COLLECTIVE BARGAINING AGREEMENT
BETWEEN
CITY OF RIVERSIDE,MISSOURI
AND
LOCAL 42
INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF FIRE FIGHTERS
2020 Side Letter Agreement
Greater Kansas City Fire Fighters, Local No. 42 of the International Association of Fire Fighters,
AFL-CIO-CLC, herein called the "Union," and the City of Riverside, Missouri, herein called the
"City," hereby agree to extend and amend the August 1, 2017 through June 30, 2020 labor
agreement for one additional year (through June 30, 202 1) between them as follows:
Add the following language to Article 11, Section 1.8: Effective July 1, 2020, all employees in
the bargaining unit who have received an annual performance rating higher than "needs
improvement" shall receive a 4.0%pay increase.
Add a new Section 3 to Article 11, titled "Longevity Pay." The section shall read as follows:
On the pay date first occurring after November 15, each eligible employee shall receive a lump
sum longevity payment. Regular wage withholding shall apply.
Full-time and part-time employees are eligible for longevity pay after completing three full years
of service.
The payment formula for full-time employees shall be [full years of service] x [the then-current
longevity incentive amount]. Full years of service shall be determined as of November 1, as shall
employee status (i.e. either full-time or part-time). One year of credit shall be given for each full
year of part-time or full-time service. There shall be no credit given for partial years of service.
The longevity incentive amount for 2020 shall be$65.00. Thus, for example,a full-time employee
hired as a part-time employee on January 1, 2010, who became a full-time employee on January
1,2013,would have 10 full years of service as of November 1, 2020, and would receive a payment
of$650.00.
Part-time employees shall be eligible on the same basis as full-time employees, but their payout
amounts shall be one-half the amount that would be paid to a full-time employee with the same
years of service. In the example listed above, if the employee had never converted to full-time
status, his or her 2020 longevity payment would be $325.00.
The City may reduce the amount of the COLA by .25% for every 10% reduction in revenue for
the fiscal year. Additionally, if the City's revenue is off by more than 30% in this fiscal year,
longevity pay may also be suspended for 2020.
Add new Section 7 to Article 6, titled "Premium Pay for Part-Time Employees". This section
shall read as follows:
Part-time employees shall not be entitled to premium pay under this Agreement, except that when
part-time employees respond to a call-out, they shall be paid time-and-one-half for all hours
actually worked.
Employee Handbook: All parties agree where the original ratified agreement references the City
handbook, it means the City's handbook as it may be amended from time-to-time, throughout the
life of the Agreement.
Payroll Administration: The parties acknowledge that the City will be bringing payroll
administration in-house, beginning sometime during the second half of 2020. The parties agree
that starting with the first full payroll period administered in-house, bargaining unit members will
be paid based on actual hours worked or paid during each pay period, rather than on the current
"level pay"basis.
So agreed this day of June, 2020.
