made by the City shall be deemed final.

Agreement No. 5683
B. The procedure is not intended to be used to challenge the content of employee evaluations or
performance reviews. An employee may however, challenge the content of an evaluation by filing
an appeal to his/her department head. In the event that an employee is directly supervised by a
department head, the employee may challenge the content of the evaluation by filing an appeal to
another department head, who has been agreed upon by the employee and his/her supervisor
(department head). In either event, the department head's determination shall be final, and thus no
further appeals will be permitted.
C. The procedure is not intended to be used to challenge the merits of a reclassification, lay-off,
transfer, denial of reinstatement, or denial of a step or merit increase.

rebut any such document and have the rebuttal attached to the document prior to it becoming a
permanent part of the employee's personnel file.
Article 1.14 Layoff Procedure
1. Grounds for Layoff - Whenever, in the judgment of the City Council, it becomes necessary to
reduce the workforce because of a lack of funds, lack of work or reorganization, an employee may
be laid off, reduced in classification or displaced by another employee. Such layoff, reduction or
displacement shall result from action of the City Manager or his designee. Such action shall not
entitle the laid off, reduced or displaced employee to a right of appeal. The City Manager shall
recommend to the City Council each classification to be affected by any such change.
2. Notice to Employees - The City shall notify the Association thirty (30) days prior to the
implementation of layoffs, to provide for adequate time to meet and confer regarding the impact.
An employee filling a full time position shall be given fourteen (14) calendar days prior notice of
lay off. Employees transferred, reduced or displaced shall be given five (5) calendar days' notice.
The City Council may approve a reduction in the notice requirements, if so recommended by the
City Manager.
3. At -Will Employees - The City Manager retains the right to layoff or alter the work assignment
of the following employees at any time without notice or right of appeal: emergency employees,
temporary or seasonal employees, part-time employees, original probationary employees,
promotional probationary employees and employees designated as at -will. The promotional
-9-
Agreement No. 5683
probationary employee shall revert to his/her previously held classification and position without
loss of seniority.
4. Procedures for Layoff - A permanent employee in a classification affected by a reduction in
force shall be laid off based on seniority in City service, that is the employee with the least City
service shall be laid off first, followed by the employee with the second least City service, etc.
Seniority shall be determined by hire date. Seniority shall mean full-time employment in any
classification in the City of El Segundo.
5. Breaking Ties- In cases where two or more employees have the same date of hire (i.e. equal
seniority), retention points for job performance shall be credited on the basis of the average of the
overall evaluation ratings for the last three (3) years in a classification, provided the last rating had
been filed at least thirty (30) days prior to the date of the layoff notice. Retention points are as
follows:
"Unsatisfactory" Rating
"Improvement needed" Rating
"Satisfactory" Rating
"Exceeds expectations" Rating
"Outstanding" Rating
- 0 points
- 6 points
- 12 points
- 18 points
- 24 points
In the event of a tie in seniority, the employee with the lowest average of retention points shall be
laid off first. In the event that one or more of the affected employees do not have a sufficient
number of performance evaluations on file, ties shall be broken by a coin toss.
6. Reduction to a Vacant Position - An employee designated for layoff as a result of abolition of a
position or classification may be offered appointment to a vacant position in a lower classification,
if the employee is qualified by education and/or experience for such position. If there is more than
one qualified employee to be offered such appointment(s), the offer(s) shall be based on seniority,
with the employee with the highest seniority offered the position first, then the next highest, etc.
If the employees have the same seniority, then the procedure for breaking ties set forth above shall
apply. An employee accepting such appointment shall be placed on the step for the lower
classification most closely corresponding, but in no case higher, than the salary step of his/her
previously held position, and the employee will be assigned a new salary anniversary date on the
effective date of the appointment.
7. Displacement Rights - An employee designated for layoff as a result of abolition of a position
or classification may displace ("bump") an employee in a lower classification in which the
employee has prior service, provided the laid off has greater seniority than the employee in the
lower classification. Full-time members of the unit who are laid off will be permitted to bump non -
benefited temporary and part-time employees if a) the classification is in the unit and b) the City
-10-
Agreement No. 5683
determines that the laid off employee is qualified for the temporary or part-time position. In such
cases, the full-time employee who has been laid off will assume temporary or part-time status.
An employee who is bumped shall be laid off in the same manner as employee whose position or
classification is abolished.
8. Salary Placement - An employee who is assigned to a lower classification as a result of a
displacement (bump) shall be placed on the step of the salary range of the new classification which
is closest to the compensation of the employee in the previous classification, but in no case higher,
and the employee will be assigned a new salary anniversary date on the effective date of the
appointment. The employee shall, however, retain seniority while his/her name remains on
reemployment list or lists.
9. Re -Employment List - The names of permanent employees who have been laid off under this
section (including employees who have bumped down) shall be placed, in order of seniority from
highest to lowest, on a reemployment list for their classification or any lower classification for
which the employee is qualified by education and/or experience. Persons on such lists shall retain
eligibility for appointment therefrom for a period of three years from the date their names were
placed on the list. As a vacancy within a classification or lower related classification becomes
available, the name appearing at the top of the list shall be offered the opportunity to fill the
vacancy. The name of an individual selected from the list to fill the vacancy who refuses the re-
employment offer shall be permanently removed from the re-employment list without right of
appeal. Laid -off employees do not earn seniority credit or benefits while on the re-employment
list.
10. Rights on Re -Employment - If a person is reemployed by the City within three years, the
employee's seniority, sick leave and vacation accrual rates shall be reinstated. Any accumulated
sick leave and/or vacation earnings shall also be reinstated to the extent that the employee did not
receive compensation for such earnings at the time of lay off. Upon reemployment, employees will
be placed on the same salary step held at the time of Jay off.
Article 1.15 Personnel Policies
1. Overtime Distribution - The City shall assign overtime work as equitably as possible among all
qualified employees in the same classification in the same organizational unit. Such overtime work
shall to the extent possible be assigned on the basis of volunteers. In the assignment of overtime
under this provision, however, management may consider special skills required to perform
particular work.
2. Good Friday - Employees shall be entitled to use vacation time for leaves with pay on Good
Friday provided such absences are scheduled and approved by the City.

Article 2.02 Overtime/Compensatory Time
Agreement No. 5683
Seven Percent (7%)
Three Percent (3%)
Two Percent (2%)
Two Percent (2%)
Two Percent (2%)
1. Overtime Calculation - An employee who is required to work more than forty (40) hours during
any given work week shall be compensated at the rate of one and one-half times his/her regular
rate of pay. The City, for purposes of calculating overtime pay, will include holiday leave as time

for purposes of determining eligibility for overtime pay.
2. Compensatory Time - Employees may substitute compensatory time for overtime pay if
approved by their Department Head as follows:
A. The employee can maintain up to eighty (80) hours of accrued compensatory overtime
at any one time, and carry over unused time from year to year.
B. The employee may use compensatory time in conjunction with normal vacation time
with prior approval of their Department Head.
C. The employee can use up to forty (40) hours of compensatory time at any one time.
3. Cash in of Compensatory Time - Employees may cash in accrued compensatory time, once per

by notifying the payroll division of their intent to do so no later than November 20th. Payment to
the employees will be made on or about the 10th of December.
4. Recall Minimum Hours - Employees who are required by their supervisor to return to work at a
time other than their scheduled work day shall be compensated for a minimum of four (4) hours
work at 1.5 times their regular rate of pay. Prescheduled overtime does not constitute recall hours
overtime.
5. Regular Rate of Pay — Regular Rate of Pay is defined in 29 CFR 778.108 et seq. The definition
used in this Resolution is for general reference and does not override the specific definitions set
-12-
Agreement No. 5683
forth in the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Therefore, as used in this Resolution, the "regular
rate of pay" is the total inclusive compensation paid to or on behalf of the employee except gifts,
travel expenses, other reimbursable expenses, payments not mandated by the former MOU or other
rules/regulations, retirement and insurance contributions by the City, overtime and holiday pay.
These are examples only and not intended to be an all-inclusive definition of the "regular rate of
pay." Applicable statutes/case law shall prevail over any definitions inconsistent with statutes/case
law.
6. Reimbursable Overtime is Not Subject to the Paid Leave Exclusion Above
a. For purposes of this Agreement, an "Inspection Event" is defined as any inspection
requested by a third party consumer to be performed outside of the Fire Department or
Planning and Building Department's regularly scheduled hours. A single Inspection Event
may include inspection of more than one item per consumer. Multiple inspection items at
the same worksite for a single consumer addressed in a single Inspection Event will not be
subject to separate minimum overtime compensation. A "worksite" is defined as a location
with the same address. If more than one Inspection Event is performed for separate
consumers on the same day, each Inspection Event is subject to the minimum overtime
compensation requirement set forth in Section b below.
b. The City shall pay a minimum of two (2) hours for reimbursable overtime compensation
or actual time worked per Inspection Event, whichever is greater, to an ESCEA unit
employee who voluntarily performs reimbursable after-hours inspection services outside
of his or her regularly scheduled work hours pursuant to the following conditions:
i. The ESCEA unit employee must be employed in the Planning and Building
Department or as a Fire Prevention Specialist;
ii. The ESCEA unit employee must receive prior written approval from his or her
supervisor to perform an Inspection Event. Should a consumer request additional
inspection item(s) while the ESCEA unit employee is at the site of an approved
Inspection Event, performance of the additional inspection item(s) shall be deemed
approved by the supervisor as part of the Inspection Event;
iii. The work performed by the ESCEA unit employee must be in connection with
his or her regular job duties;
iv. The work performed by the ESCEA unit employee must occur outside of his or
her regularly scheduled work hours;
v. The overtime wages paid by the City must be subject to being reimbursed by a
third party;
vi. The work performed by the ESCEA unit employee must be related to after-hours
inspections of premises; and
-13-
Agreement No. 5683
vii. The City retains the right to assign any after-hours inspection to any Fire
Department or Planning and Building employee (whether he or she is part of the
ESCEA unit or not) or consultant at its discretion.
Article 2.03 Family Emergency Care Sick Leave Utilization
The City shall comply with the Federal and State regulations of the Family and Medical Leave
Act; California Family Rights Act; Healthy Workplaces, Healthy Family Act of 2014; and all other
applicable family leave laws. Affected employees shall be entitled to utilize accumulated sick
leave for providing immediate family medical necessity -related care. Depending upon the
applicable leave law, "family member" may be defined as including but not limited to children,
parents, of employee and employee's spouse or registered domestic partner, siblings,
grandchildren, or grandparents. Utilization of said sick leave shall be contingent upon the
employee making application for sick leave use and providing the required documentation
evidencing that the sick leave is to be distributed because of a family member receiving medical
attention by any type of health care provider.
Article 2.04 Uniform Allowance and Replacement
The City shall pay uniform, clothing, and personnel equipment allowance as follows:
A Fire Prevention Specialist - $240 per year or equivalent per month of active duty.
C. The City reserves the right to provide uniforms in lieu of the allowances provided for herein.
Affected employees occupying the classifications of Fire Equipment Mechanic, Equipment
Mechanic I/II, Pool Technician, and all Fire Prevention Specialist classifications shall have
unserviceable uniforms replaced by the City by means of the replacement policies and procedures
applicable to sworn uniformed City police personnel. Said replacement policy shall be in addition
to any uniform maintenance allowance paid to affected employees.
The City shall provide rain gear for Building Inspectors I/II and shall additionally provide safety
shoes in an amount not to exceed $180.00 (effective March 20, 2019)(pre-tax) per 12 -month
period for those individuals required by the City to wear safety shoes. The City shall contract with
a vendor for provision of said safety shoes and the affected employees shall be required to obtain
the shoes from said vendor unless it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the employee's
department head that the vendor does not have footwear which is usable by the employee. Upon
receipt of written authorization from the department head to do so, the employee may in such case
purchase safety shoes at a location of his/her choice, subject to the maximum $180.00 (effective
