Fire & Rescue Operations Department employees shall be paid bi-weekly with every other Friday being designated as payday. Paychecks shall be distributed to the station or office of the member's choice on a continuous basis, subject to change only due to a transfer of assignment or change of home address.
In the event that an error has occurred which results in a substantial shortage in the employee's pay and the amount owed is not in dispute, then a special check shall be prepared immediately so that the employee receives his full pay when due.
If a minor error is made in an employee's pay, it shall be corrected no later than the next paycheck. If not corrected on the next paycheck, then a voucher shall be issued immediately to correct the error, providing the employee so requests.
In the event that a holiday falls on a payday, the employees shall receive their paycheck on the day prior to the holiday. When the Friday payday falls in the week of Thanksgiving, the employees shall receive their paychecks on the Wednesday prior to the Thanksgiving holiday.
