Meeting : December 3, 2018 Agenda Item No: Office/Department: Staff Contact: Agenda Item Title: Kitsap County Board of Commissioners Labor Relations Kate Cummings KC-091-18-B - Corrections Officers MOU - Resetting Step s Recommended Action: Move that the Board of County Commissioners approve the Memorandum of Understanding between Kitsap County and Kitsap County Sheriff's Office and the Corrections Officers Guild. KC-091-18-B - Corrections Officers MOU - Resetting Step s Summary: Kitsap County and Kitsap County Sheriff s Office (the County ) and the Corrections Officers Guild (the Guild ) executed Collective Bargaining Agreement KC-091-18 (CBA) on March 12, 2018. The CBA restructured the pay scale for Corrections Officers eliminating step 1 and subsequently moving all officers on step 1 at implementation to the prior step 2. This action has caused junior officers to receive step increases before more senior officers who were already on step 2 at the time of implementation of the updated pay scale. If the parties take no action, then three Corrections Officers will continue to leapfrog the next most senior Corrections Officer and attain higher wage steps at an earlier date until all Corrections Officers in question attain the top step of the pay scale. The parties desire to discontinue the leapfrogging that the current langrage n Article II, Section C.2.a creates and so agree to change the next step dates for the three Corrections Officers in question.

MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING By and Between KITSAP COUNTY And KITSAP COUNTY CORRECTIONS OFFICERS GUILD KC-091-18-B RE: Resetting Step Anniversary s for Four Corrections Officers This Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) is entered into by Kitsap County ( County ) and Kitsap County Corrections Officers Guild ( Guild ). The parties mutually agree to the following: Background On March 12, 2018, the parties entered into Collective Bargaining Agreement KC-091-18 ( CBA ). Article II, Section C.2.a of the CBA provides that a new top step will be added to the Corrections Officer pay scale, and the existing entry-level step will be eliminated, both effective the first full pay period in 2018. Article II, Section C.2.a.1 further provides that employees who are at the existing entrylevel step at the time the existing entry-level step is eliminated will move immediately into the new entry-level step and will thereafter move to the next step on the new salary schedule on their next anniversary date. Three Corrections Officers were impacted by Article II, Section C.2.a.1: 1. Officer Jakob Cissney 2. Officer Jacynda Vallejo 3. Officer Jasmine Oliver The result of the agreement in Article II, Section C.2.a.1 is that the three Corrections Officers impacted received the equivalent of two step increases (10%) in 2018. In addition, because all three Corrections Officers above have step anniversary dates earlier in the year than the next more senior Corrections Officer, all three Corrections Officers above attained the new Step Two (2) at an earlier date than the next more senior Corrections Officer, effectively leapfrogging the next more senior Corrections Officer. Officers Cissney, Vallejo, and Oliver currently have step anniversary dates on April 17, May 1, and May 22, respectively. By contrast, the next more senior Corrections Officer s current step anniversary date is November 28. KC-091-18-B 1
If the parties take no action, then the three Corrections Officers above will continue to leapfrog the next most senior Corrections Officer and attain higher wage steps at an earlier date until all Corrections Officers in question attain the top step of the pay scale. Agreement The parties desire to discontinue the leapfrogging that the current language in Article II, Section C.2.a creates. As such, the parties agree to the following: 1. Effective January 1, 2019, Officers Cissney, Vallejo, and Oliver shall have their step anniversary dates reset to November 29. 2. Officers Cissney, Vallejo, and Oliver shall not receive a step increase from the date of execution of this Memorandum of Understanding until November 29, 2019. 3. Step increases for Officers Cissney, Vallejo, and Oliver shall continue be subject to the provisions of Article II, Section C, excluding Section C.2.a.1. Except as expressly provided in this Memorandum of Understanding, all other terms and conditions of the parties original Contract, and subsequent amendments, addenda or modifications thereto, remain in full force and effect. Except as expressly provided herein, this Memorandum of Understanding shall be effective upon execution. KC-091-18-B 2
