The PERS EPMC payment structure will continue as currently provided by the City of Pleasanton and <br />appropriate definition language in the MOU. <br /> <br />17.1.1 PERS Status for Fire Prevention Personnel <br /> <br />The classifications of Fire Inspector, Hazardous Materials Coordinator and Hazardous Materials <br />Inspector will be placed in the Safety PERS plan as maintained for the line personnel. In doing so, these <br />job descriptions will be amended to reflect the safety duties of prevention personnel such as fire <br />investigation, response to emergency scenes, basic first aid or other such peripheral emergency scene <br />duties that they may be trained and equipped for. <br /> <br />17.2 Payment of Employee's Contribution <br /> <br />The Department shall pay each employee's required PERS on eligible salary and those elements of <br />compensation deemed by PERS to be "PERS Special Compensation" for example, holiday pay, uniform <br />allowance, and paramedic pay. The amount of said Department payment shall equal but not exceed <br />nine percent (9.0%) of the employee's compensation subject to retirement contributions. <br /> <br />17.3 Adoption of Credit for Unused Sick Leave Option <br /> <br />The Department contracts with PERS for the purpose of providing the "credit for unused sick leave" <br />option. The cost of said retirement option shall be bome by the Department. For purposes of <br />determining the amount of unused sick leave for which service credit is to be received, 11.2 hours of <br />sick leave shall be considered one day. <br /> <br />Section 18. Stand-by Pay Differential and Duties <br /> <br />18.1 Stand-by Pay <br /> <br />Fire Inspectors will receive "Stand-by" compensation of 2.5% of Fire Inspector "E" Step. This stand- <br />by payment will not be added to base pay compensation for the purpose of calculating overtime or other <br />salary derived benefits. <br /> <br />This stand-by payment is to compensate Inspectors for participating equally in on call assignment after <br />normal work hours for fire investigation or other emergency duties. Minimum call out pay provisions <br />elsewhere in the MOU still apply. <br />The stand-by schedule will share the required annual hours equally among the Fire Inspector position. <br />The actual rotation method and exchange of assigned time policy will be set forth in a Department <br />General Order and will also meet the needs of the Department. <br /> <br />Inspectors on stand-by will take their assigned vehicle home, if they live in the Tri-Valley area, for <br />quicker response to emergencies. Personal use of the vehicle for other than commuting purposes is not <br />allowed. <br /> <br /> 22 <br /> <br /> <br />
