Side Letter of Agreement
Between the City of San Leandro and the
San Leandro Management Organization (SLMO)
This Side Letter of Agreement is made between the City of San Leandro and the San Leandro Management Organization (SLMO) to amend the current Memorandum of Understanding for the period January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022 to include changes to the provisions for long-term disability insurance and holidays.
The City and the SLMO agree to make the following modifications to the MOU:
Section 2.2 Medical and Dental (Active)
The City will contribute monthly amounts, including the CalPERS Medical Plan “Minimum Employer Contribution”, towards the election of medical and dental benefits in the plan, or the actual premiums, whichever is less. As of January 1, 2022, these monthly contribution amounts are:
Coverage Level City Pays
Medical
Employee only $ 830.49
Employee + 1 $1,660.98
Employee + 2 or more $2,159.27
Dental
Employee only $ 49.27
Employee +1 $ 93.55
Employee +2 or more $145.84
In January of each year, the City will pay 70% of the increase in medical and dental premiums based on Kaiser and the dental core plans (i.e., 2023 premiums minus 2022 premiums, multiplied by 70%).
Section 2.5 Long-Term Disability Insurance (Active)
The City shall maintain in effect an employer paid long-term disability insurance program with a benefit percentage of sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of base monthly earnings with a maximum gross monthly benefit of six thousand dollars ($6,000.00) for all full-time employees. The plan shall provide a six-month elimination period, benefits payable to age 65 with two years "own" occupation and partial disability benefits, subject to the rules, regulations, enrollment requirements and exclusions set forth by the insurance carrier.
Section 5.0 Holidays
Full-time regular employees shall be entitled to the following holidays:
January 1 (New Year's Day)
Third Monday in January (Martin Luther King's Birthday) Second Monday in February (Lincoln's Birthday)
Third Monday in February (Washington's Birthday)
March 31 (Cesar Chavez Day)
Last Monday in May (Memorial Day)
June 19 (Juneteenth)
July 4 (Independence Day)
First Monday in September (Labor Day)
November 11 (Veterans' Day)
Thanksgiving Day
Day after Thanksgiving
One-half (½) day on the day before Christmas
One-half (½) day on the day before New Year's Day
Christmas
Holidays will be credited at eight (8) hours for one (1) holiday, which equates to 112 hours per year. When a day herein listed falls on an employee's regular day off, the employee shall be entitled to a day off in lieu thereof within the calendar year. The day selected shall be subject to approval of the Department Head.
Management employees who work a designated alternative work schedule during a week that contains a holiday may work the hours necessary to account for the hour(s) in excess of eight (8) that the employee would have worked on the holiday in lieu of taking the time as vacation or VTO. The hour(s) worked shall be scheduled at a time mutually convenient to the employee and the Department Head.
Each employee represented by the organization shall also be entitled to one floating holiday, which shall be scheduled at time mutually convenient to the employee and the Department Head. The floating holidays must be taken during each calendar year and may not be carried over to another calendar year or converted into pay. Such holidays shall be granted to employees hired on or before September 1 of each calendar year.
The above provisions will be implemented as follows:
• The new City contribution amounts toward health will be retroactively effective January 1, 2022. Employees will receive a credited adjustment. • The LTD benefit percentage will take effect May 1, 2022 upon provider implementation.
• The 2022 holiday schedule will be modified to add Juneteeth as a City observed holiday upon City Council approval. However, Cesar Chavez Day will be credited as a floating holiday in 2022 given March 31 has already passed.
