regular rate of pay. Such pay shall be paid or credited to the employee's compensatory
time off balance at the discretion of the Department Head or designee.
Acting assignments are not intended to exceed six (6) months unless extraordinary
circumstances warrant an extension as recommended and approved by the Human
Resources Director. Under no circumstances shall an acting assignment exceed (1)
one year nor shall it be considered a reclassification or a promotion Employees on acting
assignment obtain no property rights in the acting assignment and may be returned to
their regular position at any time.

outlined in this Article.
When the City grants an employee leave without pay for reason of medical
disability, the City shall continue to contribute its share of the employee's
insurance premiums, pursuant to Article X.B.2. for the time the employee is in a
non -pay status for the length of said leave not to exceed twenty-four (24) months.
The City shall provide timely written notification of employee rights under this

the primary coverage, and the City liability begins after the limitations of the employee's coverage is
exhausted.

EXHIBIT D — RETIREE MEDICAL SUBSIDY PLAN
Note: The above payment amounts may be reduced each month as dependent eligibility
ceases due to death, divorce or loss of dependent child status. However, the amount shall not
be reduced if such reduction would cause insufficient funds needed to pay the full premium for
the employee and the remaining dependents. In the event no reduction occurs and the
remaining benefit premium is not sufficient to pay the premium amount for the employee and the
eligible dependents, said needed excess premium amount shall be paid by the employee.
H. Medicare:
1. All persons are eligible for Medicare coverage at age sixty-five (65). Those
with sufficient credit quarters of Social Security will receive Part A of
Medicare at no cost. Those without sufficient credited quarters are still
eligible for Medicare at age sixty five (65), but will have to pay for Part A of
Medicare if the individual elects to take Medicare. In all cases, Part B of
Medicare is paid for by the participant.
2. When a retiree and his/her spouse are both sixty-five (65) or over, and
neither is eligible for paid Part A of Medicare, the subsidy shall pay for Part
A for each of them or the maximum subsidy, whichever is less.
Cancellation:
When a retiree at age sixty-five (65) is eligible for paid Part A of Medicare
and his/her spouse is not eligible for paid Part A, the spouse shall not
receive subsidy. When a retiree at age sixty-five (65) is not eligible for paid
Part A of Medicare and his/her spouse who is also age sixty-five (65) is
eligible for paid Part A of Medicare, the subsidy shall be for the retiree's
Part A only.
For retirees/dependents eligible for paid Part A of Medicare, the following
cancellation provisions apply:
Coverage for a retiree under the Retiree Medical Subsidy Plan will
be eliminated on the first day of the month in which the retiree
reaches age sixty-five (65). If such retiree was covering dependents
under the Plan, dependents will be eligible for COBRA continuation
benefits effective as of the retiree's sixty-fifth (651h) birthday.
Dependent coverage will be eliminated upon whichever of the
following occasions comes first:
1) After thirty six (36) months of COBRA continuation coverage,
or
2) When the covered dependent reaches age sixty-five (65) and
in the event such dependent reaches age sixty-five (65) prior
to the retiree reaching age sixty-five (65).

EXHIBIT E 9/80 WORK SCHEDULE
9/80 WORK SCHEDULE
This work schedule is known as the "9/80." The 9/80 work schedule is designed to be in
compliance with the requirements of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). In the event that
there is a conflict with the current rules, practices and/or procedures regarding work schedules
and leave plans, then the rules listed below shall govern.
9/80 Work Schedule Defined
The 9/80 work schedule shall be defined as working nine (9) days for eighty (80) hours in a two
(2) week pay period by working eight (8) days at nine (9) hours per day and working one (1) day
for eight (8) hours, with a scheduled unpaid lunch break during each work shift, totaling forty
(40) hours in each FLSA workweek. The 9/80 work schedule shall not reduce service to the
public, departmental effectiveness, productivity and/or efficiency as determined by the City
Manager or designee.
A. The FLSA workweek for each employee on a 9/80 schedule shall begin and end four (4)
hours into that employee's regularly scheduled shift on the day of the week that the
employee alternatively works an eight (8) hour shift and takes off. For example,
employees on a 9/80 schedule who are assigned to the Civic Center shall have an FLSA
workweek that starts and ends four (4) hours into the employee's regularly scheduled
shift each Friday, as these employees may only have 9/80 schedules that provide for
alternating Fridays off with working eight (8) hour days on Fridays. Employees may only
take their lunch break on their eight (8) hour day after first having worked four (4) hours
in that shift, unless the employee receives prior approval of their Supervisor, as overtime
may occur in such situations.
B. Two (2) Week Pay Period — The pay period for employees starts Friday mid -shift (P.M.)
and continues for fourteen (14) days until Friday mid -shift (A.M.). During this period,
each week is made up of four (4) nine (9) hour workdays totaling (thirty-six (36) hours)
and one (1) four (4) hour Friday and those hours equal forty (40) work hours in each
workweek (e.g. the Friday is split into four (4) hours for the A.M. shift, which is charged
to workweek one and four (4) hours for the P.M. shift, which is charged to workweek
two).
C. A/B Schedules — To continue to provide service to the public every Friday, employees
on a 9/80 schedule assigned to the Civic Center, are to be divided between two
schedules, known as the "A" schedule and the "B" schedule, based upon the
departmental needs. For identification purposes, the "A" schedule shall be known as the
schedule with a day off on the Friday in the middle of the pay period, or, "off on payday",
the "B" schedule shall have the first Friday (P.M.) and the last Friday (A.M.) off, or
"working on payday." An example is listed below:

MUNICIPAL EMPLOYEES' ASSOICATION
EXHIBIT E 9/80 WORK SCHEDULE
D. Schedule Changes — FLSA non-exempt employees cannot change their _assigned
schedules, without prior approval of their Supervisor, Department Head, and the Human
Resources Director or designee. The purpose of this authorization is to review the
impact on overtime. FLSA exempt employees may change their schedules at the
beginning of any pay period with Supervisor and Department Head approval.
E. Emergencies — All employees on the 9/80 work schedule are subject to be called to
work any time to meet any and all emergencies or unusual conditions which, in the
opinion of the City Manager, Department Head or designee may require such service
from any of said employees.
Overtime Defined
FLSA Non -Exempt Employees — All non-exempt employees under the 9/80 work schedule shall
earn overtime for all hours worked after the first forty (40) hours in their designated FLSA
workweek as required under FLSA. Employees are required to obtain Supervisor authorization
prior to working any overtime.
1. Overtime Compensation — As stated in Article IX.B.
2. Compensatory Time — As stated in Article IX.B.
Leave Benefits
When an employee is off on a scheduled workday under the 9/80 work schedule, then nine (9)
hours of eligible leave per workday shall be charged against the employee's leave balance or
eight (8) hours shall be charged if the day off is a Friday. All leaves shall continue under the
current accrual, eligibility, request and approval requirements.
1. General Leave — As stated in Article XI I.A.1.
2. Sick Leave — As stated in Article XII.A.3.
3. Bereavement Leave— As stated in Article XII.A.4.
4. Holidays
a. If a holiday falls on an FLSA non-exempt employee's flex day off, the employee
must then take the work shift before or after the holiday off with their Supervisor
and Department Head approval. If the employee cannot take the work shift
before or after the holiday off, the employee will be credited General Leave with
the number of hours of the employee's regularly scheduled work shift.
b. If a holiday falls on an FLSA exempt employee's flex day off, the employee must
then take the work shift before or after the holiday off with Supervisor and
Department Head approval. FLSA exempt employees shall not be granted any
Administrative/General Leave or any added compensation for not taking a work
shift off on a scheduled holiday.
5. Jury Duty - The provisions of the Personnel Rules shall continue to apply, however, if an
FLSA exempt employee is called to serve on jury duty during a the employee's flex day
off, Saturday or Sunday or on a City holiday, then the jury duty shall be considered the
same as having occurred during the employee's day off from work; therefore, the
employee will receive no added compensation.

4/10 WORK SCHEDULE
This work schedule is known as the "4/10" work schedule. The 4/10 work schedule is designed
to be in compliance with the requirements of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). In the event

EXHIBIT G — AGENCY SHOP AGREEMENT
AGENCY SHOP AGREEMENT
Legislative Authority
The City of Huntington Beach (City) and the Huntington Beach Municipal Employees
Association (Association) mutually understand and agree that in accordance with State of
California law, per adoption of SB 739 (specifically, Government Code Section 3502.5), the
Association will be covered by an Agency Shop. As a result of this Agency Shop Agreement
between the City and the Association, and as a condition of continued employment, this Agency
Shop Agreement hereby requires that all bargaining unit employees represented by the
Association:
1. Elect to join the Association and pay Association Dues;
2. Pay an Agency Fee for representation;
3. Or with a Religious exemption, pay a fee equal to the Agency Fee to be donated
to selected charities.
The following Agency Shop Agreement will be implemented in conformity with California
Government Code Section 3502.5 and applicable law and will be incorporated into any
successor Memorandum of Understanding entered into between City and Association, unless
rescinded pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
Association Dues/Agency Fee Collection
Effective July 31, 2004, the City shall deduct Association Dues, Agency Fee and Religious
Exemption Fees from all employees who have signed a written authorization, and a copy of that
authorization has been provided to the Human Resources Director at least three weeks before
that date. The authorization shall indicate whether Association Dues, Agency Fee or Religious
Exemption Fees shall be deducted and shall be jointly developed by the City and the
Association. Employees who do not sign the written authorization, or whose written
authorization is not provided to the Human Resources Director at least three weeks before the
beginning of the pay period when deductions under this Agency Shop Agreement are to begin,
shall be subject to the Agency Fee deduction. Employees on leave without pay or employees
who earn a salary less than the Association deduction shall not have Association Dues, Agency
Fee, or Religious Exemption Fees deducted for that pay period.
The Agency Fee is a fee equal to direct representation costs as determined by the Association's
certified financial report. The Association shall notify the Human Resources Director of the
amount of the Association Dues and the Agency Fee to be deducted from the unit members'
paychecks three weeks prior to the date of the first deduction and then once per year thereafter
by September 1st, for implementation in the first full pay period beginning in October of each
year.
New Hire Notification
Effective July 31, 2004, all new hires in the bargaining unit shall be informed by the Human
Resources Director or designee, at the time of hire, that an Agency Shop Agreement is in effect
for their classification, by providing a copy of this Agreement, the Memorandum of
Understanding and a form, mutually developed between the City and the Association that
outlines the employee's choices under the Agency Shop Agreement. The employee shall be
provided thirty (30) calendar days from the date of hire to elect their choice and provide a signed
copy of that choice to the Human Resources Director. Deductions under this Agency Shop

Agreement for new hires will start with the first full payroll period beginning thirty (30) days after
the new hire submits his/her selection to the Human Resources Director. The Association may
request to meet with new hires at a time and place mutually agreed upon between the City and
the Association.
Failure To Pay Dues/Fees
All unit employees who choose not to become members of the Association or resign from
Association membership shall be required to pay to the Association a representation service fee
(the Agency Fee referenced in this Agency Shop Agreement) that represents such employee's
proportionate share of the Association's cost of legally authorized representation services on
behalf of unit employees in their relations with the City. Such Agency Fee shall in no event
exceed the regular, periodic membership dues paid by unit employees who are members of the
Association. Unit employees who change their status (from Association member to Agency Fee
payer or to Religious exemption, or vice -versa) after the effective date of this Agency Shop
Agreement shall be subject to the terms of the changed status with the first full pay period
beginning thirty (30) days or more after the employee informs the Human Resources Director of
the change in writing on a form to be jointly developed by the City and the Association.
Religious Exemption
Any employee who is a member of a religious body whose traditional tenets or teachings
include objections to joining or financially supporting employee organizations shall not be
required to pay an Agency Fee, but shall pay by means of mandatory payroll deduction an
amount equal to the Agency Fee to a non -religious, non -labor charitable organization exempt
from taxation under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Those fees shall be
remitted by the Association to any of the non -labor, non -religious charitable organizations
offered by the Association for this purpose, at the choice of the employee.
To qualify for the Religious exemption the employee must provide to the Association a written
statement of objection, along with verifiable evidence of membership in a religious body as
described above. The City will implement the change in status, with the first full pay period
beginning thirty (30) days or more after the employee submits the appropriate form to the City to
change his/her status, unless notified by the Association in writing that the requested exemption
is not valid. The City shall not be made a party to any dispute arising relative to the
determination of Religious exemptions.
Records
The Association shall keep an adequate itemized record of its financial transactions and shall
make a written financial report thereof, in the form of a balance sheet certified as to accuracy by
its president and treasurer or corresponding principal officer, or by a certified public accountant,
available annually, to the City, to Agency Fee payers and to unit members who elect the
Religious exemption relating to this Agency Shop Agreement, within 60 days following the end
of its fiscal year.
All forms submitted by an employee to the City, or by the Association on behalf of an employee,
shall be retained by the City in the employee's personnel file.
The Human Resources Director or designee shall provide the Association a list of all unit
members with dues paying status with each Association Dues check remitted to the
Association. This list and the Association Dues shall be submitted by the City to the Association
within three weeks of each pay period.

The election shall be by secret ballot and conducted by California State Mediation and
Conciliation and in accordance with state law.

and liabilities as a result of implementing and maintaining this Agency Shop Agreement.

Association shall be required to maintain their membership in the Association in good standing,
subject however, to the right to resign from membership no sooner than April 15 or later than
May 15, of any year this Agreement remains in effect. Any unit member may exercise the right
to resign by submitting a written notice to the Association and to the City during the resignation
period on the Deduction Authorization/Change in Status form. The change in deductions from
the employee's payroll will be effective with the first full pay period beginning thirty (30) days or
more after the Human Resources Director receives the employee's written notice.
The City and the Association agree that neither shall discriminate nor retaliate against any
employee for the employee's participation or non -participation in any Association activity.
Payroll Deduction
Effective July 31, 2004, the City will deduct from each paycheck of unit employees, and remit to the
Association, the normal and regular Association Dues and Agency Fees, in the timelines described
as voluntarily authorized in writing by the employee, subject to the following conditions:
(1) Such deductions shall be made only upon submission of a Deduction
Authorization/Change in Status form to the Human Resources Director. Said form
shall be duly completed and signed by the employee. If no form is completed by the
employee, the employee shall be subject to the Agency Fee.
(2) The City shall not be obligated to put into effect any new, changed or discontinued
deduction until the first full pay period commencing thirty (30) days or longer after such
submission.
Every effort will be made by the City to remit dues to the Association within three (3)
weeks of receipt. The Association agrees to indemnify and hold the City harmless
against any and all suits, claims, demands and liabilities that may arise out of, or by
reason of, any action that shall be taken by the City for the purpose of complying with
this Section.
