Personnel Committee delays changes to paternity, comp time and holiday pay; explores fitness membership assistance
Summary
HR staff told the Zeeland Personnel Committee on March 12 they are not recommending changes to paternity leave, compensation time, or holiday pay after a market review; the committee asked staff to return with formal recommendations and additional options for fitness membership assistance, possibly leveraging Zeeland Recreation discounts.
HR Specialist Hellenthal told the Personnel Committee March 12 that after contacting comparable organizations the administrative team is not inclined to recommend changes to paternity leave, compensation time, or holiday pay at this time. The committee raised no formal objections and staff said they will bring a formal recommendation to a future meeting if circumstances change.
Hellenthal also said staff had received a request to consider some type of assistance for employee fitness memberships and presented a brief overview of possible options. Committee members asked staff to gather additional information for further consideration; Mayor VanDorp noted Zeeland Recreation might consider offering discounts to city employees if the city moves forward with a membership-support policy.
City Manager Klunder told the committee HR Specialist Hellenthal has been working on market salary-range data and that formal salary-range recommendations will be presented at the April Personnel Committee meeting.
The committee adjourned at 12:39 PM.
