Section 23. Temporary Assignment <br /> A Department Head or his/her designee may temporarily assign an employee to a <br /> higher classification for a period not to exceed ninety (90) days. Employees so <br /> assigned shall receive additional compensation ranging between five (5 %) to ten <br /> (10 %) percent of their hourly wage for hours worked beginning with the first (1s <br /> work day, for assignments lasting five (5) or more working days. The Deputy <br /> City Manager/Director of Human Resources and the employee shall be notified in <br /> writing of said assignments. <br /> In determining the additional pay percentage for the temporary assignment, the <br /> Department Head will give consideration to: the difference between the <br /> employee's current salary and the range into which they are placed during <br /> temporary assignment, the skill set of the employee compared with the <br /> requirements of the temporary assignment, the duration of the assignment, the <br /> criticality of the position and how important the continuity of the duties are to the <br /> operations of the City, other staffing availability to perform some of the <br /> assignments normally performed by the temporarily vacant position and other job - <br /> related factors when necessary to make decisions that are reasonable and <br /> supportable. <br /> The Department Head will use discretion and judgment in assigning employees to <br /> temporary assignment, balancing the need for development and experience with <br /> the needs of the operation. When there are multiple qualified employees who <br /> could potentially fill the temporary assignment, equal rotation will be considered <br /> to provide opportunity for experience. <br /> Section 24. Transfer <br /> An employee may be transferred by the Appointing Authority to a comparable <br /> position. For purposes of this section comparable position is one with the same <br /> maximum salary, involving the performance of similar duties and requiring <br /> substantially the same minimum qualifications. <br /> If the transfer involves a change from one department to another both Department <br /> Heads must consent thereto unless the City Manager orders the transfer for <br /> purposes of economy and efficiency. Transfer shall not be used to effect <br /> discipline or a promotion or advancement. <br /> The PCEA shall be notified prior to any transfer as detailed in this Section. <br /> -29 - <br />
