SECTION 1: Basic Compensation Plan.
All employees of the City of Cypress, except the City Manager, City Attorney,
City Treasurer, Department Heads, Division Heads, Administrative Assistants,
Administrative Aides, and temporary and seasonal employees, are included in a
Basic Compensation Plan. Every position under this plan shall be assigned a
Range Number established by the City Council in the annual budget or appropriate
resolution. This Range Number shall be as shown on the salary schedule des-
cribed in Section 2 below. The salary schedule shall consist of five (5) steps
within each range, except when otherwise specified.
(a)
The first step is the minimum rate and is normally the hiring rate
for the class, An employee may be assigned, upon appointment, to
other than the normal entering salary step upon the recommendation
of the City Manager when it is decided that such action is in the
best interests of the City.
(b) The second step is an adjustment which may be given at the end of
the employee's probationary period, except for Police Officers, who
shall be eligible for the second step at the completion of the six
month period, if recommended by the Department Head, Other employees
are eligible for this adjustment after the completion of six months
of service at the first step. The adjustment shall be made only, if
recommended by the Department Head, and, if approved by the City
Manager: Such approval by the City Manager signifies that the employee,
other than a Police Officer, is considered a permanent City employee.
(c)
The third, fourth and fifth steps are incentive adjustments to
encourage an employee to improve his work and to recognize seniority
and increased skill on the job, Employees are normally eligible for
these adjustments any time after the completion of one year of service
at the preceding step. Each adjustment shall be made only, if recommended
by the Department Head,and, if approved by the City Manager,
(d) All rates shown are in full payment for services rendered and cover
full payment for the number of hours now being regularly worked in
each class. Employees engaged for less than full-time shall be paid
a proportionate part of these salaries, or by an hourly rate of pay
that falls within these ranges.
(e) The comprehensive wage and salary plan, as outlined herein, is based
on a forty (40) hour work week for all full-time employees.
