Human Resources <br />Cabarrus County <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />To.' <br /> <br />From: <br /> <br />Date: <br /> <br />Subject: <br /> <br />Frank Clifton, County Manager <br /> <br />Don CummingS' <br /> <br />November 14, 2000 <br /> <br />BOC Request - Military Leave Recommendations <br /> <br />At the October 16, 2000 Board of Commissioners meeting I was asked to provide a recommendation <br />regarding additional compensation for employees who also serve in the National Guard or a Military <br />Reserve unit and are activated for an extended Period of duty. <br /> <br />I contacted various counties and cities requesting information on their policies. Most have identical <br />or similar policies to ours. None provide additional compensation outside of the time normally <br />needed for monthly and summer training. <br /> <br />Additional research indicates the County is in compliance with current laws relating to Guard and <br />Military service. However, a couple of questions surfaced which may impact our policy. I will <br />follow up and come back to you and the Board if necessary. <br /> <br />At this time there are two (2) County employees covered by the policy. A copy of the Personnel <br />Ordinance, Article VI, Section 27. Military Leave is attached for reference. <br /> <br />I recommend the current policy be maintained. The Board may address the activation impact on <br />employees if and when it occurs. Consideration of the number of employees activated, expected <br />length of the activation, cost of replacement employees, actual pay difference involved, etc. could be <br />reviewed and acted upon in the best interest of the County and the activated employees. <br /> <br />I am available if additional information is needed. <br /> <br /> <br />
