Summary

The council approved a resolution amending the municipal employee handbook so that employees called back to work receive callback pay regardless of holiday, vacation or sick pay during the same pay period.

The City of McCassel council unanimously approved a resolution amending the municipal employee handbook to clarify callback pay for employees called back to work.

A council member read the resolution, saying it modifies the handbook to resolve inconsistent language and to ensure that "if any employee is directed back to work on a callback ... the employee will be paid callback pay regardless of sick pay, holiday pay, and or vacation pay." The resolution authorizes the mayor, city clerk and department heads to take necessary action to implement the change.

The presenting council member said the change aligns the handbook with the council's intent and with utility-industry standards for callback pay. The council moved, seconded and approved the resolution by voice vote.
