CityCouncil | 2013-01-14 | 5 | Councilmember Daysog moved adoption of the resolutions. Vice Mayor Ezzy Ashcraft seconded the motion. Under discussion, Mayor Gilmore inquired whether the City has regular part-time employees that work more than 20 hours, to which the Senior Management Analyst responded in the affirmative. Mayor Gilmore noted if the policy is approved, regular employees working 20 hours will receive benefits, while part-time employees working more than 20 hours would not receive benefits. The Senior Management Analyst noted the program is only available for non-sworn, regular employees who have passed probation; the full time employees seeking the reduced work hours have all been through the civil service process to be appointed. Councilmember Chen stated that he is very supportive of accommodating staff needs but cannot support the work arrangement as written because there is no defined criteria and there is not limit on the number of employees who can be on the program at the same time; his concern is efficiency in each department. On the call for the question, the motion FAILED by the following voice vote Ayes: Councilmembers Daysog and Ezzy Ashcraft - 2. Noes: Councilmembers Chen, Tam and Mayor Gilmore - 3. Mayor Gilmore requested staff to make revisions and bring the matter back. The City Manager requested direction on what areas the Council wants staff to change. Mayor Gilmore stated that staff should address the issue of different treatment; requested an illustrative list of activities that would be considered if an employee wants reduced work hours.
