MISCELLANEOUS RESOLUTION "9155 July 15, 1999
BY: FINANCE COMMITTEE, SUE ANN DOUGLAS, CHAIRPERSON
IN RE: INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY - ADDITIONAL COMPENSATION FOR OVERTIME EXEMPT
EMPLOYEES
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS, it is anticipated that the project roll out phase of CLEMIS will
require Information Technology employees who are overtime exempt (not eligible
for overtime) to work extended hours, days and weekends on an ongoing basis for
a period up to 24-30 months; and
WHEREAS, these anticipated demands have prompted discussion between the
Personnel Department, Management and Budget and Information Technology regarding
additional compensation to offset the inconvenience of providing this level of
service for the duration described; and
WHEREAS, as employees assigned to the CLEMIS effort work in various
divisions within Information Technology, and it is important that all staff at
Information Technology be treated comparably, it is proposed that additional
compensation be provided to all overtime exempt employees at Information
Technology (excluding Managers and the Director) for hours worked beyond a 48
hour workweek (hours worked beyond 48 in a workweek must be pre-approved by
supervision in order to be compensable) at a straight time hourly rate for the
duration of the CLEMIS roll out phase; and
WHEREAS, as Information Technology has the ability to track the number of
hours worked on various projects through its project management system, it is
proposed that this additional compensation provision be reviewed after a period
of one year to evaluate its effectiveness and to consider continuation for the
balance of the CLEMIS roll out period (after which time it is anticipated that
this additional compensation will end).
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of Commissioners authorizes
additional compensation for overtime exempt employees in the Information
Technology Department (excluding Managers and the Director) at a straight time
hourly rate for all hours worked beyond 48 hours in a workweek (hours worked
beyond 48 in a workweek must be pre-approved by supervision in order to be
compensable).
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this additional compensation is intended for
the duration of the CLEMIS roll out phase anticipated to be 24-30 months in
duration, however, continuation of this additional compensation will be subject
to review and evaluation for continuation by the Board of Commissioners after one
year.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that a quarterly report to the Finance Committee
reflect the overtime usage for this purpose.
Chairperson, on behalf of the Finance Committee, I move for the adoption
of the foregoing resolution.
