Employees currently employed by the County of San Bernardino and/or their representatives, designated by the employee in writing, will be allowed to review the employee’s personnel records during regular business hours. Letters of reference and other matters exempted by law shall be excluded from the right of inspection by the employee. Negative information may be purged from the personnel records, subject to legal constraints, at the sole discretion of Human Resources or upon the request of the employee and upon approval of Human Resources and the employee shall be so notified. Employees desiring to review such records shall make such request in writing at least forty-eight (48) hours in advance to their appointing authority or Human Resources, Employee Benefits and Services Division.

In situations involving overpayment to an employee by the County, said employee shall be obliged to repay by payroll recovery the amount of overpayment within the time frame the overpayment was received by the employee. The Auditor/Controller’s Office or Human Resources, when applicable, shall provide documentation showing the calculations of the overpayment to the employee. Extensions to the period for repayment of the overage may be requested by the employee, subject to the approval of the County’s Auditor- Controller. Extensions will be approved only in the case of extreme hardship, and the extended period for repayment will not be longer than one and one-half times as long as the overpayment period. If the employee leaves employment prior to repayment of overage, the Auditor-Controller’s Office shall recover the amount owed from the employee’s final pay. If the amount owed is greater than the employee’s final pay, the Auditor- Controller shall initiate the collections process against the employee. In situations involving underpayment to an employee by the County, the employee shall receive the balance due within the next pay period for which the adjustment can be made, following timely submission of appropriate documentation to the Auditor/Controller’s Office, including necessary approval of the appointing authority and the Director of Human Resources. In those situations where the employee has been underpaid by seven and one-half percent (7-1/2%) or more of their base pay in the immediately preceding pay period, through no fault of their own, the employee may request an on-demand warrant to correct the error. The department payroll section shall complete the request for payroll adjustment and forward it and any necessary approval of the appointing authority to the Auditor/ Controller within one (1) working day of receipt of the employee’s request. The Auditor/Controller’s Office shall pay the employee the amount due within two (2) working days of receipt of the request for payroll adjustment from the department. For this Section, base pay shall be determined by multiplying the employee’s base rate of pay by the number or hours in their usual work schedule. The Director of Human Resources or designee must authorize payroll adjustments to correct any payroll error or omission for instances arising more than thirteen (13) pay periods prior to the request for payroll adjustment.
