ART I CLE I I I. SUPPLEMENTAL BENEFITS
3.0l. Retirement
The City is a contract member of the Public Employees'
Retirement System (PERS), and it is understood and agreed
that such membership will be maintained and that employee
eligibility, classJ.fication, contributions, and benefits
are as prescribed in the contract between the City and
PERS heretofore approved by the Santa Monica City Council.
The City shall pay on behalf of each employee covered by
this Agreement an amount equal to 100% of the individual
employee's share of the required retirement contributions
to PERS (i.e. , 7% of the employee's II compensation 11 as de-
fined by law) .
These payments are not increases of salary and no salary
range applicable to any of the affected employees shall be
changed or be deemed to have been changed by reason of
such payments; as a result, the City will not treat these
payments as ordinary income and, thus, will not withhold
Federal or State income tax therefrom. The City's prac-
tice will be to report these payments as being those of
the employees so that they will be credited to the par-
ticular employee's individual account with PERS and upon
termination will belong to the employee.
It is agreed that if State and/or Federal procedures re-
quire reporting of these payments in any other manner, the
parties will abide by such requirements.
3.02. Health Insurance proqrams
A. Medical Insurance
Effective July 1, 1994, the City agrees to pay up to a
maximum of $475.00 per month towards the cost of
medical insurance coverage for employees and eligible
dependents provided that employees covered herein
partJ.cipate in the City-offered medical insurance
programs. The cost of medical insurance coverage will
be set each July 1st and will be a tlcompositell monthly
insurance premium derJ.ved by dividJ.ng the total
monthly premium for all medical plans offered by the
City, except the PERS PORAe medical plans, by the
total number of employees enrolled in said medical
plans as of July 1st. Any extra payment required
- 16 -
-- - ---
e .
under such plans shall be paid by the employee
electing such coverage.
Effective July 1, 1995, the maximum amount up to which
the City agrees to pay towards the cost of med~cal
insurance coverage will be equal to the highest
medical insurance premium contribution cap established
for any of the City's other bargaining units,
excluding any premium contribution cap established for
the PERS PORAC medical plans. The same terms and
conditions outlined in the first paragraph of this
Section will still apply.
In the event that the contribution II cap" does not
cover the cost of medical insurance coverage for
employees and eligible dependents, the City agrees to
meet and confer with LSSASM.
The City and LSSASM agree that employees should
benefit from any premium savings which accrue from the
implementation of a new health insurance program
(Triple Option Plan + Kaiser) in 1994. The following
procedure will be utilized to determine savings, if
any, and, in the event of savings, how said sav~ngs
will be distributed:
1. The actual medical insurance premium costs for
1993 for non-safety employees shall be compared
against the City's actual premium costs for the
new Triple Opt~on plan + Kaiser for those same
employees.
2. If there should be any premium savings between
1993 and 1994, each employee's share of the
savings will be determined by dividing the total
amount of the savings by the total number of City
employees (non-safety) participating in the
City's medical insurance program. Each
employee's share of any savings will be paid to
the employee by no later than March 1, 1995.
Prior to this payment, the City w~ll meet and
confer with LSSASM and the other City bargain~ng
units to determine the method by which said
payment will be made (e. g. , lump sum,
contribution to deferred compensat~on plan,
etc.) .
In the event the medical insurance premiums for the
Triple Option Plan + Kaiser for 1995, and any
subseqent calendar year J should be less than the
actual City medical insurance premiums for 1993, the
savings will be handled in accordance with the same
procedure, outlined above, with the payment being made
- 17 -
e e
to the employees by no later than March 1 of the
following calendar year.
B. Dental Insurance
Dental insurance coverage shall be provided at no cost
to employees and the~r elig~ble dependents provided
that employees covered herein participate in the City-
offered dental insurance programs.
C. Vision Insurance
Effective upon the execution date of this Agreement,
the City agrees to provide vis~on care insurance, at
no cost, to employees covered herein. The City
retains the right to select the prov~der and to set

plan. The City also retains the right to change the
provider of said vision insurance plan and/or the
level of benefits provided under the plan without
meeting and conferring.

It is agreed that the City will budget annually an amount
equal to $10.00 per employee in the appropriate unit for
tuition and required study material for career improvement

lodging and meals) and the total cost of required study
mater~als, provided, however, that:

shall be approved in advance by an authorized manage-
ment official;
B. The study course must be directed to qual~fication for

C. The employee must exhibit some reasonable expectation
of qualifying for such position upon successful com-
pletion of the study course;
D. Reimbursement shall be made only in lump-sum payments
upon successful completion of the prescribed units of

when there is an outside source of aid except in those
- 18 -
----- --- -- - -
e .
cases where the aid from the outside source(s) plus
the normal City reimbursement exceeds the cost of tu-
ition and study material for the approved study
course.
F. If approved tuition reimbursement costs exceed the
budgeted amount as described above, the costs will be
prorated so as not to exceed the budgeted amount.
G. The maximum annual amount of reimbursement per indi-

excluding any special assignment or bonus pay, shall be
made only to employees on the payroll as of June 30 of
that fiscal year. To qualify for payment, an employee
must have a sick leave "bank" of six (6) days. For
purposes of this Section, "bank" shall mean sick leave
earned in prior years and reported in the "Sick Leave
Balance Brought Forward from Prior Contract Year" column
of the IlVacation, Sick Leave and Compensatory Time" report
lssued by the Finance Department at the beginning of the

It is mutually acknowledged by the parties that the use of
Code 40 or other time off not appropriately scheduled in
advance will disqualify an employee from el~gibility for
payment under this Section. There will be an exception to
this MOU provision for employees covered hereunder who
work a compressed work schedule. Employees assigned to
work a compressed work schedule will be allowed to use
Code 40 or other paid leave time, including vacation,
compensatory time, or unclassified leave, to supplement
the eight (8) hours of paid sick leave in order to receive
a full day's pay for a sick day. The use of Code 40 or
other paid leave time in this manner by an employee
assigned to a compressed work schedule will not disqualify
the employee from being eligible for the sick leave buy-
back.
Sick leave for which payoff is received shall be con-
sidered nused" in that it will not be added to the "bank II
(or if added to the "bank" prior to the payoff date shall

ment Ordinance within one (1) year of the effective date
of this Agreement, it is understood that the City can im-
plement a charge for employee parklng in an effort to meet
those requirements. In addition, if it should become
necessary to charge for parking during the term of this
Agreement in order to comply with any other State or
Federal requirements regarding transportation management,
the City can implement sald charge. However, in no event
shall the City implement such a charge for parking without
meeting and conferring with LSSASM should any employee(s)
represented by them be subject to such a charge.
5.03. Performance Evaluations
The Division Head of each Division shall evaluate in writ-
lng the performance of employees in their respective divi-
sions and all new employees hired subsequent to the effec-
tive date of this Agreement. Such evaluation will be sub-
mitted to and approved by the City Attorney unless the
City Attorney provides a written explanation to the af-
fected employee as to why the City Attorney disagrees with
the Division Head's evaluation. Those employees who are
covered herein, but who are not members of any division in
the City Attorney's Offlce, will be evaluated by the City
Attorney. All employees will be given reasonable oppor-
tunity to discuss said evaluations with the evaluator.
The evaluations will be performed on the following basis:

months of employment.

employment.
(d) Once every year thereafter, with said performance
evaluations to be due three (3) weeks prior to
the employee's anniversary date with the City.
(e) Whenever an employee's performance substantially
declines.
If the City Attorney, or the Division Head, fails to con-
duct a performance evaluation on or before its due date,
the employee shall advise the City Attorney in writing
that the evaluation is past due. The City Attorney, or
the Division Head, shall complete the evaluation wl.thin
ten (10) days of said wrl.tten notice and any merit in-
crease tied to the evaluation shall be retroactive to the
pay period in which the evaluation was originally due.
An employee covered herein who believes that the pre-
scribed evaluation procedures have not been followed or
that the evaluation does not correspond to the facts
should make a written complaint to his/her supervisor
within ten (10) days of receiving the performance evalua-
tion. If no satisfactory response is received within five
(5) days of filing the complaint, the employee should im-
mediately forward the complaint to the City Attorney. If
no satisfactory response is received within five (5 ) days,
the employee shall have the right to submlt a written
rebuttal to the performance evaluation and to have said
rebuttal attached to and become part of the employee's
permanent performance evaluation.

In those cases where a permanent employee desires to
modify his/her work schedule to accommodate specific work
schedule needs of the employee (e .g., dependent care
arrangements) that do not fall within the normal work
schedule established for the employee's position, the
employee shall submit a request for a work schedule
modification to his/her Department Head. As long as the
operational needs of the Department and the City will
still be met, upon approval of the Department Head, the
employee's request shall be approved. If it should be
later determined that the operational needs of the
Department and the City can no longer be met with the
employee's modified work schedule, the employee shall
- 29 -
e e
receive at least th~rty (30 ) days' not~ce that his/her
modified work schedule can no longer be continued. In the
event that the employee cannot change his/her outside
scheduling need to fit within the regular work schedule
established for his/her position, the City will make every
reasonable effort to place said employee in another like
position where the employee's specif~c scheduling needs
can be accommodated. While nothing in this Section
requires that the employee's modified work schedule be
granted or that the employee be transferred to a like
position to meet the employee's outside scheduling needs,
requests shall not be unreasonably denied.
I f an employee's request for a modified work schedule is
denied and if the employee does not agree with the
decision that has been reached, the employee can grieve
such decision under Section 6.03 (Grievance and Complaint
Procedure) of this Agreement. Failure to successfully
transfer an employee under this Section will not be
grievable.
5.05. Employment Separations

provided thirty (30 ) days' actual, written notice of
any reduction in force (i. e. , layoff resulting from a
