WHEREAS, it is the desire of the Board of Trustees to recognize those
District employees who may be called to active military duty as a result of
Operation Enduring Freedom, or duty related thereto, by continuing compensation
and employment benefits for such employees during their terms of active military
duty,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF
TRUSTEES OF THE METROPOLITAN ST. LOUIS SEWER DISTRICT:
THAT any provision to the contrary notwithstanding, any permanent
employee of the District, or any employee working in a probationary status, who,
as a member of the National Guard or any Reserve component of the Armed
Forces of the United States, is called to active military duty as a result of
Operation Enduring Freedom, or duty related thereto, and who is placed on
military leave of absence from the District for such period of active duty, shall be
granted compensation in an amount which represents the difference between the
employee's gross regular bi-weekly pay from the District and his/her total military
pay plus allowances, if such military pay and allowances amount to less than the
employee's regular bi-weekly District pay, and shall be further granted all
insurance and employment benefits as may be applicable for said period. All
compensation and benefits as granted hereunder shall be provided retroactively to
the date that the District employee reported for active military duty, and remain in
2
effect for a period of one year or the date said employee's active military duty
status terminates, whichever is shorter.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that in order to receive said
compensation and benefits, any District employee so called to active military duty
shall submit to his/her Appointing Authority and to the Director of Personnel a
copy of the official order from the appropriate military authority evidencing that
employee's active duty status and the employee's total military pay plus
allowances. The employee shall also submit to the Director of Finance a copy of
any such military pay documents as are deemed necessary by the Director to
determine the amount of compensation to be paid to the employee hereunder.
The foregoing Resolution was adopted November 14, 2001.
