BACKGROUND: Over the last few years, the Board has expressed concern about the County's use of temporary employees and the amount of funding dedicated to this line item. As Department Directors prepared their 2008-09 fiscal year budgets, the Manager directed them to review their department's use of temporary monies. Staff plans to implement an internal budget management tool in the upcoming fiscal year that allows departments to categorize their temporary employees into the following categories: / Seasonal Employees / Student Intern / Temporary Employees / Time Limited Part-Time Employees While in some instances, such as re-employing retirees on a part-time basis, departments are able to meet workload demands, there are instances where departments have filled more permanent staffing needs through use of long-term temporary employees. This year, as Department Directors developed their budget requests, management emphasized identifying and correcting departments' utilization of non-permanent employees to fill on-going staffing needs. As a result, departments requested new permanent positions, part- and full-time, to meet ongoing needs presently covered by non-permanent staff and realign currently budgeted monies to cover costs of the request. The attached spreadsheet summarizes the requests submitted by individual departments. 2 Tonight's work session offers the Board an opportunity to review the requests and provide additional direction to staff. The Manager plans to present staffing recommendations to the Board during their May 8, 2008 budget work session. FINANCIAL IMPACT: The net County cost to transition these temporary employees to new permanent positions is approximately $210,000 or about two tenths of one penny on the projected 2008-09 tax rate. For the most part, these costs are associated with the cost of providing permanent employee benefits such as health, dental, and life insurance and retirement contributions. RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board of County Commissioners discuss the proposed the transition of long term temporary funding to meet permanent County staff needs b O N Q Q ~ N Q~ N Z O U c O Q~ a as d O ~_ C IL ~ ~ Q. d h L '."'
