SECTION 6. DISABILITY OR SICKNESS:
(A). That in addition to the salaries and benefits other-
wise provided for in this resolution, each regular officer or employee of
the city, as a part of his services rendered shall be entitled to receive,
and there shall be paid to him during periods of physical disability by rea-
son of illness or injury which necessitates absence from duty, amounts in
accordance with the following schedule of disability payments to wit:
-15-
q .., ..
r
(1) In cases where such disability is NOT compens-
able under the provisions of the Workmen's Compensation Laws of the
State of California, each such employee shall be entitled to one (1) day's
absence and pay for each month of actual service (inclusive of periods
of bona fide disability absences) in the employment of said city, not to
exceed a maximum of 132 days. Each day of disability leave actually
taken by any such employee shall be deducted from his accumulated
credit.
(2) In cases where such disability IS compensable under
the provisions of the Workmen's Compensation Laws of the State of Cali-
fornia, each such employee (other than those to whom the provisions of
Section 4850 of the Labor Code of the State of California apply and who
receive benefit thereunder) shall be entitled to receive:
(a) The employee's regular salary for the so-
called waiting period provided for in said`
Workmen's Compensation Laws; and
(b) An amount equal to the difference between
the regular monthly salary of such employee
paid by said city and the amount of any com-
pensation received by any such employee under
said Workmen's Compensation Laws (exclu-
sive of medical, surgical, hospitalization,
appliances, or similar items of costs) until
the amount paid the employee equals in
dollars the aggregate amount of his accumu-
lated sick leave, computed in the same man-
ner and subject to the same changes, credits
and limitations as hereinabove set forth in
paragraph (1) of this section.
(B). The Director of Finance in preparing demands for
compensation under the provisions of this Section 6, may require the em-
ployee concerned to submit to said Director, evidence satisfactory to such
Director showing the amount of Workmen's Compensation payments re-
ceived by such employee (exclusive of medical, surgical, hospitalization,
appliances, or similar items of costs).
The City Council appreciates that in many instances it may
be impossible at the time the regular payrolls are presented to the Council
for approval to determine various amounts which may hereafter become
payable under the provisions of this Section 6 to various employees due to
a variety of reasons and causes, such for example, as delays which may
-16-
0
occur in the fixing of compensation amounts in Industrial Accident cases;
the failure of the employee to monthly or promptly receive his Workmen's
Compensation allowances, etc. In all such cases, the city shall be under
no obligation to snake to the employee the payments provided for in this
section until such time as such matters can be properly determined. The
City Manager may present to the City Council any and all problems which
may arise in the Administration of the provisions hereof, and the City
Council reserves the right to consider such problems and to determine
the same and make such adjustments and orders as may be necessary and
proper in the premises.
(C). The Council reserves the right, to be exercised in
its discretion, to at any time and from time to time, at the expense of
said city, require any such employee to appear before any duly licensed
physician or surgeon selected by the City Manager and submit to a medi-
cal and physical examination with respect to his illness, injury or disabil-
ity. The failure or refusal of any such employee to submit himself to any
such examination, may, in the discretion of the said Council, forfeit any
further rights to receive disability benefits or compensation under the
provisions of this resolution.
The written report of any such physician or surgeon to
said Council may be examined by said Council, the City Manager and City
Attorney of said city, but shall otherwise be confidential; provided, how-
ever, that the same may be introduced in evidence in any action or pro-
ceeding relative to the subject of illness, injury or disability of the patient
or person referred to therein, and such physician or surgeon may give
testimony respecting the subject of such examination and the physical condi-
tion of the employee therein referred to, and each employee of said city
accepting employment, by accepting such employment and rendering service
thereunder, does thereby automatically and accordingly so agree.
SECTION 7. VACATIONS: (A) Excepting members of the
Police and Fire Departments who shall receive annual vacations as pro-
vided by law, each officer and employee regularly employed in the service
-17-
of said city shall, subject to the limitations hereinafter set forth, be
entitled to and shall receive a vacation of 10 working days with full
salary for each year of service to said city. It is provided, however,
that in the cases of employees who have served the said city for 15 years
or more, the annual vacation or leave of absence with pay for each year
of service shall be increased so as to provide:
(1) In the case of police department a total of fifteen
(15) working days;
(2) In the case of fire department a total of nine (9)
twenty -four hour working periods; and
(3) In the case of all other employees of the city a
total of fifteen (15) working days.
(B) "Year of Service" within the meaning of this section
shall mean the period of one year from any given date during which the
employee shall have been regularly employed. All vacations shall be
taken at such times as are agreeable to the head of the department and
approved by the City Manager. Earned vacations shall not be accumulated
for a longer period than for two years' service.
SECTION 8. ADVANCEMENT AUTOMATIC UNLESS UNSATIS-
FACTORY SERVICE REPORTED:
(A) Advancement from one schedule step to another shall be
automatic unless a specific entry of unsatisfactory service appears on the
service record for the officer or employee affected, for the service period
immediatd y preceding his anniversary date. If such specific entry of un-
satisfactory service during said period does occur, then and in that event
no advancement in step shall be made, and such employee shall continue to
remain on the service step occupied by him during the period to which such
entry of unsatisfactory service relates, unless otherwise ordered by the
City Council by specific resolution.
(B) In the event a report of unsatisfactory service or of
misconduct as hereinabove provided, an employee affected thereby may,
upon the recommendation of his department head and upon the approval of
the City Manager, be reassigned to a lower classification or step range,
or may be suspended from active duty without pay for a specified period,
-18-
during which time no fringe benefits or service time shall accrue.
(C) In the event such entry of unsatisfactory service
appears, the employee affected thereby upon written application there-
for to the City Manager shall have the right to a review of said entry and
to a hearing thereon by the City Manager. Upon such review and hearing,
the City Manager's decision after such review and hearing shall be final
and conclusive. Any request for review of any such entry must be filed
with the City Manager within 15 days after the employee affected has re-
ceived knowledge or notice of the fact that such entry has been made,
otherwise the City Manager may refuse to consider the same.
SECTION 9. REPEALS: Resolution 1925 passed and adopted
on the 8th day of August, 1960, and all resolutions amending said Resolu-
tion No. 1925, and all resolutions and orders of the City Council hereto-
fore passed and adopted with reference to the same, or any of the matters
and subjects hereinabove set forth or referred to, are hereby repealed in-
sofar as the same conflict with the provisions hereof.
SECTION 10. In all cases where any employee renders ser-
vice in more than one department, and the City Council has not designated
the amount or percentage of the compensation of such employee to be
charged against any particular department or departments, the Director
of Finance may, for accounting purposes, determine and charge accordingly
the amount of percentage of the compensation or salary of any such employee
which is to be charged to each of the respective departments in which such
service was rendered. So far as reasonably practicable, such charges when
made against the various departments shall be substantially in proportion to
the service rendered such respective departments.
SECTION 11. EFFECTIVE DATE: This resolution shall take
effect and be in full force and virtue on and after the 1st day of August, 1961.
SECTION 12. CERTIFICATION: The City Clerk shall certify
to the passage and adoption of this resolution; shall enter the same in the
