BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
TO: Board of County Commissioners
FROM: Philip Morley, County Administrator
Erin Lundgren, Clerk of the Board
DATE: January 13, 2020
SUBJECT: MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT (MOA)re: Amending Appendix B—
Classifications of the UFCW Collective Bargaining Agreement, and Implementing Pay
Equity Adjustments for Certain UFCW job classifications for 2019 and 2020 Based on
the Results of the Total Compensation Study Conducted by Cabot Dow
STATEMENT OF ISSUE:
The UFCW Collective Bargaining Agreement, Appendix B - Classifications needs to be amended, and pay
equity adjustments need to be made for certain UFCW represented job classifications that were identified in
the recent Total Compensation Study as being the most severely out of range with similar jobs in our
comparable counties.
ANALYSIS:
Jefferson County initiated a Total Compensation Study project to compare the total compensation of job
classifications in Jefferson County with similar job classifications in its seven comparable counties to help
identify job classifications where the greatest inequities exist. The Total Compensation Study was complete
in December 2018 for implementation in January 2019, however implementation of the pay adjustments was
temporarily delayed pending negotiations with the UFCW bargaining unit for their union represented job
classifications. The negotiations with the bargaining unit have now reached conclusion. The attached
Memorandum of Agreement(MOA) was agreed to by employees represented by UFCW and the union
approved the MOA on January 6, 2020.
FISCAL IMPACT:
In 2019, the County set aside $40,000 of budgeted funding to make a first set of equity adjustments for those
job classifications most behind our comparable counties. In the 2020-2021 Biennial Budget the County has
been able to carve out funding for a second set of equity adjustments that further closes the pay equity gap.
These adjustments to job classifications will positively affect 48 UFCW represented employees.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve and sign the Memorandum of Agreement.
