The City agrees that representing Police Officers during investigative interviews,pre-disciplinary hearings,or related disciplinary matters furthers the business of the City.

In no event shall such activity exceed two (2)hours per week unless otherwise approved by the Chief. SLPA Local 75 Page 11 5. Association representatives will be held to the same standard of confidentiality in these matters as the City. Any discussion among Association representatives,Police Officers,and the City concerning settlement of items grieved will be privileged matters and may not be used for any other purpose by either party. 6. Association representatives may not delay,interfere with,or otherwise obstruct any lawful investigation conducted by the City in compliance with the terms and conditions of this MOU.A representative calling a temporary halt to an interview for the purpose of seeking a clarification or determination from the Department administration that the interview is being conducted in compliance with the terms and conditions of this MOU shall not be considered a violation of this Subparagraph.

The representative(s)may not be person(s)subject to the same investigation. 2.

SLPA Local 75 Page 12 ARTICLE 5- WAGES A. Wage Schedule 1. Effective June 24, 2012 to January 5, 2013, Police Officers shall be paid biweekly in accordance with the existing wage schedule in effect for Fiscal Year 2012 as set forth in Appendix "A" of this MOU. 2. Effective January 6, 2013 to June 22, 2013, Police Officers shall be paid biweekly in accordance with the new wage schedule as set forth in Appendix "B." The rate of pay will be determined by years of completed service with the SLCPD (except in the case of the year one pay rate which will require the completion of probation or completion of one year of service, whichever occurs later). In the event that an eligible employee's wage would be reduced as a result of the implementation of the new wage schedule, the eligible employee's wage will remain the same until they qualify for an increase under the criteria established for the new wage schedule. The City and Association agree to reopen this MOU for fiscal year 2014 to negotiate the wage schedule. 3. Wages will be based upon the top Police Officer wage rate ("Police Officer Rate"). Entry level wage will be sixty percent (60%) of the Police Officer Rate. Upon an eligible employee's completion of one (1) year of service with the SLCPD or completion of probation, whichever occurs later, the wage rate will be sixty-five percent (65%) of the Police Officer Rate. Upon an eligible employee's completion of two (2) years of service with the SLCPD, the wage rate will be seventy percent (70%) of the Police Officer Rate. Upon an eligible employee's completion of four(4) years of service with the SLCPD, the wage rate will be eighty percent (80%) of the Police Officer Rate. Upon an eligible employee's completion of six (6) years of service with the SLCPD, the wage rate will be ninety(90%) of the Police Officer Rate. Upon an eligible employee's completion of eight (8) years of service with the SLCPD, the wage rate will be one-hundred percent (100%) of the Police Officer Rate. These rates are reflected in column A in Appendix B. Those eligible employees working afternoons or graveyards will be paid on the same schedule as above but with afternoons paid the respective wage rate plus two and one-half percent (2.5%) and those working graveyards paid the respective wage rate plus five percent (5%). These rates are reflected in columns B & C in Appendix B. For the new wage schedule, completed years of service will be computed as of January 5, 2013 based upon a Police Officer's date of hire. A Police Officer may subsequently move to a higher pay rate during the effective dates of the new wage schedule in the event that the passage of his or her anniversary date results in the Police Officer completing the requisite number of completed years of service. SLPA Local 75 Page 13 4. Police Officers will be paid shift differential as follows: a. Police Officers,whose shifts begin from 0500 hours to 1159 hours, shall be paid in accordance with column"A"of the effective wage schedule. b. Police Officers,whose shifts begin from 1200 hours to 1859 hours, shall be paid in accordance with column`B"of the effective wage schedule. c. Police Officers,whose shifts begin from 1900 hours to 0459 hours, shall be paid in accordance with column"C"of the effective wage. 5. A Police Officer required to work in a position above his or her grade will be paid an hourly rate according to SLCPD policy while acting in that position. Such hourly pay rate will not be effective until the employee has worked in that position for forty(40)consecutive hours. At that time the hourly pay rate will be effective back to the first day worked in that position. 6. For Fiscal Year 2013 only,those eligible employees who are being paid the highest rate of pay on the Fiscal 2012 wage schedule,as of June 23,2012,will receive one(1)additional shift to use as a personal holiday during the course of the fiscal year.The personal holiday provided in this paragraph will be used during Fiscal Year 2013 or will be forfeited.This personal holiday will not count towards holiday carryover during calendar year 2012.Such personal holiday will not be included when computing overtime during the week in which they are taken. B. Career Path There shall be a Career Path incentive program for Police Officers based on the terms and conditions agreed to by the City and the Association. This program shall be funded for the term of this MOU. C. Longevity Pay Police Officers will be provided longevity pay according to the following schedule: 1. At the beginning of the seventh(7th)year of service,Police Officers shall receive a total monthly longevity benefit in the sum of Fifty Dollars($50). 2. At the beginning of the eleventh(11th)year of service,Police Officers shall receive a total monthly longevity benefit in the sum of Seventy-Five Dollars ($75). 3. At the beginning of the seventeenth(17th)year of service,Police Officers shall receive a total monthly longevity benefit in the sum of One Hundred Dollars ($100). 4. At the beginning of the twenty first(21st)year of service,Police Officers shall receive a total monthly longevity benefit in the sum of One Hundred Twenty Five Dollars($125). SLPA Local 75 Page 14 D. Years of Service For purposes of Police Officers'wage schedules,it is understood that Police Officers have an anniversary date reflecting the actual date they were hired by SLCPD. Police Officers who take a voluntary leave of absence or who either retire or resign from their employment but return to work within one(1)year as allowed by Civil Service Commission Rules shall have such time deducted from their years of service, resulting in an adjustment to their anniversary date. E. Lateral Entry 1. The City shall develop and implement a Lateral Entry Hiring Program for the position of Police Officer. This program will be administered by the City under guidelines prescribed by the Chief. 2. For the purposes of the wage schedules,Police Officers hired under the Lateral Entry Hiring Program will be granted the equivalent of years of completed service according to the terms of the program. Such years of service shall be included in the calculation of all leave time benefits,but shall not apply to the computation of longevity pay,departmental seniority,or for the calculation of short term disability benefits. F. Wage Structure It is the City and Association's intent and desire that this new structure represents the first phase in achieving a pay structure that accomplishes the following:reduction in the number of years to reach the top rate of pay;additional consolidation of the number of increases over the course of an eligible employee's career;and, development of objective minimum performance requirements to achieve salary increases. The City and Association agree to continue the negotiation of these issues in subsequent fiscal years,subject to mutual agreement and appropriation of necessary funds to accomplish these long-term goals. ARTICLE 6—HOURS OF SERVICE AND OVERTIME A. Fair Labor Standards Act The Fair Labor Standards Act and its regulations("FLSA")outline the City's legal obligations to pay minimum wages and overtime. This MOU enhances some of the City's legal obligations. If any provision of this MOU fails to comply with the FLSA or its regulations,that provision is void and the City will comply with the FLSA. The voided provision will not affect the rest of the MOU which will remain in full force and effect. B. Regular Work Week A Police Officer's normal work week,regardless of shift arrangements,will be forty (40)hours of work. This provision does not limit or prevent SLCPD from changing or SLPA Local 75 Page 15 establishing work shifts as the need arises or guarantee Police Officers forty(40)hours work per week. C. Change in Regular Days Off 1. SLCPD will not adjust a Police Officer's regular days off to meet one-time needs. 2. SLCPD may change a Police Officer's regular days off to meet the needs of regularly scheduled special events,such as,but not limited to,annual parades, conferences,and special holidays which require extra coverage. 3. SLCPD fails to give a Police Officer at least fourteen(14)calendar days prior notice of a change to the Police Officer's regular days off,the City will pay the Police Officer for all time worked at the regularly scheduled event at a rate of one and one-half times the Police Officer's regular rate of pay. D. Change in Scheduled Hours 1. SLCPD may change a Police Officer's scheduled shift hours to provide coverage if the schedule change is required due to the Police Officer's specific assignment. Any change made under this provision will not reduce the total number of hours a Police Officer would otherwise have worked during the workweek of the schedule change or reduce any call out pay that a Police Officer is entitled to receive. 2. If SLCPD fails to give a Police Officer at least four(4)calendar days prior notice of a change to the Police Officer's scheduled hours due to needs outside his or her specific assignment,the City will pay the Police Officer for all time worked during the shift at a rate of one and one-half times the Police Officer's regular rate of pay. 3. Each Police Officer shall be provided sixty(60)minutes of break/lunch time during each work shift;however,any break/lunch time shall be taken in accordance with operational needs of the department. There shall be no additional compensation to Police Officers who do not receive a break or lunch. 4. Break/lunch as defined in(3)above shall be taken in accordance with the following guidelines: a. If the Public Safety Dispatch office is not holding any priority one or two calls(as defined by SLCPD policy),Police Officers may check out for one(1)sixty(60)minute break/lunch. No more than one-third(1/3) of the total Police Officers assigned to and working in the field for that particular shift may be on a break/lunch at any one time. b. The Shift Supervisor,or Watch Commander if the Supervisor is not available,may authorize additional Police Officers to be on a break/lunch when conditions allow. SLPA Local 75 Page 16 c. Police Officers will remain in radio contact with the dispatch office while on break/lunch,and may be required to respond to calls under exigent circumstances. d. Calling Police Officers out of a break/lunch to respond to calls will be coordinated by the Shift Supervisor,who will determine the most expeditious method of responding under the circumstances. e. The Shift Supervisor may suspend breaks under exigent circumstances. E. Overtime Compensation 1. In order for Police Officers to receive compensation for time worked in excess of forty(40)hours per week,Police Officers must have prior approval from their supervisor to perform such work. Time worked that is required by the City is deemed to have received prior approval. 2. Police Officers required to perform work in excess of forty(40)hours per week shall be compensated by pay at one-and-one-half(1 %z)times their regular rate of pay. Police Officers may request compensatory time off in lieu of pay for overtime,and such compensatory time may be allowed subject to approval of the Division Commander. 3. Police Officers shall not accrue more than one hundred twenty(120)hours of compensatory time(or eighty(80)hours of actual overtime worked). Police Officers who have accrued one hundred twenty(120)hours of compensatory time off,shall,for additional overtime hours worked,be compensated with pay at one-and-one-half(1 %z)times the Police Officers'regular rate of pay. 4. Accrued compensatory time will not be revoked or forfeited. Accrued compensatory time will remain credited to Police Officers until such compensatory time is either used by the Police Officer purchased by the City. Provided,however,that if Police Officers have more than forty(40)hours of accrued compensatory time,any paid leave used by Police Officers thereafter shall be presumed to be accrued compensatory time rather than vacation, holidays,or other paid leave. F. Compensation for Court and Other Appearances 1. Police Officers shall be entitled to receive compensation for a court or administrative proceeding appearance as a witness subpoenaed by the City,the State of Utah,the United States or a party to a legal proceeding when the appearance is related to the Police Officer's official duties as follows: a. Court or administrative proceeding appearances made while on-duty shall constitute normal hours of work. b. In the event a court or administrative proceeding appearance extends beyond the end of a Police Officer's regularly scheduled shift,such time spent in court or in administrative proceedings will be treated as normal work time for the purpose of computing a Police Officer's overtime compensation. SLPA Local 75 Page 17 c. Court or administrative proceeding appearances made outside of a Police Officer's regularly scheduled shift will be compensated as follows: i. Police Officers shall be paid at the rate of one and one-half(1 1z) times their wage rate for two (2) hours of time spent while off- duty for preparation in conjunction with such court or administrative proceeding appearances; provided, however, that no Police Officer is authorized to, and shall not spend in excess of two (2) hours while off-duty in preparation for an appearance. ii.

Step 2 The Chief shall give a written answer to the Police Officer, or Association within fifteen (15) calendar days after receipt of the grievance. C. General Rules 1. The time limitations set forth in this Article are of the essence. The City, the Association, and the Police Officer (for disciplinary or procedural grievances) may mutually agree to extend the time limits in writing. No grievance shall be accepted by the City unless it is submitted within the time limits set forth in this Article unless mutually agreed to in writing. 2. If the Association or Police Officer does not timely submit a grievance to the next step, the grievance shall be deemed to have been settled in accordance with the City's answer at the last step. If the City fails to answer within the time limits set forth in this Article, the grievance shall automatically proceed to the next step. 3.

B. Selection of Arbitrator 1. Within ten (10) calendar days after the Association or the Police Officer serves the City with such written notice the City, the Association, and the Police Officer shall jointly request the American Arbitration Association, the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service or any other similar agency to furnish to the City, the Association, and the Police Officer a list of seven (7) qualified and impartial arbitrators.
