Staff reported that the Committee was comprised of Executive Director Gary Stucky, Business Agent Marie Clark, Terry Barber of Child Support Services who represents the General Unit and Ray Hogan of Fleet Management who represents the Supervisorial Unit. The Committee is reviewing the different standards that an employee may be able to receive the Pay for Service with Distinction. Longevity and Incentive may need to be two different ways to receive PFSWD. Someone suggested that the money be put into deferred comp. Someone else thought that the Supervisors need to be trained on how to do an evaluation. There was discussion of how some Lead workers do supervisorial work, but do not have the title of Supervisor. They do the work, but are not paid the additional money for this work. Some employees have problems with Lead workers doing evaluations.
