Part II. Administration of Pay Plan.
Sec. 1. Official rates of pay: The official rates of pay listed in all sections of this ordinance except Part 1, Sec. 23 are the biweekly rates listed therein. In Part 1, Sec. 23, 24, 25 and 26, the official rates of pay are either hourly or daily rates, as specified with the exception of Pay Ranges 925, 934, 936, 951 and 955 where the official rates of pay are biweekly. Other rates of pay, such as monthly or annual, listed in any section of this ordinance are for informational purposes only.
Sec. 2. Appointments, Salary Advancement, Salary Anniversary Dates
Appointment at Minimum: Appointment to City positions shall be at the minimum rate in the scale except as otherwise provided by Part II, Section 2, 3, and 12 of this Ordinance.
Salary Advancement-Nonmanagment employees: Salary advancement above the rate of initial appointment shall be made at the next higher rate upon the completion of each year of service at that particular rate until the maximum rate is received, except as provided in Part II, Sec. 12, Sec. 14 or as specified below.
Timing of Salary Advancement - Nonmanagement Employees: In order to eliminate two rates of pay for the same officer or employee in any period and to reduce and simplify payroll preparation and the auditing thereof, salary advancement within any pay range shall follow the completion of 26 biweekly pay periods and not the precise anniversary date. For the purpose of determining the proper time for the initiation of salary advancements, appointments during a pay period shall be considered as having been made at the beginning of such period.
Department heads are directed insofar as possible to make appointments effective at the beginning of a biweekly pay period. Absence or absences from work without pay for any cause for 10 or more work days in the aggregate shall defer salary advancement for one additional pay period for each such 10 days' absence.
Appointment to a New or Reclassified Position: Appointment of a person in the service of the City to a new position or a reclassified position who has received the same rate of pay for at least one year shall be at the salary increment next above the rate currently received but not in excess of the maximum of the scale, except as may be provided in Part II, Sec. 12 of this ordinance.
Increases in Salary Ranges: When the salary range for a position is increased in conjunction with an across-the-board adjustment, the incumbent shall receive the step in the adjusted salary range that is equivalent to the step previously received.
Hourly Employees - Job Change: Whenever an employee in a position compensated on an hourly basis is appointed, transferred, or reinstated to a position the salary of which is determined under this ordinance, the amount of earnings in the twelve month period immediately preceding such appointment, transfer, or reinstatement shall be calculated. The rate of pay in the new position shall be the increment in the scale next above the amount of the employee's earnings for said period, but not in excess of the maximum increment in said scale.
Hourly Employees - Rates of Pay - Salary Advancement: Payrolls for positions with an official hourly rate listed in Part I, Sec. 23, 24, 25 and 26 shall be based upon the number of hours or days employees are actually employed. Salary advancement above the rate at initial appointment shall be made at the next higher rate upon the completion of each year of service unless otherwise indicated in a footnote within the specific pay range at that particular rate until the maximum rate is received.
Promotion or Reallocation Pay Increase: Appointment or promotion of an officer or employee to a higher level classification or reallocation to a higher level pay range shall be at the pay rate in the new pay range that is at least $10 more biweekly than the employee was receiving except as provided in Part II, Sec. 12 of this ordinance. In those instances where the next higher pay rate (step) is less than $10.00 biweekly higher than the employee was receiving, the next step above the higher pay rate (step) shall be paid.
Salary Anniversary Date:
• All nonmanagement employees who are not at the maximum of their pay range will retain their salary anniversary date when they are promoted or reallocated to a higher level pay range.
• All nonmanagement employees who are at the maximum of their pay range will receive a new salary anniversary date when promoted or reallocated to a higher-level nonmanagement pay range. This new salary anniversary date shall be based upon the effective date of such appointment, promotion, or reallocation.
• Employees promoted into job titles contained in the Management Pay Plan (Part I, Sec. 2 of the Salary Ordinance) shall retain their previous salary anniversary date.
Combining Pay Rates into the City's System: Whenever a pay rate in prior salary ranges is not included in salary ranges established in this ordinance, the salary of the officer or employee compensated thereunder shall be advanced to the next higher pay rate in the range established under this ordinance or under previous ordinances as set forth in Part II, Sec. 9.
Minimum Rate of Pay: The salary of an officer or employee receiving less than the minimum of the salary range established in this ordinance shall be advanced to the minimum step of the range unless specifically authorized otherwise.
Sec. 3. Recruitment Above the Minimum: To recruit qualified persons, appointment of a person to a position may be at a rate above the minimum rate within the established pay range provided it is determined by the Common Council that such rate is necessary and provided there is a footnote authorizing it. Otherwise a recruitment study request must be made to the Department of Employee Relations to determine the appropriate pay range necessary to recruit qualified candidates. With regard to positions covered by Part I, Sec. 2 of this Salary Ordinance, salary rates shall be in accordance with special provisions included in that section and in Part II, Sec.12 (for management) or Sec. 14 (for Assistant City Attorneys) of this ordinance.
Public Health Nurses and Public Health Nurse Supervisor: Any person who has held, by regular appointment, a position in the City service classified as Public Health Nurse, or Public Health Nurse Supervisor, has resigned in good standing from the service, and meets the criteria listed below, may upon recommendation of the appointing authority, be re-employed in such position or in another position of the same classification at a pay step above the minimum rate of the established pay range. The pay step may not, however, be higher than one pay step above the current recruitment step which the individual would be eligible for on the basis of the time they previously worked in positions in the same pay range. The criteria for being paid this higher rate is 1) determination by the Department of Employee Relations that there are recruitment problems for such position due to the shortage of qualified personnel and 2) in the judgement of the Department of Employee Relations, supported by a review of the employment history of the individual, such re-employment above the minimum rate would best serve the interests of the City.
Candidates with Masters' Degrees: Except as otherwise provided in this ordinance, any qualified candidate for appointment to a City position allocated to Salary Grades 001 through 003 and Pay Ranges 500 through 535, which requires for appointment possession of a bachelor's degree from a school approved by the Department of Employee Relations, who possesses a master's degree, may upon review of the appropriateness of graduate training by the Department of Employee Relations be initially employed at the third rate of the pay range (or 10% above the minimum for positions in Salary Grade 001 through 003), upon approval of the Department of Employee Relations. Any incumbent of a City position allocated to Salary Grades 001 through 003 and Pay Ranges 500 through 535 requiring for appointment the possession of a bachelor's degree from a school approved by the Department of Employee Relations may, upon earning a master's degree from such an approved school and approval of the Department of Employee Relations after a review of the appropriateness of graduate training, be advanced to that step or rate of pay in the pay range or salary grade to which the employee would otherwise have been entitled had initial appointment been at the third rate of the pay range or 10% above the minimum of the salary grade. Such employees shall retain their salary anniversary dates.
Sec. 4. Voluntary Demotions and Demotions Resulting from Bumping for Year Round Positions: Whenever an employee (except those in bargaining units having different seniority and layoff contract provisions from the District Council 48 bargaining unit) is bumped down, or elects to take a voluntary demotion to another position in anticipation of being bumped, from positions which have traditionally provided year-round employment, the employee shall be paid at the normal maximum rate of the position the employee bumps to if this rate is not higher than the rate the employee was paid prior to being bumped.
If the maximum rate of the position the employee bumps to is higher than the rate the employee had been earning, the employee shall be paid the highest rate in the new pay range which does not exceed the rate the employee had been earning.
An employee who elects to take a position in a pay range which has special attainment steps, who meets the qualifications prescribed, or who would have qualified for them on the date the appropriate contract became effective, shall be paid the appropriate step.
In no event shall the employee, by application of this provision, be paid in excess of the rate the employee was earning prior to the reduction unless otherwise authorized.
When an employee who has been bumped to another position as specified in this paragraph is appointed to a different position, the employee shall be paid at least the highest step or rate of pay in the new range which does not exceed the step or rate of pay from which the employee had initially been bumped.
Whenever an employee in a year-round position, other than those affected by the layoff procedure specified in the above paragraph, compensated in accordance with this ordinance is appointed, transferred, demoted, or reinstated to a position at a lower rate of pay, the employee shall receive the step or rate of pay in the pay range which represents the number of years the employee has served in the position to which the employee has been appointed and in positions which are compensated at the same or a higher rate of pay.
Seasonal Employees - Job Change - Pay Rate: Whenever an employee in a position of a seasonal or part-time nature but compensated on a biweekly basis is appointed, transferred, demoted, or reinstated to a position compensated at the same or at a lower rate of pay, the employee shall be compensated in accordance with the employee's years of service for the City in positions which are compensated at the same or a higher rate of pay.
Recall to a Different, Higher-Level Position: Notwithstanding any of the above, when an employee, except those in bargaining units having different seniority and layoff contract provisions from the District Council 48 bargaining unit, who has been reduced in rank from a position the employee previously held, is recalled to a job classification in a pay level above the employee's current position but lower than the pay level of the original position, the employee will be paid at a rate nearest the rate paid in the original position.
In no event shall the employee, by application of this clause, be paid in excess of the rate of pay the employee was earning prior to the employee's reduction unless otherwise authorized. The above paragraph will not apply to laborers and other related positions now covered by the Time-in-Grade rules for positions affected by seasonal fluctuations.
Employees Covered by Bargaining Units Other than District Council 48: An employee in a bargaining unit having different seniority and layoff contract provisions from the District Council 48 bargaining unit shall be covered by the provisions of the employee's union's specific contract.
Budgeted Amount for a Position Versus Salary Ordinance: In case of a variation between the amount of money set up in the budget for a particular position and the amount an incumbent of a position would normally receive under the terms of this ordinance, the employee shall be paid according to the terms of this ordinance.
Sec. 5. Work Schedules, Holiday Pay
Starting and Ending Day - Permanent Employees: Employment shall normally be started on the first working day of the week and not on Saturdays, Sundays, or holidays and compensation shall be effective from the first work day. Termination of service shall be effective on the last day of work or the last working day of the week and not on Saturdays, Sundays, or holidays except where it is absolutely necessary for said employees to work on such days and except that in cases of City employees shifting from one City position to another, employment shall be deemed to be continuous and there shall be no interruption of compensation.
Starting and Ending Day - Seasonal Employees: In positions of a seasonal or temporary nature, employment shall normally be started on Mondays, Tuesdays, or Wednesdays and not on Thursdays or Fridays, and services terminated on Wednesdays, Thursdays, or Fridays and not on Mondays or Tuesdays, in order to reduce unemployment compensation.
Holiday Pay: Except in cases in which added pay is allowed for holiday work, there shall be no pay reduction for holidays occurring during the course of employment of a regularly appointed employee if said employee has been regularly at work for at least two days during the calendar week in which the holiday occurred, provided, however, that no holiday pay shall be allowed in any cases where such holiday occurred within, or immediately before, or immediately after a period of disciplinary suspension or unauthorized absence. Additionally, no holiday pay shall be authorized in cases where the holiday occurred within or immediately after a period of layoff or a leave of absence. A leave of absence is an authorized absence of greater than three days for purposes of this paragraph.
An absence shall be considered to be authorized only if the employee in question has duly reported his absence and has been duly excused. A holiday which falls on a Friday or on a Monday shall be considered to be immediately before, or immediately after, the adjacent Monday or Friday for purposes of interpreting this paragraph. An employee who is on sick leave with pay or on vacation with pay shall be regarded as being regularly at work for purposes of interpreting this paragraph. Nothing herein shall be construed to deny holiday pay to any employee who has served the employee's regular time on the working day immediately before, and on the working day immediately following said holiday.
Holiday Pay - Part-Time Nonmanagement/Nonrepresented Employees: Effective January 1, 1979, employees holding positions represented by District Council #48, or who are identified as nonmanagement/nonrepresented, who work an average of 20 hours per week on a year-round basis in positions which are budgeted at half-time or more shall be eligible for holiday pay to the extent they are normally scheduled. Administration of these provisions shall be in accordance with the preceding paragraph on holiday pay.
Sec. 6. Part-time Employees - Incumbents in One Position; Proportional Rate of Pay: Part-time service in any position shall carry pro rata compensation and such part-time service shall be reckoned as proportionately fractional in computing the number of incumbents allowed in any position.
Where employment in any position is on a part-time basis the determination of the part of the full-time rate to be paid shall be made by the City Comptroller.
Sec. 7. Overtime Scheduled on a Normal and Regular Basis - Group of Employees: When the work week of any group of employees is regularly and normally throughout the year more than 40 hours per week, the Common Council may provide additional compensation for said positions on the basis of the proportion of time worked normally, regularly, and throughout the year in relation to a 40-hour week period.
Bonus payment for support personnel in the Operations Division, Fleet Services Section who work overtime during Snow and Ice Control Operations: A support personnel employee in the Operations Division, Fleet Services Section shall receive a one ($1) dollar per hour premium for all overtime such employee worked during the snow and ice control operations. This bonus payment shall also be paid to a support personnel employee in the Fleet Services Repairs Unit at the Central Repair Garage for any overtime worked on repairing snow plow blades and to Repairs Unit personnel for all overtime such employee worked on a snow related assignment during the winter season. A support personnel employee shall be an Operations Division employee in the Fleet Services Section, a Stock Room or Tire Shop employee in the Fleet Services Section or a Garage Attendant, Garage Custodian, Communications Assistant III or IV in the Operations Section.
Sec. 8. Boards and Commissions: Compensation and Reimbursement. A member of a city board shall receive compensation for serving on a city board specified under s. 1, pay ranges 036 to 047, as long as the member is not receiving compensation for employment by the city or a city agency, apart from compensation for service on a board or commission; or as long as the member's name does not appear on a city biweekly payroll apart from serving on a board or commission; or as long as the member’s name does not appear on a regular payroll of the city apart from serving on a board or commission.
Reimbursement allowances for members of certain city boards are for estimated average expenditures in attending board meetings. A flat allowance of $20 per meeting shall be provided for the reimbursement of members of those city boards, commissions, committees and authorities listed below for a maximum of 20 meetings per calendar year ($400 per year). This flat allowance is intended as reimbursement for estimated average expenses, such as traveling, parking and other related expenses, normally incurred by members of such city boards as a consequence of their attending regular meetings of duly authorized city boards. Meetings eligible for reimbursement allowance do not include preparation meetings or subcommittee meetings.
It is clearly intended that members of the following types of boards and commissions shall not be eligible for any reimbursement allowances authorized by this section of the salary ordinance:
1. Boards and commissions whose members are compensated under pay ranges 036 through 047 of Part 1, Sec. 1 of the salary ordinance.
2. Boards and commissions having separate corporate identities who have the power to establish their own reimbursement policies for their members, such as the housing authority and the redevelopment authority.
3. Boards and commissions established other than by common council action.
To simplify the payment of reimbursement allowances for members of eligible boards, such payments shall be made once each year. At the end of the year such board chair shall submit to the Comptroller's office a list of members eligible for such compensation payments together with a record of the number of meetings each member has attended during that calendar year.

Sec. 9. Continuation of Salary Rates and Ranges: Where duties and responsibilities of positions have remained unchanged, the salary rates and ranges established by previous ordinances are hereby declared to continue in effect to govern the pay rates and ranges of officers and employees in the positions they hold at the time of the passage of this ordinance without regard to the salary rate or to the title of the position to which they were allocated and for which the pay rate and range would constitute a reduction in the pay of the position they presently hold as an effect of the passage of this ordinance.
Return from Authorized Layoff or Leave: It is hereby declared to be the intention of the Common Council not to reduce the pay rate or range of any officer or employee or of any officer or employee returning to City service from a duly authorized layoff or leave of absence including military leaves, hospitalization, rehabilitation, or further education or vocational training.

(See s. 350-237 of the Milwaukee Code of Ordinances titled "Exclusions from Benefits.")
Sec. 11.

In addition, Effective Pay Period 1, 2004, an employee occupying the position of Police Liaison Officer shall receive $150 biweekly as compensation in lieu of overtime and certain other payments and allowances received by a member of the Milwaukee Police Department.

c. Equal Opportunity: Principles of merit and equity shall prevail in all aspects of the administration of this Ordinance. As specified in ch. 109 of the Milwaukee Code of Ordinances, it is unlawful to discriminate because of sex, race, religion, color, national origin or ancestry, age, disability, lawful source of income, marital status, sexual orientation or familial status in regard to job posting, hiring, training, tenure, promotion, compensation, or enforcement of any rule or employment policy and other terms and conditions of employment.
d. Recruitment: Except as provided elsewhere, appointment shall be at the minimum rate of the grade to which the classification is allocated. In the event it becomes necessary to recruit at a rate above the minimum, recruitment may be authorized at a rate up to 60% of the maximum of the salary grade with the approval of the Department of Employee Relations and the Chair of the Committee on Finance and Personnel. A listing of appointments made pursuant to this provision shall be communicated to the Committee on Finance and Personnel.
e. Salary Advancement:
(1) Intent: This Ordinance is intended to provide the basic policies and procedures for administering the Management Pay Plan. It is also intended that all officers and employees shall fully cooperate with the Department of Employee Relations in the administration of this Plan. The Department of Employee Relations is authorized to develop procedures and guidelines necessary to carry out the intent of this section, including the development of guidelines for conducting annual performance reviews.
(2) Increases Within Salary Grade: Except as provided below, employees shall be eligible for a salary increase of 3.1% within a 12-month rating period. This salary increase shall be effective on the employee’s anniversary date provided job performance during the rating period has been fully satisfactory. Job performance during the rating period must be documented by a minimum of one written performance review. These increases shall be up to the maximum of the salary grade. In the event of a less than fully satisfactory performance during the rating period, a department head may delay or withhold this salary increase. Department heads who intend to delay or withhold a salary increase must notify the Department of Employee Relations and the affected employee before taking such action. Employees have a right to appeal this decision before the City Service Commission.
(3) Exceptional Achievement Awards: A nonpensionable, non-base building, lump sum equal to 1% of the midpoint of the employee’s current salary grade may be awarded for exceptional performance that is measurable and consistent with the mission and objectives/outcomes established by policy makers for the department. These awards must be approved by the Department of Employee Relations and an individual may not receive more than one award during a 12 month period. The Department of Employee Relations shall establish administrative guidelines for approving these awards.
(4) Professional Development Awards: A nonpensionable, non-base building, lump sum award of $700 may be granted to an employee for attaining a professional degree, designation or certification that is not required by the job but is related to the mission, goals, and objectives of the department. These awards are not ongoing and must be approved by the Department of Employee Relations. The Department of Employee Relations shall establish guidelines for approving these awards.
(5) Job Performance Reviews: A minimum of one performance review shall be conducted within a 12-month rating period in accordance with the guidelines established by the Department of Employee Relations.
(6) Seasonal Managers: City employees who are appointed to management positions on a seasonal basis, and who revert to non-management classifications during the remainder of the year, shall be eligible for a full salary adjustment during the pay period in which they achieve a cumulative twenty six (26) pay periods of service in management. Such adjustments will be made under the same conditions as for others in the plan.
(7) Department Heads: Otherwise eligible heads of departments shall be entitled to receive a performance review and salary adjustment under the same conditions as established for general City managers. Evaluations of department heads shall be made by their appointment authority. For those department heads who serve under boards and commissions appointed by the Mayor, this recommended performance evaluation and salary adjustment shall be forwarded to the Mayor, who shall have final determination in assessing each department head's job performance during the preceding rating period, and approving the salary increment.
(8) Comptroller, City Attorney, Municipal Judges, City Treasurer and City Clerk: These individuals shall receive a 3.1% increase on their salary anniversary pay period up to the maximum of the salary grade. These adjustments shall begin in 1995 and occur in each succeeding year thereafter, provided that the individual is otherwise eligible. It is the intent of this provision that all Municipal Judges be paid at the same rate of pay. Except in the case of the City Clerk, individuals subsequently elected to these positions shall begin at the rate being paid to their predecessor. In the case of the City Clerk, if the Steering and Rules Committee does not approve the adjustment in the amount authorized, no adjustment shall be granted.
(9) Mayor, Aldermen, President of the Common Council are paid according to s. 350-100 of the Milwaukee Code of Ordinances, which is also reflected in Part I, Section 2 of the Salary Ordinance.
f. Promotion
(1) Promotion: A promotion may take place by reclassification to a higher salary grade, reallocation to a higher salary grade, or appointment to a different, higher level position.
(2) Professional, Management and Leadership Categories: For salary administration purposes all management job classifications have been grouped into one of three categories: Professional, Management and Leadership. Salary adjustments resulting from a promotion are based upon movement within the same category or to a new category. Except as otherwise noted, all promotions into or within salary grades 001 through 019 result in a 3% increase except an initial promotion into a classification designated as Management is 5%, an initial promotion into a classification designated as Leadership is 7% and the employee must be paid at least the minimum and no more than the maximum of the salary grade. The Department of Employee Relations must review and authorize the calculation of all salary rates prior to promotion.
(3) Salary Anniversary Date: For purposes of salary adjustment under this plan, all managers will retain their salary anniversary date when they are promoted or reallocated to a higher salary grade, except that adjustments are made for time off the payroll or deferred salary increments.
g. Demotions: Demotions of management employees are under the authority of and administered by the Department of Employee Relations. In instances where a management employee disagrees with the salary determination associated with a demotion, he or she may appeal to the Employee Relations Director. Managers, who are demoted for any of the reasons stated below, will retain their last salary anniversary date for pay progression purposes.
The placement of the manager’s salary in the new salary grade after the demotion will be determined as follows:

h. Flexible Schedule: Employees excluded from the provision of s. 350-5 of the Milwaukee Code of Ordinances (Exclusion from Overtime) in salary grades 004 and above may, upon department head approval, work on a flexible schedule, so that the daily work schedule may be adjusted from time to time as necessary and appropriate to fulfill assigned duties and responsibilities. Such adjustments may include starting and quitting times that are earlier or later than established in the normal work schedule of the department, and may include more or less than eight hours in any particular day and more or less than forty hours in any particular week.
i. Overtime: Where management positions are excluded from s. 350-5 of the Milwaukee Code of Ordinances (salary grades 004 and above) the rates of pay established recognize the fact that a certain amount of overtime is considered appropriate and normal for these supervisory and management positions.
j. Salary Adjustment Appeals: Managers may appeal the delay or denial of an increase to the City Service Commission. The Commission may hear such cases directly or appoint one or more persons to serve as hearing examiners whose recommendations would be made to said Commission for review and approval. The Department of Employee Relations shall establish policies and procedures for conducting such appeals.
k. Correction of Obvious Errors or Inequities: In the event that a transaction made pursuant to this Section results in an obvious misapplication of its intent, the Director of Employee Relations, with the approval of the Finance and Personnel Committee Chair, is authorized to make equity adjustments or corrections.
Sec. 13. Physicians: It shall be permissible for the Commissioner of Health to schedule physicians employed in any Health Department bureau, under whatever title employed, in order to maintain complete coverage of service at any health clinic. Such authority shall extend to the filling of full- time or part-time positions for a greater time than provided in this ordinance, to the rearrangement of time of presently employed physicians and to compensate said physicians on a straight-time basis in their current rate of compensation, provided that the total time and compensation of physicians shall not be in excess of the total time provided in this ordinance and in the Positions Ordinance, nor of the total appropriation provided in the budget. No additional fringe benefits shall be provided for such additional service. This action is necessary in view of the shortage of physicians available for public service.
