Common use of Special Assignment Differential Clause in Contracts

Special Assignment Differential. (a) All Police Unit employees who are not assigned to the traditional 10-plan Field Operations/Patrol shift schedule, and are assigned to schedules that regularly observe holidays off shall receive a “Special Assignment” differential equal to five percent (5%) of the employee’s current base pay. This pay is in exchange for the elimination of extra holiday compensation for these positions. (b) While not all-inclusive, examples of those special assignments wherein the Special Assignment Differential would apply include positions within the Investigations Division, Administrative Services Division, Technical Services Division, Special Operations Division, Traffic Section, and Professional Standards Section. The primary qualifying factor for Special Assignment Differential is that the special assignment is one in which the assigned personnel generally observe all holidays off, as the section/unit “closes” on holidays. These can generally be described as “non-patrol” assignments.
