following ratification of the new collective bargaining agree- ment, the Employer will declare newly-created vacancies for San- itation Laborer (TC 6324) positions, to replace all current Hand Laborer (TC 6322) positions performing work which the Employer determines is needed on a regular, year-round basis. These po- sitions will be offered first to persons who are currently employed in the Hand Laborer job classification, in order of seniority. Sea- xxxxx terminations of Hand Laborers will not begin until the end of the 2008 season. In addition, all current incumbent Hand Laborers who are still employed by the City as Hand Laborers as of October 31, 2008 will be offered Sanitation Laborer positions effective No- vember 1, 2008. All individuals who are hired as Sanitation Laborers (TC 6324) following the effective date of the new collective bargaining agree- ment will be probationary career service for the first six (6) months of their employment in the Sanitation Laborer title, and will then become career service following the end of that six (6) month pe- riod. During the first year of employment, all new Sanitation La- borers will be paid at a base rate equal to 70% of the full Sanitation Laborer rate. In the second year of employment, the rate will be 80% of the full rate. In the third year, the rate will be 90%. In the fourth year, these employees will receive the full Sanitation Xx- xxxxx rate. In the event that only one full-rate Sanitation Laborer or General Laborer is assigned to a refuse, recycling or compost truck, that Sanitation Laborer/General Laborer will be paid a premium of an additional $3.25 per hour above his or her regular base rate of pay for all hours worked as the only Sanitation Laborer/General Xx- xxxxx on the truck. Effective January 1, 2021, such premium will be increased to $3.50 per hour. In the event that a break-in rate Sanitation Laborer is the only Sanitation Laborer assigned to a re- fuse, recycling or compost truck, the hourly premium to be paid that Sanitation Laborer will be the greater of 8.5% (9% effective July 1, 2008) over that Sanitation Laborer’s regular hourly rate, or the differential between that Sanitation Laborer’s regular hourly rate, and the regular full Sanitation Laborer hourly rate.
