6. Non-Represented Salary Survey Results - Recommend.
Human Resources Director Marty Fisher and Labor Relations Manager Leialani
Jensen made a request to move forward the salary results for non-represented
positions; it has been over 10 years since the last survey was conducted. In
order for the City to stay fair and have competitive salaries to motivate the
loyalty, retention and contribution of employees, last year City Council
requested the Human Resources Department (HR) to conduct the survey with
comparable cities’ salaries.
Data was collected for 40 benchmark (specialty and technical classifications)
positions by task force members comprised of city department representatives
and from HR. The information was then analyzed and discussed by department
subject matter experts.
Committee members wanted to ensure process is even with bargaining groups
and non-represented personnel. Specific questions members have are:
When have salary surveys been done in the past for AFSCME?
How many positions are there in AFSCME, and of those how many were
surveyed?

How many positions are there in non-represented, and of those how
many were surveyed?
How many positions are there in Teamsters, and of those how many
were surveyed?
Why are we implementing as of January 1, 2018?
Staff will meet with the committee Chair prior to the September 19 City
Council meeting to work through the questions. It was suggested that if
questions were not addressed by the next council meeting, councilmembers
would consider pulling the item from the consent calendar at that time.
L. Thomas moved to recommend the City Council authorize the Mayor to
implement results of the salary survey for non-represented employees. B.
Boyce seconded the motion, which passed 3-0.
7. Adjournment.
