RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 21624 to increase the hours of one part-time Therapy Assistant (V5WF) position #12173 from 36/40 to 40/40 hours at salary level and range QT5-1435 ($4,474-$5,438), one part-time Physical Therapist ll (V5VF) position #76417 from 28/40 hours to 32/40 at salary level and range QT5-1746 ($6,088-$7,400), two part-time Respiratory Care Practitioner ll (VIVA) position # 72768 from 24/40 hours to 32/40 and position #51805 from permanent intermittent to 16/40 hours at salary level and range QT5-1735 (6,022-$7,320) in the Health Services Department.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Upon approval, this action will result in an annual cost of approximately $82,171.36 including approximately $21,528 in pension cost and will be funded by Enterprise 1.

BACKGROUND:

In accordance with Section 52C of the MOU between the County and Local 1, permanent-intermittent and permanent part-time employees in classes represented by Local 1 who wish to have their position hours increased, must so request in writing twice per year. The Health Services Department is requesting to increase one (1) part-time Therapy Assistant position #12173 from 36/40 to 40/40 hours, one (1) part-time Physical Therapist ll position #76417 from 28/40 hours to 32/40, two (2) part-time Respiratory Care Practitioner ll positions # 72768 from 24/40 hours to 32/40 and position #51805 from PI/40 to 16/40 hours allocated to Contra Costa County Medical Center. The incumbents have consistently worked over their assigned position hours and the Department has determined the need for the additional hours will continue indefinitely in order to meet the patient care services for the medical center.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this action is not approved, the Department will not have sufficient hours in these positions to perform required and state mandated functions. Further, the County would not be in compliance with its agreement with Local 1 regarding hours increases.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Not applicable.
