RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Resolution No. 2019/577, approving a side letter agreement between Contra Costa County and Teamsters Local 856 regarding airport mandatory overtime by adding Section 54.2.L. Airport Safety Officer to the current Memorandum of Understanding (July 1, 2016 - June 30, 2022).

FISCAL IMPACT:

The Airport Enterprise Fund will fund 100% of the estimated $5,200 annual cost.

BACKGROUND:

In order to comply with Federal Aviation Administration regulations (Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 139) the Airports Division must provide qualified personnel to maintain compliance at Buchanan Field. Part 139 mandates the Airports Division to perform daytime and nighttime airfield safety inspections in addition to aircraft rescue and firefighting emergency response duties. This Side Letter arises out of the Airports Division need to cover short-term and random staffing shortages related to unscheduled sick leave usage in order to comply with these Regulations. As a result, the County and Local 856 have

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

agreed to the terms of the Side Letter attached, which adds Section 54.2.L. Airport Safety Officer, I, II, III, and IV of the MOU. In summary, the Side Letter allows airport management to mandate overtime for Airport Safety Officers (ASO) and in exchange, the ASOs will receive overtime paid at 1-1/2 times their base rate of pay and they will also be paid one additional hour for the mandatory overtime shift, in accordance with the specifics of the Side Letter. All other terms and conditions of the MOU between the County and Teamsters (July 1, 2016 - June 30, 2022) remain unchanged.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The Airports would not be able to mandate overtime for Airport Safety Officers.
