CITY COUNCIL <br />AGENDA ITEM 3A <br /> <br /> <br />STAFF ORIGINATOR: Karissa Bartholomew, Human Resources Manager <br /> <br />MEETING DATE: August 27, 2018 <br /> <br />TOPIC: Temporary Increase of Office Specialist Hours <br /> <br />VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5 <br /> <br /> <br />INTRODUCTION <br /> <br />The City Council is being asked to temporarily increase the hours of the Public Services Office <br />Specialist to full-time while the Administrative Assistant is out on maternity leave. <br /> <br />BACKGROUND <br /> <br />The Public Services Administrative Assistant is expected to be out on maternity leave starting <br />early November. The Office Specialist works part-time (24 hours a week). Increasing the Office <br />Specialist’s hours to full-time will help alleviate some of the workload. <br /> <br />Temporarily increasing the part-time Office Specialist’s hours will not affect the budget. The <br />Administrative Assistant will be on unpaid leave and she has not worked long enough with the <br />City to be FMLA eligible. Therefore, the City will not be paying the employer’s portion of <br />insurance premiums. <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION <br /> <br />Approve temporarily increasing the Office Specialist’s hours to full-time while the <br />Administrative Assistant is out on maternity leave. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
