515 Little Canada Road, Little Canada, MN 55117 -1600 <br />(651) 484 -2177 / FAX: (651) 484 -4538 <br />MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Mayor Fahey and Members of the City Council <br />FROM: Kathy Glanzer, Deputy Clerk <br />DATE: November 6, 1998 <br />RE: Personnel Policy Changes <br />MAYOR <br />Michael I. Fahey <br />COUNCIL <br />Beverly Scalze <br />Jim LaValle <br />Steve Morel= <br />Bob Pedersen <br />ADMINISTRATOR <br />Joel R Hanson <br />As directed by the Council at its last meeting, the City Attorney reviewed the Personnel <br />Policy changes recommended by City staff, and concurred with that recommendation. <br />The issue is that State Statutes require the payment of overtime after 48 hours worked, <br />while Federal Statutes require payment after 40 hours. Cities are held to the standard that <br />is more beneficial to the employee, that is the Federal standard. Therefore, the City's <br />Personnel Policy is currently in violation with Fair Labor Standards, and should be <br />amended. <br />The Attorney will be available at Tuesday's meeting to answer any questions you might <br />have. <br />Page 7 <br />
