RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 25676 to increase the hours of one Licensed Vocational Nurse (VT7G) position #8911 at salary plan and grade level TAX-1287 ($4,692-$5,992) from 32/40 to 40/40 in the Health Services Department.(Represented)

FISCAL IMPACT:

Upon approval, this action has an approximate annual cost of $22,864 with $8,867 in pension costs already included. The increased hours will be funded 100% by the department's General Fund allocation.

BACKGROUND:

The Health Services Department is requesting to increase the hours of one Licensed Vocational Nurse position #8911 from 32/40 to 40/40 in the Health Services Department. The incumbent has been working full-time hours over the last six months and per Teamsters MOU (page 94, section 48), is requesting to formally increase their position hours. The department has confirmed there is an ongoing need for the increased hours, based on increase in nursing duties/needing coverage as a result of COVID-19 and covering hours for staff who are on leave.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this action is not approved, Detention Nursing within the Health Services Department will not have adequate staffing to meet the demand and volume of patient care needed for those we serve.
