<br />47 <br /> <br />Each employee covered by this MOU agrees to comply with all safety rules and regulations in <br />effect and any subsequent rules and regulations that may be adopted. Employees further agree that <br />they will report all accidents and safety hazards to the appropriate management official <br />immediately. Any employee having knowledge of or who is a witness to an accident shall, if <br />requested, give full and truthful testimony as to same. <br /> <br />SECTION 19. LIMITED DUTY WORK <br /> <br />19.1 An injured employee who is receiving medical attention for an alleged industrial injury, <br />and who is determined to be temporarily disabled, is required to return to the department <br />after initial treatment with a medical report indicating that, if any, limited duty the <br />employee can perform. If none, the report should so indicate. The department routinely <br />requires periodic updating reports and these should also contain this information. <br /> <br />19.2 An employee on extended sick leave is likewise required to provide these periodic reports, <br />which should also contain limited duty information. <br /> <br />19.3 For employees whose limited duty arrangement calls for less than the regular number of <br />hours worked per payroll period, the hours actually worked will be shown as regular time <br />on the time card and the remaining hours (the difference between hours actually worked <br />and hours normally scheduled) charged to the appropriate leave. For persons expected to <br />be on a less-than-normal schedule for more than thirty (30) days, the department will <br />initiate a personnel action form adjusting accrual rates of such work scheduled-related <br />benefits as vacation, sick leave or industrial disability as set forth in subsection 9. When <br />the individual returns to their regular work schedule, the department will initiate another <br />personnel action form to return accrual rates to normal; however, there will be no <br />adjustment of balances as a result of an accrual rate change. <br /> <br />19.4 The duty limitations specified by the treating physician must be strictly adhered to when <br />making work assignments. <br /> <br />19.5 Limited-duty assignments should be such that there is minimum risk of further injury or <br />aggravation. <br /> <br />SECTION 20. RETIREMENT <br /> <br />20.1 Retirement Plan <br /> <br />Retirement benefits for employees hired on or before October 23, 2011, shall be those <br />established by the Public Employees' Retirement System (CalPERS) for Local Safety <br />Members Three Percent (3%) at Age Fifty (50) Formula. <br /> <br />Retirement benefits for employees hired on or after October 24, 2011 who do not qualify <br />as “new members” under Government Code Section 7522.04(f), will be those established <br />by CalPERS for Local Safety Members, Three Percent (3%) at Age Fifty-Five (55) <br />Formula. <br /> <br />Retirement benefits for employees hired on or after January 1, 2013, and who qualify as <br />“new members” under Government Code Section 7522.04(f) will be those established by <br />CalPERS for Local Safety Members, Two and Seven-Tenths Percent (2.7%) at Age Fifty- <br />Seven (57) Formula. <br />6.H. - Page 55 of 72 <br />397
