Upon written approval of the Executive Director the Personnel Director shall cause hourly payrolls to be established for the class and department approved. When an employee is transferred from the bi-weekly rate to an hourly rate of pay he shall be paid the same hourly rate as established for the step he occupies in his classification grade. (b) Employees electing to be paid the hourly rate on this schedule shall not be eligible for increment increases under Section 5.4 (b) of the Civil Service Rules. (c) Employees paid on an hourly base shall not be entitled to vacation, holidays sick leave, or other benefits provided for bi-weekly paid employees under the provisions of the Civil Service Rules. They shall be granted vacations in accordance with the provision in the rules covering hourly paid employees. (d) When an employee is paid hourly rates as set forth in this section he shall be accorded at least two hours of work with pay when he reports on time at the direction of his recognized supervisor for duty in this position. Should weather or other factors beyond the control of the employee prevent his working after he has reported on time for work at his place of employment at the direction of his recognized supervisor, he shall be paid for a minimum of two hours work. Section Three. (a) Forty (40) hours shall constitute the minimum work week for all classified employees of the District except those in classes of positions in which the Executive Director, acting pursuant to Rule 10, Section One of Ordinance Number 38, has prescribed an hourly work week in excess of forty (40) hours. (b) All compensation for positions in the classified service shall be paid bi-weekly. Midnight Friday shall constitute the enclose of the work week and employees shall receive their pay no later than 140 hours after close of second week in each pay period. In the event that an employee's services are terminated, or he has been employed for occasional or emergency work the Personnel Director may authorize immediate pay to such employee upon termination of service without waiting for the regular bi- weekly pay date of the District. Section Four. The appointing authority shall certify on each payroll or on a subsidiary document that each person whose name appears on the payroll has been lawfully appointed at a salary provided by this Ordinance, and that he has actually worked the time for which he will be paid, subject to the provisions of this Ordinance and the Civil Service Rules. Section Five. Whenever the Civil Service Commission approves an additional classification it shall notify the Board of Trustees as to said addition, and the recommended pay for the new or revised class; such additional classification shall be and become effective 10 days after the first meeting of the Board of Trustees after receiving said notice, provided the Board of Trustees does not disapprove the same. Section Six. All pay schedules in Ordinance No. 177 as amended shall continue in effect until the first day of the first bi-weekly pay period occurring on or after the effective date of this Ordinance, and then the rates to be paid to employees in positions of any classes for which a rate is established or changed shall become effective and be adjudicated as follows: (a) The salary of each employee whose class title remains unchanged or whose class title is changed to better describe his position, and without a substantial revision in the class of position, shall be adjudicated to the same relative step in the appropriate schedule and grade in this Ordinance for the class of position as the step the employee occupied in Ordinance No. 177 as amended, PROVIDED no present employee's bi-weekly salary rate is reduced. (b) The salary of any employee which is in excess of the maximum of the range prescribed by this Ordinance for the class and schedule to which his position has been allocated or may be reallocated shall not be reduced by reason of the new salary range and schedule. The salary of such employee shall not be increased so long as he remains in the class of position. Section Seven. The Director of Personnel shall establish such procedures as are needed to interpret and place this ordinance into effect. Section Eight. The increase in the cost of living and the necessity for adjustment of salaries and wages to meet such increased cost of living and the consequent hardship on employees at the District incident thereto creates an emergency within the meaning of the Plan and this Ordinance shall be and become effective immediately upon its adoption. The foregoing Ordinance was adopted November 27, 1959.
