In addition to the compensation authorized by Tucson Code Section 10-31, eligible fleet service employees trained and certified within the ASE program will receive a pay increase of fifty-seven cents ($.57) per hour for each certification obtained with a maximum of four (4) certifications per employee (two dollars and twenty-eight cents ($2.28) per hour) per year, while participating in the program.
(a) To receive ASE certifications, eligible fleet services employees must comply with all ASE requirements and re-test every five (5) years to maintain the certification. The city will pay the registration and testing fee(s) associated with each approved ASE certification or renewal.
(b) Eligible fleet service employees are responsible for tracking the expiration date(s) of their ASE certification(s). Loss of any ASE certification must immediately be reported to human resources.
