The City Manager may grant <br />emergency administrative leave with pay and lor after the occurrence of a disaster, <br />whether natural or man-made. Implementation of this Emergency Pay Policy would ensure <br />a uniform and equitable pay system is in place to both exempt and non-exempt employees <br />who are required to work. <br /> <br />The City of La Porte Employee Polices Handbook should be amended to include The <br />Emergency Pay Policy in Section III, Compensation and Benefits as item #12. <br /> <br />This policy was approved by City Manager before hurricane to ensure (1) employees well <br />protected and granted hazard incentives to work the event and (2) documentation was in <br />order to be eligible for FEMA reimbursement during disaster times. Information for this <br />policy was solicited from other cities and customized by the executive team to best fit our <br />needs. <br /> <br />Action Required by Council: <br /> <br />Ratify the Emergency Pay Policy, retroactive to effective date of 9/21/2005. <br /> <br />Ju~Q~ cl003-:.l.t..t'i?t! ~ <br /> <br />J.) ---f? ~ ,20() 3 <br /> <br />APJj;1;;;g;J;; dL- <br /> <br />Debra B.
