RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 22215 to increase the hours of one (1) Registered Nurse (VWXG) position #9541 from 36/40 to 40/40 at salary level L32-1880 ($8,554 - $10,683) in the Health Services Department. (Represented)

FISCAL IMPACT:

If this action is approved, there is an annual cost of approximately $18,834, which includes pension costs of $6,686. The cost is entirely offset by federally qualified health care revenue.

BACKGROUND:

The Health Services Department is requesting to increase the hours of one (1) position, as per the Memorandum of Understanding with California Nurses Association. Registered Nurse (VWXG) position #9541 will increase its hours from 36/40 to 40/40. The incumbent to this position has been working the increased hours for the past six months to prevent mandatory overtime, and these hours are certified by the Department Manager as being operationally necessary to continue the mandated functions of the Department and to ensure patient care at the Pittsburg Health Clinic.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this action is not approved, the Pittsburg Health Clinic will not have adequate staffing to meet the demand and volume of patient care needed for those we serve.
