Section 08. Shift Differential

In Extra Help AFSCME_SEIU 2022-2024
Tagged AFSCME, Extra Help, MOU, SEIU

Section 8. Shift Differential

8.1 Definition

Shift differential pay, for the purpose of this Section, is defined as pay at a rate which is one step above the extra help employee’s base pay in the salary range for their classification. If the base pay is at the top step, shift differential pay shall be computed at one step above such base pay.

8.2 Applicable Shifts

Effective no later than within the first three pay periods following Board of Supervisors’ adoption of a successor MOU in 2019, for all extra help employees (excluding extra help employees in the classifications of Shelter Care Counselors (Family Care Workers) and Transportation Officers), shift differential will be paid at shift differential rates for all hours worked between 6:00 pm and 6:00 am, excluding those on alternate work schedules, regardless of when shift begins.

Effective no later than within the first three pay periods following Board of Supervisors’ adoption of a successor MOU in 2019, for extra help employees in the classifications of Shelter Care Counselors (Family Care Workers) and Transportation Officers who are regularly assigned to work a shift of eight (8) hours or more which starts after 11:59 a.m. and before 1:01

a.m. shall be paid at shift differential rates for all hours worked during such shift.

To be eligible for shift differential, such shifts must be approved by the Department Head or designee. Time worked on a flexible schedule requested by the employee and approved by the supervisor shall not be eligible for shift differential.

8.3 Split Shifts

A split shift shall be defined as a daily work schedule that is interrupted by non-paid, non-working periods established by the County, other than bonafide rest or meal periods.

Effective no later than within the first three pay periods following Board of Supervisors’ adoption of a successor MOU in 2019, extra-help employees who are assigned to, and work, a split shift as defined in this Section shall be paid a minimum

of one (1) hour of pay at the California state minimum wage, in addition to the shift differential described in Section 8.2 where applicable.

For Shelter Care Counselors (Family Care Workers) and Transportation Officers who work a split shift, hours worked before 11:59 am shall not be combined with hours worked after 11:59 am in order to achieve the requisite eight (8) hours for shift differential pay.

Where shift differential is paid, it will only be paid for actual hours worked, not for the additional one (1) hour of pay at the California state minimum wage.
