RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 26166 to increase the hours of one (1) Occupational Therapist II (V5VH) position No. 7592 and its incumbent from 36/40 to 40/40 (Org No. 6371); and decrease the hours of one (1) Occupational Therapist II (V5VH) position No. 8691 and its incumbent from 36/40 to 32/40 (Org No. 6379) both at salary plan and grade TC5-1746 ($8,416 - $10,230) in the Contra Costa Health Department. (Represented)

FISCAL IMPACT:

Upon approval, there will be no additional cost associated with this request (Cost Neutral) (100% Hospital Enterprise Fund I)

BACKGROUND:

Occasionally, incumbents may submit a request to their managers to increase or decrease their position hours. The managers then evaluate the request based on operational requirements and program service needs. One incumbent requested for their position (position No. 7592) hours to be increased from 36/40 to 40/40 due to being assigned to work in the inpatient psych and medical floor units. These units typically have a heavier workload compared to other units. The manager approved this request to make the position 40/40. In addition, increasing the hours to 40/40 will eliminate overtime costs. The second incumbent requested for their position (position No. 8691) hours to be decreased from 36/40 to 32/40. This position is assigned to work in industrial rehabilitation / ergonomic outpatient services. Decreasing the position hours would not affect the operations of the unit; therefore, the manager approved this request of the incumbent.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this action is not approved, the department will not be able to fulfill the request of the incumbents and support the operational needs.
