June 4, 1987 Mr. Richard Barnard Assistant to City Administrator CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH 2000 Main Street ...0. Box 190 Huntington Beach, CA 92648 Dear Rich: The following is an overview of the Buck -A -Day Program. Buck -A -Day emphasizes employee participation and individual recognition. While the Buck-A-D.y Program focuses on cost reduction, the positive employee attitudes that BAD produces are also important to the City. This improves not only employee morale, but also the services delivered to the public. "There are five (5) phases to the 30 day Program: Interest, Awar_ness, Participation, Recognition, and Follow -Through. 1. Interest: X "Teaser Week" sets the stage for the program. Graphics carrying the theme "Join the BAD Guys" tease the employee interest level so they want to know what BAD is all about. 2. Awareness: The :idea is to make the employee aware that he/she does have an impact on costs in his/her own work area. 3. Participation: While the program is completely voluntary, the key objective is to instill a cost consciousness within all city employees. Nationally, the average participation rate of BAD is 600 - 800. 4. Recognition: BAD lets employees know their ideas are important. Those who participate will receive symbolic awards to show they have joined the campaign against rising costs. Posters and newsletters are used to publicize individual effort. 5. Follow -Through: A detailed implementation plan is included in the BAU Program to make sure all ideas are acted on. Unlike some conventional suggestion systems, the employee does not receive a "rejection" slip if his/her idea is not used. - 1 101 LARKSPUR LANDING CIRCLE EXHIBIT iIBIT A LARKSPUR, CALIFORNIA 94939 Richard Barnard June 4, 1987 Page 2 The Buck -A -Day Program includes all graphics, record systems, letters, and rewards required to make it a success.
