PAY PLAN -- CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH 1993/94
COMPENSATION FOR CLASS OF EMPLOYEES:
Ail rates prescribed in the compensation schedule represent
the standard rates of compensation for the classified (full-time
employees) and non-classified (part-time employes). Employees
hired as part-time, temporary or seasonal will be paid the rate
indicated for such job title, hour for hour, and are not eligible
for any City benefits. Addition or deletion to the Pay Plan will
not affect members of bargaining units unless ratified as an
amendment to their current contract. Current contracts that
specifically deviate from this Pay Plan will supersede that area
noted. In no case can the union contract and the Pay Plan be used
together for the same issue. Unless it is outlined in the
contract, the Pay Plan is the final indicator in the administration
of payroll matters.
ENTRANCE AT THE MININ~JM RATE OF PAY IN THE CLASSIFIED AND NON-
CLASSIFIED SERVICE:
The minimum rate of pay for a classification shall be paid any
person on their original appointment to a position except when the
City Manager determines there has been demonstrated an inability to
recruit at the minimum rate of pay or the new employee possesses
exceptional qualifications warranting employment at a higher rate
in the pay range.
GRADUATED RATE OF PAY IN THE CLASSIFIED AND NON-CLASSIFIED SERVICE:
Employees entering step one (1) through step five (5) will
remain at each of these steps for one year.
Employees entering step Longevity One (L-i) and step Longevity
Two (L-2) will remain at the pay level for two years.
Employees entering step Longevity Three (L-3) and Longevity
Four (L-4) will remain at that pay level for three (3) years.
Employees entering step Longevity Five (L-5) will remain at
that pay level for one (1) year.
Employees who have completed a year in step L-5 will receive
5% of their base pay or $1,000 whichever is less. This is a one
time lump sum payment issued to employees in good standing on their
anniversary date.
PER RESOLUTION R93- THERE WILL BE NO ANNIVERSARY INCREASES
GIVEN IN THE FISCAL YEAR OF 1993/94; THERE WILL BE NO ADVANCEMENTS
TO THE NEXT STEP IN THE PAY MATRIX; ALL INCREASES ARE FROZEN EXCEPT
FOR PROMOTIONS/RECLASSIFICATIONS.
'PAY PLAN - CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH 1993/94
NON-CLASSIFIED EMPLOYEES:
Employees will spend a year each in the first two steps, then
two years in the next step and final out in the fourth step.
PER RESOLUTION R93- THERE WILL BE NO ANNIVERSARY INCREASES
GIVEN IN THE FISCAL YEAR OF 1993/94; THERE WILL BE NO ADVANCEMENTS
TO THE NEXT STEP IN THE PAY MATRIX; ALL INCREASES ARE FROZEN EXCEPT
FOR PROMOTIONS.
CLASSIFIED EMPLOYEES' HOURS OF WORK, OVERTIME, CALL BACK AND
COMPENSATORY TIME:
HOURS OF WORK: The City Manager shall establish hours of work
which insofar as practicable shall be uniform within occupational
groups which shall be determined in accordance with the needs of
the service and which shall take into account the reasonable needs
of the public who MAY be required to do business with various City
departments. For purposes of the Pay Plan the City's work week
starts at 12:01 A.M. Thursday and ends at 12:00 P.M. the following
Wednesday for a total of seven consecutive days.
OVERTIME - NON EXEMPT EMPLOYEES
This section of the pay plan deals with overtime pay for non-
exempt employees (see Pay Play A) as provided by the Fair Labor
Standards Act (FLSA). Employees in this category are eligible to
be paid at the rate of time and one half (1 1/2) for any hours
worked over their regular work week of forty (40) hours. The
overtime rate of pay is calculated by multiplying the employee's
regular hourly rate by one and a half times. (See the Pay Plan for
hourly rates). The following exclusions are not included in
determining the time and a half rate:
1. Discretionary bonuses paid in recognition of services
performed during certain periods.
2. Payments made for fringe benefits.
Employees cannot be in a work status more than seven minutes
prior or seven minutes after regular work day unless they have
their supervisor's approval. Each employee must be advised of the
official start and ending time of their department work day.
For purpose of overtime the City will follow the Department of
Labor 7/8 minute rule. This rule means that an employee would not
be eligible for overtime until he has been on the job for more than
seven minutes, i.e., at the start of the 8th minute they would then
receive 15 minutes at the overtime rate as outlined above.
Likewise if they work 23 minutes they would be paid at 30 minutes
overtime or if they work 22 minutes they would be paid for 15
minutes at time and a half. This procedure will be followed if an
employee reports to work late.
2
PAY PLAN - CITY OF BOYNTON BEACH 1993/94
Employees will be paid at the rate of time and one half (1
1/2) for any hours worked over their regular work week schedule of
forty (40) hours. If the employees work on a holiday they will be
paid for the holiday if the City Manager approves and will be paid
for the hours worked at the time and one half rate. In calculating
hours actually worked for the purpose of overtime, paid leave
benefits such as holiday, sick and vacation leave shall be counted
as hours worked. However, sick leave with pay will not be granted
on a holiday. Leave without pay shall not be counted as time
worked and overtime hours worked during such a period would be
authorized at straight time. Such overtime will be subject to the
ra~e as outlined above unless such employee is covered under the
provisions of a union contract.
The sworn members of the Police and Fire Departments follow
the provision specified above except they are covered under the
FLSA 7K provision. The non-exempt Police will have a work period
of seven consecutive days commencing at 12:01 A.M. Thursday, and
ending at 12:00 P.M. the following Wednesday and continuing ever!;
seven days thereafter. The non-exempt Fire personnel will have a
work period of 21 consecutive days commencing at 12:01 A.M.
Thursday, and ending at 12:00 P.M. on the Wednesday ending 21 days
later and continuing every 21 days thereafter.
COMPENSATORY TIME
The City has adopted the following schedule which is in
compliance with FLSA for the non-exempt employees. The "comp
time" is used at the same rate the overtime rate would be paid (see
overtime). The "comp time" MUST be used within the same pay period
it was earned. Employees cannot carry forward a balance. The
employee takes the time or is paid within the seven day period.
THERE ARE NO EXCEPTIONS to this rule unless so stated in a union
contract.
EXEMPT EMPLOYEES
The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) allows for specific
exemption from the overtime procedure. These exemptions are based
on the nature of that employee's job. These include the
managerial/supervisory employees (see Pay Plan "B"). These are
staff members who meet the definition of a "bonafide" executive,
administrative or professional employee, as well as certain
recreational classifications. Along with the Department Heads the
exemption includes those employees who perform administrative tasks
and those with specific training in a specialized field. The
Department of Labor allows exempt employees up to a day's leave of
absence for either sickness or personal reasons without adjustment

the salary supplement will be cancelled after issuance of the
disability check or at the end of the time duration outlined above
whichever comes first.
