and capabilities commonly found in the labor market or the performance of all
job responsibilities consistent with general market expectations.
"Tar et" - a range of compensation associated with extensive knowledge,
expertise, skills, or capabilities or the performance of all job responsibilities that
fully and consistently meets the high performance standards and core values of
the City of Dublin.
"Premium" - a range of compensation associated with unique, special, or
exceptional knowledge, skills, capabilities or expertise, which may be in short
supply due to market conditions, or performance that meets defined criteria of
exceptional and premium value and which is widely recognized throughout the
organization because of the value -added contribution it represents. This
segment is only for a small percentage of the City workforce and placement
within this segment shall be a rare occurrence.
D. The City Manager shall have the authority to approve pay adjustments within
the pay ranges established in this ordinance. These pay adjustments shall be
based on the employee's performance, conduct;, and position in his /her pay
range, as described below.

within a reasonable period of time.
2. Employees in the "target" segment of their pay ranges shall be eligible
for normal adjustments to remain competitive with the local job market,
provided their performance meets the City's standards and they

no longer be eligible for pay adjustments unless he /she is approved for
entrance into the `Premium" segment.
3. Employees who are approved for entrance into the "premium" segment
of their pay range will be eligible for normal pay adjustments, provided

premium /value added contribution, and continue to demonstrate the
core values of the organization. Gaining access to the "Premium"
segment of the pay range shall be a very rare occurrence and only a
small percentage of the workforce shall be approved for entrance into
the "Premium" segment. Gaining access to the "premium" segment shall

the hiring manager or director and shall be based on the relative qualifications,
expertise, skills, or capabilities of the successful candidate and the existing
market conditions. A starting rate of compensation within the "premium"
segment in the range structure shall require the approval of the City Manager
and shall be based on unique, special, or exceptional qualifications, expertise,
knowledge, skill, or capabilities of the successful candidate and on existing
market conditions.
G. The listing of positions and classifications in Section 2, paragraph A and the pay
ranges established in Section 2, paragraph B. shall be reviewed on a biennial
basis by the Director of Human Resources and the Director of Finance and any
adjustment deemed necessary shall be proposed by the City Manager to Council

ordinance amending this ordinance.

appropriate to include new job classifications, pay grades, and pay ranges.
I. The City Manager shall determine competitive, equitable compensation rates
for Seasonal, Temporary, or other such casual employees of the City.

Form No. 30043
Page 12 of 24
Passed . 20
A. Effective the first pay period of each payroll calendar year, all existing
employees serving in Full -Time Permanent positions, and who are in full pay
status at such time (i.e. on duty or on approved leave with pay) shall receive
five (5) days (40 hours) of Personal Leave. However, new employees appointed
during the year shall receive a pro -rated allocation of Personal Leave in
accordance with the following schedule:
Timeframe Appointed
Personal (Leave Allocation
January 1 through March 31
40 Hours (5 days)
April 1 through June 30
32 Hours (4 days)
July 1 through September 30
20 Hours (2.5 days)

Personal Leave shall be used at the employee's discretion, provided that it is
approved in advance by the employee's Department /Division Head via the use
of the appropriate time keeping system. Personal Leave shall be used within
the same payroll calendar year in which it is allocated and shall not be carried
over to the next payroll calendar year.
B. In the event that an employee is not in full pay status at the time Personal
Leave is normally allocated to each employee, yet returns to full pay status at
some point thereafter, the amount of that employee's Personal Leave allocation
shall be pro - rated. (An employee on an approved disability leave receiving 70%
of his /her normal wages /salary shall be regarded as being in full -pay status and
would, therefore, receive the full Personal Leave allocation.) For every pay
period the employee has been in less than full pay status, 1.54 hours of Personal
Leave shall be deducted from the normal 40 hour annual allocation.
C. In the event that an employee is laid off from City service, said employee shall
be compensated for all unused personnel leave at the rate of pay in effect at
the time of layoff. For any other form of separation, no compensation will be
provided to the employee for unused personal leave.
D. Personal Leave shall not be used to artificially extend the separation date of an
employee who has resigned from employment with the City. The effective date
of the employee's resignation from employment shall be the same as the
employee's last day worked.
E. Effective the first pay period in each payroll calendar year, all existing
employees serving in Part -Time Permanent positions shall receive an amount
of Personal Leave equal to the average number of hours worked per week in
the previous 12 months. For example, if the employee averages 30 hours per
week in the previous 12 months, then they shall receive 30 hours of Personal
Leave. Employees who do not have a full 12 months of employment with the
city, shall receive 16 hours of Personal Leave. However, new employees
appointed during the year shall receive a pro -rated allocation of Personal Leave
in accordance with the following schedule on their effective date of hire:

subdivision of the State of Ohio, and who is eligible to earn Sick Leave with the
City of Dublin, shall be entitled to have this accrued but unused Sick Leave
balance from these employers transferred for use with the City of Dublin,
provided that said employee is hired by the City of Dublin within ten (10) years
after his /her date of resignation /separation from any of these past employers

employee shall not earn the full Sick Leave accrual in a given pay period unless
he /she is in full pay status for the entire pay period (i.e. on duty or on approved
leave with pay). (An employee on an approved disability leave receiving 70%
of his /her normal wages /salary shall be regarded as being in full -pay status and
would, therefore, receive the full Sick Leave accrual.) In the event an employee
is not in full pay status for an entire pay period, he /she shall accrue Sick Leave
at the rate of .034 hours for each one (1) hour in full pay status during the pay
period.
D. For employees serving in Part -Time Permanent positions, the 9 days (72 hours)
per year Sick Leave accrual shall be pro -rated in relation to the average number
of hours the employee works per week.
E. If any employee fails to submit adequate proof of illness, injury, or death in the
immediate family when requested by the City under the provisions of Section
33.47 of the Dublin Codified Ordinances; or in the event that such proof is
submitted but does not provide satisfactory evidence, such leave shall be
considered unauthorized leave and shall be without pay.
F. An employee who separates service, in good standing (employee's separation
must not be for ""just cause "), shall be entitled to convert a portion of his /her
unused Sick Leave balance to a cash payment at time of separation. The rate
of pay for such accrued unused Sick Leave shall be the employee's standard
hourly rage of pay at separation multiplied by one -third (1/3) of the total
number of accrued unused Sick Leave hours up to a maximum payment for

time in his /her compensatory time bank, he /she shall be permitted to convert
up to 50 hours of compensatory time in said bank to cash. The calculation for
converting Compensatory Time to cash shall be the employee's established
hourly rate of pay multiplied by the number of hours the employee desires to
convert. In the event the employee wishes to exercise this option, it shall be
his /her responsibility to forward a memorandum to the Department of Finance
specifying the number of hours he /she wishes to convert to cash, prior to the
end of the payroll year. The cash conversion shall then be paid in a lump sum
in the employee's regular payroll deposit, which shall be forwarded to the
employee on the scheduled pay date at the conclusion of the first pay period
in the new year. The payroll deposit in which this conversion payment is
included shall be taxed at the employee's existing W -4 rate.
E. Pursuant to the Fair Labor Standards Act, an employee with accumulated
compensatory time may request leave and shall be granted such leave so long
as the granting of said leave does not unduly disrupt City operations.
F. Pursuant to the Fair Labor Standards Act, all non - exempt employees shall,
upon termination, be paid for all accumulated compensatory time at an hourly
rate not less than the average rate received by the non - exempt employee over
the last three (3) years of employment or the final regular hourly rate,

G. When a non - exempt employee is required by an appropriate supervisor to work
on the employee's first or second regular day off within such employee's
scheduled workweek, the employee shall be compensated as follows.

authorized hours worked on their first regular day off. When an employee
works with approval from an appropriate supervisor their second regular day
off and the employee has actually worked or has been in paid status each of
the previous six days, that employee shall be compensated at the rate of
double -time for all hours worked on the second regular day off. If an
employee works their second regular day off and they have not met the above
criteria, their second regular day off shall be compensated at the rate of time -
and- one -half.

appropriate overtime rate or be credited with a minimum of three (3) hours of
compensatory time at the appropriate rate.

,!Ie: Ordinance 15-17 — Replacing the Non-Union Compensation Plan (Ordinance 73-06)
In 2006,, Ordinance 73-06, the Non-Union Compensation Plan, was passed by Council replacing
Ordinance 98-96,, which consolidated it with its then twenty-one (21) subsequent amendments.
Since that time, Ordinance 73-06 has been amended an additional twenty (20) times without a
consolidation of the amendments being produced.
Attached for your consideration is Ordinance No. 15-17 replacing Ordinance No. 73-06
("'Compensation Plan" for non-union personnel). Adoption of this ordinance will accomplish the
following objectives:
a Consolidate all amendments made to the Compensation Plan since 2006.
Incorporate updates to the compensation plan not only in terms of updating the pay tabltz
and classification of positions, but in terms of policy and associated procedures.
Ensure the compensation plan is in compliance with current Federal and State law and
governmental policies.
The following highlights specific changes made to each section of the Compensation Plan.
NOTE: These highlights are presented in order of how they appeared in the former ordinance (Ord
73-06). The resulting replacement ordinance (Ord 15-17) is sequenced as identified in the following
highlights.

Added a "Whereas" statement regarding compliance with recent change Federal/State law. Policy
and court rulings. All other changes are administrative in nature.
This section was previously deleted. All subsequent sections will be renumbered accordinglA
It is proposed to eliminate this entire section, as it refers to a car allowance to Directors that is
no longer offered. Subsequent sections will be renumbered accordingly.
It is proposed to eliminate this entire section, as it refers to a "one time only" lump sum bonus
for all employees that was paid in 2006. The City does not offer this as a form of compensation
any longer. Subsequent sections will be renumbered accordingly.

It is proposed to eliminate this entire section, as it refers to a "one time only" minimum pay
increase as part of moving to a new compensation system. Subsequent sections will be
renumbered accordingly.
No change other than renumbering to Section 3.
In addition to renumbering to Section 5:
6j* 7Z
En adon to renumbering to Section 6:
Subsectl'on A - The proposed change recognizes the fact that the City has an automated time
keeping system that accommodates the submission of time off requests and eliminates the need
for a form.
Subsecti"on E — It is proposed to allow those who are serving on Part-Time Permanent
positions to earn Personal Leave on a proportional rate to the average hours worked per week over
the course of the previous 12 months as of the end of the payroll calendar year. Currently,
employees in this work force segment only earn 16 hours of Personal Leave, regardless of average
hours actually worked. This means that an employee who averages 30 hours per week only gets
Memo re. Ord. 15-17— Replacing Ordinance 73-06, Non-Union Compensation Plan
February 23, 2017
Page 4 of 7
16 hours of Personal Leave per year, while Full time employees earn 40 hours per year. Allowingi,
proportional rate for part-time employees would increase consistency versus the full-time staff in
how Personal Leave is earned.
.Sgctl*on 11. Sick Leave
In addition to renumbering to Section 7,-,-
Subsection B — Inserted a date of January 1,, 2007 in a couple places in order to preserve the
effective date of the paragraph.
Subsection H — The proposed change clarifies language to allow the Department of Finance
to control and adjust the procedures for converting sick leave to cash. Further, it establishes that
an employee must be currently active to receive sick leave conversion under this subsection.
In addition to renumbering to Section 8:
In addition to renumbering to Section 9:
Subsection proposed to revise the table prescribing vacation accrual rates to more
accurately reflect how vacation time is actually accrued in the City of Dublin. This will not change
how the City has historically and currently credits Vacation time accruals.
Subsection B — This proposal requires new City of Dublin employees to provide notice of prior
public service within 30 days and then provide documentation thereof within 90 days of becoming
employed with the City. There have been instances of employees waiting several years before
Memo re. Ord. 15-17— Replacing Ordinance 73-06, Non-Union Compensation Plan
February 23, 2017
Page 5 of 7
disclosing this information and then requesting retroactive adjustments. The Human Resources
Department is also including this verification in their onboarding of new employees.
Subsection H,,a,, — This change specifically defines employees and the "'Executive Level" who
are permitted to convert up to 160 hours of unused vacation leave to cash at the end of each
payroll year.
Subsection Hc. — It is proposed to eliminate employees at the "Executive level" from this
constraint blocking the conversion of vacation hours if the employee falls to use at least 40 hour
of vacation time during payroll calendar year. Those at the Executive level have higher
expectations for availability and may not be able to use a minimum of 40 hours of vacation in a
tiven year.
Subsection H — The proposed change clarifies language to allow the Department of Financ
to control and adjust the procedures for converting vacation time to cash. I
This section was previously deleted. All subsequent sections will be renumbered accordingly.
In addition to renumbering to Section 10,:
Subsection proposed to revise the table increasing the amounts for Longevity Pay,
This will make the rate for non-union employees consistent with unionized employees who fall
under the United Steelworker current collective bargaining agreement. The total financial imp ac
across the entire City is $55,.000 including what was previously agreed to under the new United
Steelworkers contract. This cost was anticipated in the 2017 Operating Budget. I

surcharge is determined and charged.

expertise, skills, or capabilities or the performance of all job responsibilities that
fully and consistently meets the high performance standards and core values of
the City of Dublin.
"Premium" - a range of compensation associated with unique, special, or
exceptional knowledge, skills, capabilities or expertise, which may be in short
supply due to market conditions, or performance that meets defined criteria of

within this segment shall be a rare occurrence.
D. The City Manager shall have the authority to approve pay adjustments within

core values of the organization. Gaining access to the "Premium"
segment of the pay range shall be a very rare occurrence and only a
small percentage of the workforce shall be approved for entrance into
the "Premium" segment. Gaining access to the "premium" segment shall

Medical Leave Act (FMLA), if applicable
SECTION 126. TUITION REIMBURSEMENT
A. All employees serving in Full -Time Permanent positions shall be eligible to
participate in the City' Tuition Reimbursement Program. Under this program,
each employee shall be eligible for a maximum of Three Thousand Dollars
($3,000) in reimbursement per calendar year for fees and required textbooks,
and courses of instruction voluntarily undertaken. Courses of instruction eligible
for reimbursement under this program shall include courses necessary for job -
related degree programs or courses of study not necessarily within a job - related
degree program but which are still job related. In addition, only course work
provided by a recognized institution (e.g. college, university, community
college, post- secondary technical school, etc.) shall be eligible for
reimbursement under this program.
B. All coursework subject to potential reimbursement shall be transmitted, in
advance and through the employee's Department /Division Head, to the Director
of Human Resources for approval. The Department /Division Head shall provide
a written recommendation concerning approval /disapproval of the request at
xx -17 Page 23
time of transmittal to the Director of Human Resources. If practicable, an
employee shall make application for approval of the course work at least fifteen
(15) days prior to commencement of the course of study. The Director of
Human Resources shall evaluate the employee's coursework/degree program
for job - relatedness and shall notify the employee, in writing, regarding his
approval /disapproval of said coursework/degree program on that basis. An
employee may receive blanket approval for an entire degree program or a
continuing course of study if all courses within the program are identified. If
all or part of the program is approved, the employee need not reapply for
approval for each course within the portion(s) approved. If the Director of
Human Resources disapproves all or part of the program /coursework, the
employee may appeal, in writing, such disapproval directly to the City Manager
within 72 hours of notification from the Director of Human Resources. The City
Manager will issue a written decision on the employee's appeal within five (5)
working days of receiving the appeal.
C. Courses are to be taken on other than scheduled working hours, unless
approval is obtained from the appropriate Department /Division Head, Director
of Human Resources, and the City Manager to take such courses on work time.
D. Reimbursement shall be made upon successful completion of the course with a
grade of C (2.00) or better. The employee shall submit an official transcript or
certificate demonstrating successful completion of the course and a receipt from
the institution confirming the employee has paid for tuition, fees, and required
textbooks. Any financial assistance available to an employee shall be deducted
from the amount of tuition reimbursement that would otherwise be applied.
The employee shall not be reimbursed for incidental expenses such as paper or
supplies, mileage, parking, meals, or other expenses other than tuition, fees,
and required textbooks.
E. In the event that an employee receives reimbursement under this program and
voluntarily separates service with the City within the first year following
reimbursement, he /she shall pay 100% of the reimbursement back to the City.
Furthermore, in the event an employee voluntarily separates service during the
second year following reimbursement, he /she shall pay 50% of the
reimbursement back to the City. Should an employee have a tuition
reimbursement payback obligation to the City, such obligation must be satisfied
within one (1) year of the employee's separation date. Failure to fully satisfy
such obligation by the former employee may generate an adverse
recommendation in response to future reference checks by prospective
employers.
SECTION 13 -7. TEMPORARY WORK ASSIGNMENT
A. When an employee is designated by a Director or the City Manager to perform
higher -level duties outside the scope of his /her established job classification for
a period of more than ten (10) consecutive work days, the employee shall be
compensated at a higher rate of pay beginning on the eleventh (11t1) day and
extending for the duration of the assignment. However, if in the judgment of
the City Manager, circumstances warrant a temporary pay supplement
retroactive to the date the employee first assumed the higher -level duties, the
City Manager shall have the discretion to award such retroactivity. Upon the
determination to award a temporary pay supplement, a percentage rate
increase shall be awarded in an amount not to exceed the normal pay
adjustment percentage established for the year in which the need for the
temporary pay supplement occurs, unless unusual circumstances exist to justify
a higher rate of pay. Any exception for unusual circumstances must be
supported by substantial written justification. Under no circumstances shall the
increased rate of pay exceed the "target" maximum of the pay grade associated
with the higher -level duties. When an employee is designated to perform the
xx -17
Page 24
duties of a Director position on an interim basis, the City Manager, on a case -
by -case basis, shall have the discretion to award a temporary pay supplement
in an amount greater than the normal pay adjustment established for that
particular year, yet appropriate to the individual merits /circumstances of each
situation.
SECTION 145. OVERTIME /COMPENSATORY TIME

employee compensatory time off in lieu of overtime pay, at the rate of time -
and- one -half for each overtime hour worked, if that employee so desires. Each
non - exempt employee may accumulate a maximum compensatory time bank
of 240 hours. After a non - exempt employee has accrued this maximum
compensatory time bank, and not used it as leave, all additional overtime for
such employee shall be paid at the rate of time - and - one -half. If at the end of
each payroll year, a non - exempt employee has 120 hours of compensatory
time in his /her compensatory time bank, he /she shall be permitted to convert
up to 50 hours of compensatory time in said bank to cash. The calculation for
converting Compensatory Time to cash shall be the employee's established
hourly rate of pay multiplied by the number of hours the employee desires to
convert. In the event the employee wishes to exercise this option, it shall be
his /her responsibility to forward a memorandum to the Department of Finance
specifying the number of hours he /she wishes to convert to cash, prior to the
xx -17
Page 27
end of the payroll year. The cash conversion shall then be paid in a lump sum
in the employee's regular payroll depositekeek, which shall be forwarded to
the employee on the scheduled pay date at the conclusion of the first pay
period in the new year. The payroll depositeheek in which this conversion
payment is included shall be taxed at the employee's existing W -4 rate.
Pursuant to the Fair Labor Standards Act, an employee with accumulated
compensatory time may request leave and shall be granted such leave so long
as the granting of said leave does not unduly disrupt City operations.
Pursuant to the Fair Labor Standards Act, all non - exempt employees shall,
upon termination, be paid for all accumulated compensatory time at an hourly
rate not less than the average rate received by the non - exempt employee over
the last three (3) years of employment or the final regular hourly rate,
whichever is greater. In the event of an employee's death, such compensation
shall be paid to the employee's surviving spouse or, secondarily, his /her estate.
When a non - exempt employee is required by an appropriate supervisor
to work on the employee's first or second regular day off seyenth-�)
- seeutive day within such employee's scheduled workweek, the
employee shall be compensated as follows. Employees shall be
compensated at a rate of time - and - one -half (1 -1/2) for all authorized
hours worked on their first regular day off. When an employee works
with approval from an appropriate supervisor their second regular day
off and the employee has actually worked or has been in paid status
each of the previous six days, that employee shall be compensated at
the rate of double -time for all hours worked on the second regular day
off. If an employee works their second regular day off and they have
not met the above criteria, their second regular day off shall be
compensated at the rate of time - and - one -half. ,ffa : ,� == . ". =

FLH. When a non - exempt employee is either called in or scheduled in advance for
work by an appropriate supervisor, and the employee reports for said work
more than 30 minutes after the completion of the regularly scheduled work
hours, the employee shall be paid for a minimum of three (3) hours at the
appropriate overtime rate or be credited with a minimum of three (3) hours of
compensatory time at the appropriate rate.
GI_ Pursuant to the Fair Labor Standards Act, exempt employees are not entitled
to overtime pay or formal compensatory time. However, the policy of the City
shall be to allow Exempt personnel to take a limited amount of time off from
their duties during normal business hours, if they have been required to devote
considerable time in excess of the normally required time commitment
associated with the nature of their positions, provided they comply with the
administrative guidelines of the City Manager regarding taking such time off
from their duties.
SECTION 159. SHIFT DIFFERENTIAL

C. For employees, to include crew and communications supervisors, regularly
assigned to second or third shift, shift differential shall be applied to any hours
worked.
D. Shift differential pay shall be applicable to actual hours worked. Shift

approved paid leave, with the exception of leave due to mandatory training,
which shall qualify for shift differential pay. Mandatory training is defined as
classes /coursework where employee attendance is required by the
Division /Department Director. Time spent in optional training programs shall
not qualify for shift differential pay. If authorized overtime occurs in
coniunction with the regular workday, the shift differential, if applicable, shall
