(a) Plus Rates for Higher Skills. In any case where an employee is qualified for, and is temporarily required to serve regularly in and accept the responsibility for, work in a higher class of positions, such employee shall receive the entrance rate of that class or one step rate above his or her present rate, whichever is higher, while so assigned, subject to the approval of the City Manager. To qualify for a higher rate of pay, such temporary assignment to a higher class of position shall be regular and continuous in character for at least one full week. An employee may be temporarily assigned to the work of any position of the same or lower class grade without change in pay.
(Ord. 96-40. Passed 6-17-96.)
(b) Compensation for Supervisors. All Supervisors shall be paid at a higher rate than their subordinates. In the event that, because of difference in length of service, a supervisor is paid a rate of pay equal to or lower than one or more of his or her duly assigned subordinates, the supervisor shall be advanced to a step in his or her salary range which will provide him or her with a rate of pay one increment higher than any subordinate, regardless of the supervisor's length of service. For the purposes of this subsection, a City employee holding a current and valid professional license from the State of Illinois in law, architecture, engineering or accounting and performing such professional duties as part of his/her City employment shall not be considered a “subordinate.”
(c) Compensation of Temporary and Seasonal Employees. Temporary or seasonal employees occupying classified positions shall be employed initially at the hourly rate equivalent to the entrance rate in the range for the class in which employed. All employees working less than the full work year may be advanced in pay, based upon satisfactory service, to the higher rates in the grade for the class, except that only actual hours of work shall be considered in the computation of service requirements for such advancement. When the hourly equivalent of required periods of service has been attained, advancement to the higher step rates may be effected in accordance with Section 290.05. The accumulation of service toward advancement within a range shall continue unless interrupted by a period of absence from the City service of more than one year.
(d) Partial Compensation Received From Other Sources. In any case in which part of the compensation for services of any employee, exclusive of pay for overtime service, is paid by any outside agency or from private sources for work performed during normal duty hours, any such payments shall be deducted from the compensation prescribed for the position in this chapter to the end that the total cash compensation paid to any employee for regular full-time services from all sources combined for any period shall equal the amount prescribed in this chapter.
