RECOMMENDATION:

Recommendation Concerning the United Way of Escambia County's Day of Caring, Friday, October 4, 2019 - Janice P. Gilley, County Administrator

That the Board support the annual "Day of Caring" on Friday, October 4, 2019, sponsored by the United Way of Escambia County, as a public purpose, thereby authorizing:

A. Employees participating will receive Administrative Leave for each hour they participate, up to a maximum of eight hours;

B. Employees who normally work Monday through Thursday, four, 10 hour days, would receive straight time Compensatory Leave for each hour they participate instead of getting paid overtime, unless payment is otherwise in accordance with collective bargaining Agreements; and

C. If their participation lasts less than four hours, the employees are expected to return to work.

BACKGROUND:

United Way's Day of Caring has become Escambia County's premier "hands-on" opportunity to help people and community service agencies. This event brings people from all segments of the business, government, and military communities together to perform needed volunteer projects at local non-profit organizations. Volunteers will do a variety of tasks for those most in need in our community. Each year, many companies, governmental agencies, and the military allow their employees this opportunity to help the community and complete numerous projects at United Way funded agencies.

BUDGETARY IMPACT:

Any employee participating in this activity is already included in the current budget of their respective divisons. In lieu of the employee utilizing annual leave, the hours involved in the "Day of Caring" would be reported as Administrative Leave.
