Salary Schedule
A salary schedule for all the work classifications in which classified personnel are employed shall be adopted annually by the governing board.
Classified employees shall be placed on the salary schedule according to job requirements and experience. Such classification is made at the time of appointment.
New classified employees will be hired at Step 1 with 0-2 years previous experience; at Step 2 with 3-5 years previous experience; Step 3 with 6 or greater years experience. In a critical need situation, if a qualified applicant cannot be found, the Board and the GCEA representative may authorize a higher step.
The District may increase the salaries of its classified employees during a school year by the adoption of a resolution to that effect before the beginning of the school year.
Annual one-step pay increases will be granted upon completion of 75% of one year of service, regardless of position, by July first.
Payroll Checks & Deductions
Payroll checks for all employees will be issued from the Office of the Clerk on the 20th of each month. If the 20th falls on Saturday, Sunday or a holiday, payment will be made on the day preceding the Saturday, Sunday or holiday.
Payroll checks shall include a detachable section on which an itemized account is given of the monthly deductions as authorized by law in addition to those authorized by each employee.
It shall be the employee's responsibility to see that exemption certificates, social security numbers, changes in dependents and marital status are properly filed with the clerk before payroll checks will be issued.
Payroll sheets will be due on the 1st of each month for those employees paid on a monthly salary rate; and on the 12th of each month or on the last working day preceding the 12th when the 12th occurs on a holiday or weekend for those employees paid on an hourly rate.
Requests for deductions or to discontinue deductions for membership fees, insurance, credit union and other such deductions shall be made in writing by each employee and filed with the clerk no later than the 12th of each month. If the request for deduction is filed after that date, the deduction will be made the following month.
Accrued Sick Leave
Written notification of accrued sick days as of the previous June 30th will be provided in the August 20th paycheck or by separate letter at that time.
Loss of Pay Formula
Deductions will be computed in the following manner:
1. One full day deduction- the base salary divided by the number of days in the contract year.
2. Hourly deduction rate - the base salary divided by the number of days in the contract year, divided by hours worked per day.
3. Jury Duty - The District will pay each employee selected for jury duty the difference between the amount paid for jury duty and their regular salary.
4522 C - PERSONNEL - OVERTIME PAY/COMPENSATORY TIME
The following time elements concerning the normal working day, week, and month are established for all district classified personnel. Actual time requirements for specific assignments may vary according to district needs and budget restrictions. For purposes of computing overtime pay or compensatory time off, the specified time element will apply: Normal work week will be Sunday through Saturday.
Overtime pay/compensatory time off will be determined for the full pay period.
1. Overtime pay will be paid at the rate of one and one-half hours of the regular hourly rate.
2. Compensatory time off will be provided at a rate of one and one-half hours for each hour of overtime accumulated over and above the normal working period.
3. Monetary compensation will be paid for overtime services unless a written agreement is established between the District and the employee prior to the time the overtime service is provided.
4. All overtime must have the prior approval of the employee's immediate supervisor. Overtime hours accumulated by the employee without approval of the immediate supervisor will not receive monetary compensation or compensatory time off.
5. The maximum compensatory time which may be accrued by any affected employee shall be 240 hours (i.e., not more than 160 hours of actual overtime hours worked). An employee who has accrued the maximum number of compensatory hours shall be paid overtime compensation in cash for any additional overtime hours of work.
6. An employee shall be permitted to use accrued compensatory time within a reasonable period after it is requested if to do so would not unduly disrupt the operations of the district.
7. An employee who has accrued compensatory time off authorized to be provided under this policy, shall upon termination of employment, be paid for unused compensatory time at a rate of compensation not less than:
A. The average regular rate received by such employee during the last three years of the employee's employment or;B. The final regular rate received by such employee, whichever is higher.
1. Classified employees may perform work at a level above their normally assigned positions. A classified employee, trained in the performance of a classroom program, may take the place of a teacher for a full day in order to save the cost of calling a substitute for either the teacher or the classified employee. No substitute will be called. The classified employee will earn his/her regular rate plus $10.00 for that day.
2. After five (5) consecutive days a classified employee covering for a teacher will receive the non-certificated step of the Certified Salary Schedule.
Layover time or time accumulated while the driver does not have driving or supervisory responsibility, will be paid in accordance with the approved reduced hourly schedule. This time will not be credited as normal work time nor will drivers be able to accumulate these hours towards overtime or compensatory time off.
