RECOMMENDATION(S):
ADOPT Resolution No. 2016/415 approving the Memorandum of Understanding with Professional & Technical Engineers, Local 21, for the period of July 1, 2016 through June 30, 2019.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The estimated cost of the negotiated contract is $5.0 million for FY 2016/17 for the 4% wage increase; $8.8 million for FY 2017/18 ($5 million from the 4% wage increase in FY 2016/17 and $3.8 million for the 3% wage increase in FY 2017/18); and $12.6 million for FY 2018/19 ($5 million from the FY 2016/17 wage increase and $3.8 million each from the 3% wage increases in FY 2016/17 and 2017/18). The agreement includes elimination of the long-term disability program. The agreement also includes an updated Nurse Manager Longevity differential list and an adjustment to specific classifications for compaction. The classes adjusted for compaction will not receive the general wage increases. The compaction cost adjustment is approximately the same as the savings associated with the elimination of long-term disability.
