City fail to reach mutual agreement on the selection of an arbitrator, each party shall, at a meeting of
its representatives, alternately strike a name from the list of arbitrators provided by the SCCMS. The

4.5 Failure by either party to meet any of the aforementioned time limits as set forth in
the Subsections listed above will result in forfeiture. Failure by the City to meet any of the limits
listed above will allow the Union to go forward with the grievance or the disciplinary appeal to the
next step of the established procedures. However, the aforementioned time limits may be extended
by mutual agreement. Grievances settled by forfeiture shall not bind either party to an interpretation
of this Memorandum of Understanding, nor shall such settlements be cited by either party as evidence
in the settlement of subsequent grievances.

Appeal Forms to more timely and efficiently move grievances and disciplinary appeals through the

employees and to that end City management shall make all reasonable provisions necessary for
the safety of employees in the performance of their work.
5.2 Regular "tailgate" meetings will be held on all jobs to plan the job and emphasize
safety in its performance.
5.3 Regular safety meetings will be held bi-monthly for the purpose of reviewing
accidents and preventing their recurrence, eliminating hazardous conditions and familiarizing
employees with safe work procedures and practices.
6.1 An employee who is absent by reason of industrial disability may be returned to
work by the City and given temporary light duties within their ability to perform, with the consent
of the employee's physician. The duration of any such period of temporary work shall be
determined by the City. Such employee shall be compensated at the then current rate of pay of
their regular classification while engaged in such temporary duties. The City may require an
employee requesting to return to work after an absence caused by disability or illness to submit to
a medical examination by a physician or physicians approved by the City for the purpose of
determining that such employee is physically and mentally fit and able to perform the duties of
their position without hazard to himself, or to their fellow employees, or to their own permanent
health.
6.2 Vacation and sick leave shall be accrued and group insurance coverage shall be
maintained while a regular employee is absent from work as a result of a job related disability and
receiving the supplemental benefits to Workers' Compensation temporary disability compensation
as set forth in Section 4850 of the Labor Code of the State of California for the period of such
8
125386463 RE020-040
disability, but not exceeding one (1) year. Employees who are not entitled to the benefits as set
forth in Section 4850 of the Labor Code of the State of California but who are receiving Workers'
Compensation temporary disability benefits, may, nevertheless, at their option, maintain their
group health and welfare insurance coverage during the period in which they are receiving tem-
porary disability compensation for up to a maximum of a cumulative total of five (5) years, which
includes one (1) year of Section 4850 paid time, providing the employee pays his or her share of
the monthly premium, pursuant to Article 21.2(B), to the City of Redding on or before the first
day of the month for which the premium is intended. Holidays which occur during the period for
which an employee is receiving temporary disability compensation shall not be recognized by such
employee for compensation purposes.
ARTICLE 7: EMPLOYEE STATUS
7.1 Employees will be designated as Regular or Full -Time Temporary, or Full Time
Limited Term depending upon the purpose for which they are hired and their length of continuous
service with the City.
7.2 A Regular employee (Status 3) is defined as an employee hired for a full-time
position that has been regularly established as an authorized position and is of indeterminate
duration. A Regular employee shall receive not less than the minimum rate for the job and shall
be eligible for sick leave pay, vacation pay, holiday pay, retirement plan participation, health and
welfare insurance coverage and items of a similar nature, as the employee becomes eligible.
Regular employees shall serve a probationary period of one (1) year upon initial appointment to
Regular status. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article, an employee's probationary
period shall be extended by the duration of any light duty assignment, paid absence or unpaid
absence of ten (10) or more consecutive workdays. Employees serving their initial hire
probationary period shall not be eligible for leave of absence, or promotion and transfer rights.
An employee's initial probationary period may also be extended at the discretion of Fire Chief
with, the concurrence of the Personnel Director and City Manager, for a period not to exceed three
(3) months for the purpose of enabling a more extensive review and evaluation of a probationary
employee prior to the employee attaining permanent status. The probationary employee and the
Union shall be notified in writing of such an extension not less than ten (10) working days prior
the expiration of the probationary period. Any additional extension of the probationary period
beyond three (3) months would require a side letter with the Union.
7.3 A Full -Time Temporary employee (Status 7) is defined as an employee hired for
occasional or seasonal work, for a period not to exceed one thousand (1,000) hours in a fiscal year,
or as a retired annuitant not to exceed a maximum of nine hundred -sixty (960) hours. A Full -Time
Temporary employee shall receive not less than the minimum rate for the job and will be eligible
for sick leave pay per California state law, but will not be eligible for holiday pay, vacation pay,
health and welfare insurance coverage, retirement plan participation or items of a similar nature,
nor shall the employee accrue seniority, or promotion and transfer rights, or leave of absence rights.
If a Full -Time Temporary employee is reclassified to Regular status without a break in service, the
employee shall be credited with vacation and sick leave accrual back to their full-time temporary
date of hire.
7.4 A Full -Time Limited Term (Apprentice Firefighter) (Status 3) is a limited term
probationary employee serving at will and is defined as an employee hired for full time work for
a maximum period of five (5) years. A Full Time Limited Term (Apprentice Firefighter) shall be
9
12538646.1 RE020-040
eligible for sick leave pay, vacation pay, holiday pay, retirement plan participation, and health and
welfare insurance coverage. They shall serve a probationary period of five (5) years upon initial
appointment and will not be eligible for leave of absence or promotion and transfer rights, nor shall
they accrue seniority.
ARTICLE 8: WAGES AND CLASSIFICATIONS
8.1 Employees shall be paid the wage established for their classification. Upon initial
appointment to a classification, an employee shall normally be paid the lowest wage rate for that
classification. An employee may, however, be paid a wage rate above the lowest wage rate if
circumstances justify it. The Full Time Limited Term (Apprentice Firefighter) has a one step
hourly rate and step increases will not be granted. Any adjustment to the Full Time Limited Tenn
(Apprentice Firefighter) hourly rate is solely at the discretion of the City.
Wage step increases will be granted as follows: After twenty-six (26) ftill pay periods of
employment at Wage Step 1, and with an overall satisfactory or above performance rating, an
employee shall be advanced to Wage Step 2. After twenty-six (26) full pay periods of employment
at each subsequent Wage Step, with an overall satisfactory or above work performance, an
employee will be advanced to the next higher step. A promotion to a higher paid classification
pursuant to Article 11.3 does not change the anniversary date for Wage step increases. A full pay
period as used in 8.1 is defined as one in which the employee works or is paid for time off for at
least half of the regularly scheduled work hours.
8.1 (a) Should an employee wish to appeal a denial of a step increase, the employee may
do so by submitting an appeal (1) to the Fire Chief, and if not resolved, (2) to an advisory
committee comprised of two (2) representatives designated by the Union and one (1) representative
designated by Fire management. The committee will consider the appeal and make an advisory
recommendation to the City Manager whose decision will be final. Such appeal must be made
within thirty (30) days of the date of denial of the merit increase.
8.1 (b) Every reasonable effort will be made to notify an employee of any deficiencies
in job performance at least ninety (90) days prior to the evaluation date, unless specific behavior
occurs after the ninety (90) day limit. This provision does not prohibit the Evaluator from
codifying the deficiencies in the Employee's Performance Evaluation.
8.2 Wages shall be paid at bi-weekly intervals on Thursdays at the end of the
employee's work period, after 12:00 Noon for a pay period ending no earlier than the preceding
Saturday. If a payday falls on a holiday, payment shall be made on the preceding workday. Except
as otherwise provided herein, wages paid shall be for actual time worked and compensable time
off during the pay period, except, however, that time worked or time absent as a result of a shift
trade shall not be considered in computing time for compensation purposes, except as provided in
20.4. Wages paid to twenty-four (24) hour shift employees shall be based on the average number
of regularly scheduled work hours each pay period. All employees hired after January 28, 2007,
must make arrangements to have their pay deposited to a bank account via electronic transfer.
8.3 When an employee is temporarily assigned to work in a classification higher than
their regular classification, they shall be paid at the rate established for the higher classification,
with a minimum of four (4) hours and time computed to the next full hour, except when the work
is performed outside of the regular work hours and the duration is less than four (4) hours. When
an employee is temporarily assigned to work in a higher classification which has a wage range

ll
125386461 RE020-040
as defined in 29 C.F.R. §1910.120 and the CCR Title 8, Section 5192. This section does not apply
to the Full Time Limited Term (Apprentice Firefighter) classification.
(1) Members joining the City's designated Hazardous Materials
Response Team, will receive three percent (3%) for the first three (3) years on the Team. The
three (3) years for current Team members is not cumulative with the exception of the time an
employee fills in for another employee who is on industrial injury. The incentive pay will increase
to seven and one half percent (7 1/2%) when an employee has maintained their certification and
served on the Team for three (3) consecutive prior years.
(2) Employees will be temporarily removed from the Team if they are
unavailable or expected to be unavailable for response when called or unfit for duty for a period
of at least sixty (60) days. Employees removed from the Team will not receive their stipend while
they are off the team, unless they are on industrial injury leave. Employees removed from the
HMRT will need to meet the requirements of the HMRT Hazardous Materials Response Team
Policy in order to be placed back on the team. Management may choose to temporarily fill that
vacancy with the next employee on the eligibility list, provided they meet the minimum
requirements of HMRT.
(b) All employees participating in this incentive program understand that, at the
discretion of the City, they may be assigned to participate in a hazardous materials response team
as deemed appropriate by the City.
Should there be a vacancy on the Team, it will be filled from an eligibility list established
by the Redding Fire Department. Positions on the list will be established in the following manner:
Employees will be placed on the eligibility list based on the order in which they apply after
they have successfully completed the required training. Employees who complete training on the
same date and apply within seven (7) calendar days of that date, will have their eligibility position
determined by their Fire Department seniority date in accordance with Article 10.1 SENIORITY.
Employees are not required to maintain or refresh their certification to remain in their
current position on the eligibility list.
In addition, employees who have completed the required training, but have had their
certification lapse, may request to be placed on the eligibility list.
Employees will be given six (6) months to refresh their certification after receiving an offer
from the Fire Department to join a Hazardous Material Response Team (HMRT). The cost to
refresh their certification will be at the employee's expense. The Fire Department agrees to allow
eligible employees to attend HMRT monthly training, voluntarily and without wage compensation
as a means of refreshing certification. This offer is contingent upon the HMRT Director's
willingness to allow their participation.
Eligible employees will not be placed on a HMRT until the Fire Department has received
the appropriate certificate (HMT or HMS from CSTI or CSFMO).
(c) Employees assigned to the Team shall participate in ongoing training and
education activities as required by the Team and as directed by the Department, which will allow
employees to maintain training proficiency at the level of HMT or HMS Absences from training

12538646.1 RE020-040
will be considered excused absences on a case-by-case basis by the Fire Chief. Employees not
assigned to the City's designated Team will be responsible for obtaining, on their own, training
proficiency at the level of HMT or HMS. Employees must complete the recertification process
on their own, prior to being placed on the Team.
tD
(d) Workgroup leader assignments on the Team are voluntary. These duties may be
accomplished on regular duty, however, they should not adversely affect normal duty assignments.
If deemed necessary, the Battalion Chief may approve overtime to accomplish these duties.
(e) The City and the Union agree to meet and confer over potential conversion over
HMRT to CalOES HazMat Unit pending City and CalOES approval, and subsequent requirements
of HMRT team following such potential conversion,

spent in traveling between such assigned duty station and the job site shall be considered as time
worked.
9.2(a) For employees other than twenty-four (24) hour shift employees., a workweek is
defined to consist of seven (7) consecutive calendar days, Sunday through Saturday, and a basic
Z:�
workweek is defined to consist of four (4)/five (5) consecutive workdays of eight (8), nine (9), or
ten (10) hours, as applicable, on a scheduled work day, each Monday through Friday. The basic
workweek may begin at any hour of the day during the workweek.
9.2(b) For twenty-four (24) hour shift employees, a work period is defined to consist of
twenty-four (24) consecutive hours from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m. The basic work period is defined
to consist of eight (8) twenty-four (24) hour workdays each twenty-four (24) day rotation, which
are the work period and basic work periods as established in January 1987. The following is a
representation of the three (3) platoon (A, B, C) 4-4-4-6 schedule rotation beginning January I
through 31,2001: B -A -B -C -B -C -B -C -A -C -A -B -A -B -A -B -C -B -C -A -C -A -C -A -B -A -B -C -B -C -B.

During the term of the Agreement, the City and Union agree to meet and discuss the possible
implementation of a 24-hour shift work schedule for Fire Prevention Officers.
9.2(d) Whenever it becomes necessary for the City to temporarily rearrange an
employee's work schedule, the City will give as much advance notice as possible but in any event
not less than seventy-two (72) hours before the change occurs. Furthermore, no change shall be
made which results in more or less than the normal work hours in a pay period.
13
12538646.1 RE020-040

E]
Time worked on a holiday.
9.3(b) For twenty-four (24) hour shift employees, overtime is defined as time worked in
excess of one hundred eighty-two (182) hours in a work period. Time worked as used herein shall
include time absent with pay, such as vacation, sick leave, emergency leave, etcetera, but shall not

periods, generally every other week, on a rotational basis.
Method of payment of "On Call" Duty: Overtime Compensation
A
One (1) hour of overtime compensation at the employee's regular rate of pay for each
weekday (12:01 a.m. Monday through midnight Friday).

C
Three (3) hours of overtime compensation at the employee's regular rate of pay for
Sundays (12:01 a.m. Sunday through midnight Sunday) and Holiday (pursuant to Article

Scheduling: Shall be determined by seniority preference. Seniority is defined as time in the
bargaining unit.
Vehicle: In addition to "On Call" pay, the City will provide the employee with a "take home"
vehicle in order to provide for immediate response.
9.4(a) Regular Rate of Pay. Items included in determining the regular rate of pay for
purposes of calculating overtime, retirement and other regular pay calculations (i.e. holiday pay)
shall include the pay rate as established in the pay range by the employee's classification, education
incentive Day and Hazmat incentive pay, as applicable to each individual employee covered under
this MOU.
9.4(b) Overtime. Overtime compensation shall be paid at a rate equivalent to one and
one-half (1'l2) times the regular rate of pay. However, employees (excluding Full Time Limited
Term (Apprentice Firefighter) may choose to accumulate Compensatory Time Off (CTO), (at the
one and one-half rate,) up to the limit as established in the Fair Labor Standards Act for public
safety employees. Such accumulated CTO may be carried over from one calendar year to another,
14
12538646.1 RE020-040
except an employee may elect to cash out any accumulated CTO balance as of the last pay period
ending in November in the week following the first payday in December. Any accumulated CTO
not otherwise cashed out or that is earned in December up to the limit will be carried over into the
next calendar year.
I
Employees may not accrue CTO due to out of city emergency/fire assignments such as strike
teams, OES responses, and Overhead Assignments. Additionally, members covering for personnel
participating in these assignments outside the City would also not be allowed to accrue CTO for
those coverages. Employees may only accrue CTO up to a rate of 1:1 while covering for personnel
who are using CTO leave with the balance of any overtime due paid as cash (e.g., an employee on
a 24 hour overtime shift covering for another employee using CTO time can only accrue up to 24
hours of CTO, with the remaining overtime wages paid in cash).
9.5 If an employee performs overtime work immediately following the end of their
regular shift they shall be paid overtime compensation only for the actual time worked.

(b) on their non -workdays, or outside of their regular hours on workdays, shall be paid overtime
compensation for the actual time worked, but in no event for less than four (4) hours compensation.
If an employee who is called out for such work outside of their regular hours on a workday
continues to work into their regular hours, they shall be paid overtime compensation only for the
actual time worked.
9.7 Overtime distribution shall be in accordance with Departmental policy as agreed
upon between Management and the Union. Overtime shall be distributed as equally as is
practicable among those employees who are qualified and available and who volunteer for
overtime work, and the City shall not require employees who have worked overtime to take
equivalent time off during a workday without pay. For the purpose of determining availability as
set forth above, an employee's platoon assignment shall not be used to deny the opportunity for
equitable distribution of overtime work.
9.8 When coverage is required for the ARFF apparatus, the priority and sequence of
selection will be as follows: First, the Captain on Engine 7 will fill the vacancy, if that Captain is
a call back and not ARFF trained, the Captain at Station 4 will cover the vacancy with the normal
call back list being used to cover the new vacancy at Station 4. If the Captain on duty at Station 4
is not ARFF trained, then the Captain at Station 5 will take the ARFF vacancy with the normal call
back list being used to cover the new vacancy at Station 5. If the above process fails to provide an
ARFF trained Captain, the normal call back list will be utilized to select an off duty Captain next
up for call back who is ARFF trained. If the process fails to provide a current, trained ARFF
Captain, then the established procedures for an order back will be utilized to do so.
9.9 For the purposes of overnight travel for activities other than active firefighting,
normal work hours are defined as 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. with a one-hour lunch break. Such activities
include employees participating in the Redding Fire Department Training Cadre and
administration -sanctioned workgroups. This section does not apply to other voluntary
assignments, training, or activities. Employees normally scheduled to work on a travel day will be
paid as scheduled. Employees not scheduled will be paid for hours worked between 8 a.m. and 5
p.m. and for any other time when they are actively engaged in work activities.

9.10 Off -Duty Station Coverage During Emergency Operations
During a significant incident or multiple incidents that require the extended commitment of
multiple Redding Fire Department resources, the on -duty Battalion Chief or Duty Chief may
initiate the request for available off-duty personnel for emergency operations (SOP 2.32).
Emergency call-back time shall be compensated with a minimum of five (5) hours of overtime
compensated at a rate of two times (2x) the base rate of salary.
The call back time begins when the Employee makes positive contact with the Duty
Chief/Scheduling Captain to respond to the emergency, accepts the callback and receives a
duty or station assignment. The Employee must report to their duty or station assignment
within sixty (60) minutes. The call back time shall end at such time as the Employee completes
the call-back assignment and leaves the job site.
An Employee contacted to respond to an emergency who cannot arrive to the assignment
within sixty (60) minutes shall not be eligible for call-back overtime pay unless the duty
officer directs the Employee to respond for coverage. The Employee is responsible to notify
the duty officer of the estimated response time. The Battalion Chief or Duty Chief may limit
the number of employees needed for the emergency operations coverage or deny employees
that cannot arrive to the assignment in an acceptable time frame.
ARTICLE 10: SENIORITY
10.1 City Seniority is defined as total length of continuous service in a Regular (Full -
Time, Status 3) position with the City of Redding. Classification Seniority is defined as the total
length of continuous service in each classification within the bargaining unit, including any time
spent by an employee who promoted into a City of Redding Fire Department Management
position(s) who later returned into a position within the bargaining unit. In determining an
employee's City Seniority or Classification Seniority, the continuity of their service will be
deemed to be broken by termination of employment by reason of (1) resignation, (2) discharge for
cause, (3) layoff for more than twelve (12) consecutive months, (4) failure to return immediately
on the expiration of a leave of absence or acceptance of other full-time employment while on leave,
or (5) absence without pay, without a written leave of absence, in excess of five (5) work shifts or
five (5) workdays, as applicable. Continuity of service will not be broken and seniority will accrue
when an employee is: (a) inducted, enlists or is called to active duty in the Armed Forces of the
United States, or service in the Merchant Marine, under any Act of Congress which provides that
the employee is entitled to reemployment rights, (b) on duty with the National Guard, (c) absent
due to industrial injury, (d) on leave of absence, or (e) absent due to layoff for a period of less than
twelve (12) consecutive months, Full Time Limited Tenn (Apprentice Firefighter) employees will
not accrue seniority.
10.2 Station rotation and shift bid order will be determined by time in Grade in
accordance with Departmental Policy 2.9, dated September 10, 2007, and as agreed between
Management and the Union.
10.3 "Grade", "Rank" and "Classification" are interchangeable terms in Department
Policy and this Agreement.

ARTICLE 11: PROMOTION AND TRANSFER
11.1 All promotions and transfers shall be in accordance with standards and
procedures as determined by the City. Notices of scheduled examinations for the positions of Fire
Engineer and Fire Captain shall be posted at least thirty (30) days in advance of the written test.
To the extent possible and subject to the determination by the Fire Chief and the Personnel
Director, Fire Engineer and Fire Captain eligibility lists will be promulgated once every two (2)
years on a staggered basis.
IL2 Seniority shall not be used as the sole criteria for promotions. In addition to
seniority, employee evaluations, job performance, test results, and ability, will be used for the
purpose of selecting applicants for promotion to a higher classification.
11.3 When an employee is promoted to a classification which has an hourly pay rate
overlapping the hourly pay rate of their previous classification, they shall be paid at the step of the
classification to which they are being promoted which is next higher to their present step but not
more than the top step of the classification to which they are promoted. A promotion to a higher
paid classification which provides a five percent (5%) wage increase does not change the
anniversary date for Wage Step increases.
11.4 All appointments filled by promotion of a City employee shall be on a
probationary basis for one (1) year. At any time during the probationary period, the City may
terminate the appointment. If an appointment is terminated, the employee shall be returned to
either their previous classification and wage rate, or some other classification that is mutually
satisfactory to both the employee and the City. If an appointment is terminated, the City may
consider the other bidders on the original posting, if any, rather than repost the vacancy notice.
An employee's probationary period shall be extended by the duration of any light duty assignment,
paid absence, or unpaid absence of ten (10) or more consecutive workdays. An employee's
probationary period may also be extended at the discretion of Fire Chief with, the concurrence of
the Personnel Director and City Manager, for a period not to exceed three (3) months for the
purpose of enabling a more extensive review and evaluation of a probationary employee prior to
the employee attaining permanent status in the promotional position. The probationary employee
and the Union shall be notified in writing of such an extension not less than ten (10) working days
prior the expiration of the probationary period. Any additional extension of the probationary
period beyond three (3) months would require a side letter with the Union.
11.5 Management may consider requests for transfer from one station to another.
11.6 At such time an employee moves from a forty (40) hour workweek schedule to a
fifty-six (56) hour equivalent workweek schedule, all earned leave balances will be adjusted to
commensurate hours in the new work schedule as follows:
11.7 Full Time Limited Term (Apprentice Firefighter) employees must test and be on
an eligibility list for full-time firefighter for consideration of appointment to a Regular Firefighter
position. Appointment to Regular Firefighter is not considered a promotion for this position.
Should a Full Time Limited Term (Apprentice Firefighter) be hired as a Regular Firefighter with
17
125386461 RE020-040
no employment -separation with the City, their accrued leave balances will be transferred to the
new position. Department seniority would not begin until appointment to a Regular Firefighter
position.
ARTICLE 12: LAYOFF
12.1 When it becomes necessary for the City to lay off regular (Full -Time, Status 3)
employees, the City will give employees involved as much notice as possible; but, in no event will
such employees receive less than two (2) weeks notice of layoff. Where probationary or temporary
employees are to be laid off, no notice of layoff need be given.
12.2 Layoff in all cases due to lack of work or budgetary constraints will be determined
by an employee's Classification Seniority (the employee with the least amount of time in each
classification targeted for layoff will be notified for lay-off first) in accordance with S.O.P.
Personnel 2.3. An employee whose job is being eliminated may elect to displace an employee in
a lower paid classification if qualified to perform the duties of the lower paid classification and if
their Classification Seniority is greater than that of the employee in the lower paid classification.
12.3 Regular employees (excluding Apprentice Fire Fighters) who are laid off will be
given preference in filling future vacancies for a period Lip to one (1) year, providing they keep the
City advised of their current address.
12.4 When an employee elects to displace into a classification due to lay-off or
voluntary demotion, which has a wage range overlapping the wage range of their previous
classification, they shall be paid at the wage rate of the classification which is next lower to their
present wage rate, but not lower than the bottom wage rate of the lower classification .
12.5 An employee (excluding Apprentice Firefighters) promoted out of the bargaining
unit may, within twenty-four (24) months and by mutual agreement between the City and the
Association, return to the unit.
12.6 Retired annuitants will be laid off prior to IAFF bargaining unit employees.
12.7 In the event of layoff or any station closure, Full Time Limited Term (Apprentice
Firefighter) employees will be the first bargaining unit classification to be laid off.
12.8 A Fire Prevention Officer who returns to and is qualified for a previously held
fire suppression position in the Department will return to the last fire suppression position held in
the Department prior to becoming a Fire Prevention Officer.
A laid off Fire Prevention Officer who previously held a Redding Fire Captain
position may displace a Fire Captain, if they are qualified to perform the duties of Fire Captain,
meet all requirements of the classification, and if such laid off Fire Prevention Officer has greater
combined Fire Captain and Fire Prevention Officer seniority than the Fire Captain being displaced.
A Fire Prevention Officer who previously held a Redding Fire Captain position
may be displaced by a laid off Fire Captain, if such laid off Fire Captain is qualified to perform
the duties of Fire Prevention Officer, meets all requirements of the classification and has greater
18
12538646.1 RE020-040
Fire Captain seniority than the combined Fire Captain and Fire Prevention Officer seniority of the
Fire Prevention Officer being displaced.
ARTICLE 13: LEAVE OF ABSENCE
13.1 Leave of absence may be granted to regular employees by the City Manager for
urgent and substantial reasons, up to a maximum of one year, (except when the employee is
receiving long term disability benefits, in which case a five (5) year time limit shall apply)
providing satisfactory arrangements can be made to perform the employee's duties without undue
interference with the normal routine of work. Inability to return to work after an employee's sick
leave has been exhausted will be considered as an urgent and substantial reason and in such cases
a leave will be granted.
13.2 A leave of absence will commence on and include the first work shift on which
the employee is absent and terminate with and include the work shift preceding the shift the
employee returns to work.
13.3 All applications for leave of absence shall be made in writing except when the
employee is unable to do so. The conditions under which an employee will be restored to
employment on the termination of leave of absence shall be clearly stated by the City in
conjunction with the granting of a leave of absence. Upon an employee's return to work after a
leave of absence, they will be reinstated to their former position and working conditions, providing
that they are capable of performing the duties of their former position, except that if there has been
reduction of forces or their position has been eliminated during said leave, they will be returned to
the position they would be in, had they not been on a leave of absence.
13.4 An employee's status as a regular employee will not be impaired by such leave
of absence and their seniority will accrue.
13.5 If an employee fails to return immediately on the expiration of their leave of
absence or if they accept other full-time employment while on leave, they will thereby forfeit the
leave of absence and terminate their employment with the City.
13.6 An employee on a leave of absence as provided herein shall not accrue vacation
or sick leave benefits nor maintain group health and welfare insurance coverage. An employee
may, however, at their option and expense, maintain their group health and welfare insurance
coverage providing the full monthly premium is received by the City Treasurer on or before the
first day of the month for which the premium is intended. Notwithstanding the above, however, if
the leave of absence is as a result of exhaustion of sick leave benefits an employee's group health
and welfare insurance may be maintained for up to three (3) calendar months on the normal
premium -sharing formula, providing the employee pays their share of the premium on a timely
basis.
13.7 Except for the one (1) year limitation of 13. 1, and the prohibition on other
employment in 13.5, a leave of absence for Union business may be granted by the City Manager
for up to a maximum of one (1) year, pursuant to the provisions of this Article.
13.8 Reproductive Loss Leave of Absences: Employees who are absent from work
due to a reproductive loss event are eligible for up to five (5) days of protected leave per event,
subject to a maximum of twenty (20) days in a 12 -month period. "Reproductive loss event" is
19
12538646:1 RE020-040
defined as "the day or, for multiple day events, the final day, of a failed adoption, failed surrogacy
or unsuccessful assisted reproduction." The reproductive loss leave is unpaid; however, employees
may use available accrued paid leave such as vacation, sick time, deferred time off, compensatory
time off, etc. The reproductive loss leave must be taken within three (3) months of the reproductive
loss event, but the leave days do not need to be consecutive.
ARTICLE 14: EXPENSES
14.1 Reimbursement for expenses incurred while conducting City business, i.e.,
traveling to authorized meetings, seminars, training sessions, luncheons and other events approved
by the Fire Chief, or his designee, shall be in accordance with the provisions established in the
City Council Resolution for Unrepresented City employees.
14.2 Employees who are assigned to temporary work at such distance from their regular
headquarters that it is impractical for them to return thereto each day, or to their regular place of
abode, will be allowed actual personal expenses for board and lodging for the duration of such
assignment, provided they board and lodge at places to be designated by the City. The time spent
by such employees in traveling to such temporary job at its beginning, to and from home on
holidays and weekends, and from such temporary job at its conclusion and any reasonable expense
incurred thereby will be paid by the City.

employees will be limited to 40 hours of paid sick leave in each year of employment. A minimum
increment of sick leave usage is two hours.
15.2 Sick leave shall be allowed for a non -work-related absence due to:

percentage set forth above shall be increased to sixty percent (60%).
Upon retirement, any sick leave pay out the employee is eligible to receive will be
transferred into the VantageCare Retirement Health Savings Plan on a pre-tax basis. The sick
leave payout amount will be calculated using the percentage levels described in the paragraph
above. However, if the sick leave> payout is less than $5,000, then the employee is not entitled to
participate in the VantageCare Retirement Health Savings Plan and shall receive a cash payout as
described in the paragraph above. Any sick leave amount remaining will be used as service credit
toward the employee's retirement benefit through CalPERS, pursuant to the contract between the

or injury, and subject to the approval of the employee's Department Director, Personnel Director and

80 or 112, as applicable, hours per incident. Once the employee returns to duty, sick leave accrual
hours will be applied to the negative sick leave account until it is zero. Should the employee terminate
City employment with a negative sick leave balance, appropriate adjustments will be made to final
paid leave cash pay -outs or other City monies owed the employee, if sufficient, otherwise the
employee shall directly reimburse the City for such advance. Such reimbursement will be waived for
employees who are terminally ill or totally disabled (100%).

20.1 A Regular or Full Time Limited Term (Apprentice Firefighter) employee who is
summoned for jury duty and is thus unable to perform their regular duties will be paid for the time
lost at their regular rate of pay. An employee must be in a paid status on both scheduled workdays
immediately adjacent to the jury duty in order to receive pay for such leave.
20.2 Any employee, at their request, shall be permitted to review their own personnel
file. The file may not, however, be removed from the Personnel Department. At the employee's
request or the request of their representative with the employee's written authorization, photo-
copies of information contained in the employee's personnel file will be provided at the City's
expense.
20.3 An employee who disagrees with the evaluator's statements or conclusions with
respect to the employee evaluation report shall have the right to review such evaluation report with
the City's Personnel Director and, upon request, shall have the right to have a Union representative
present.
20.4 The City of Redding recognizes the practice of employees trading shifts. In the
event a party to the shift trade does not report for duty, the employee originally scheduled by the
City will be held responsible. In the event an employee separates from employment prior to having
consummated a shift trade with another employee, the City will bear no responsibility for
reconciling wages. Probationary Fire Fighters and Full Time Limited Term (Apprentice
Firefighter) employees will not be allowed to trade shifts during the first six (6) months of
employment. After six (6) months, with a satisfactory performance evaluation, a probationary Fire
Fighter will be allowed up to three (3) trades per quarter so long as trades do not interfere with the
probationary training program. All shift trades shall be consummated within a three hundred sixty-
five (365) day period.

limit the useful lifetime of employee disciplinary documents. The City and the Union agree to
adhere to the City's Discipline Policy (7/1/05), Conduct and Honesty Policy (5/1/87), Redding
Fire Department Policy 2.17 (2/20/07) and the Redding Fire Department Policy 2.19 — Rules of
Conduct (2/20/07).
20.6 Because of the nature of employees' duties, all employees shall be required to
provide the Department a personal telephone number where the employee can be contacted.
20.7 Whenever any employee is subpoenaed to testify in court as a result of their
employment and is thus unable to perform their regular duties, they shall be paid for all regular
time lost. Whenever an employee is subpoenaed or requested to appear for the State or any other
governmental agency for non -work related reasons, the employee may choose to take paid time
off which is either vacation or CTO. Leave to attend court shall be utilized in minimum four (4)
hour blocks to reduce disruption to the work period. Mandatory callbacks shall be utilized, if
necessary, to backfill behind this type of leave.
20.8 No less than two (2) employees covered by this Memorandum of Understanding
shall be assigned to each structure firefighting unit. One (1) of the two (2) assigned employees
26

test on the third consecutive attempt, such employee will be terminated from employment.
Employees will have at least three (3) months between attempts on the test; but must retake
unsuccessful attempts no later than four (4) months from the last attempt. The parties agree, that
prior to termination, all applicable rights of the parties under law will be followed.
20.10 A Union business time bank is established. Members may voluntarily donate
earned vacation time to the bank for use by Union members while conducting Union business. For
purposes of this article, Union business shall not include an employee's participation in or
preparation for a disciplinary hearing associated with City action against that employee. Vacation
credits being donated and granted are on the basis of the dollar value of the vacation credits. Use
of time bank hours is to be authorized by the Union and scheduled in the same manner as vacation.
20.11 Meals will be provided during incidents in accordance to the Fire Department
Policy: Fire Line Meals. Station Coverage Meals will be authorized by the Fire Battalion Chief,
on a case-by-case basis, for employees who request such meals when they are called back to duty
to cover a Station. The maximum expenditure per employee, including tax and tip, for such meals
shall be as follows:
Meal
Amount
Dinner
$25.00
Lunch
$15.00
Breakfast
$15.00
The above meal rates may be adjusted upward as determined by the City Manager.
20-12 Leave for children's school activities will be granted according to Fire
Department Policy (SOP 42.27), dated March 31, 2017.
20.13 Designated employees will be compensated for their participation in scheduled
workgroup activities. Activities associated with the program/project outside of scheduled
activities will be accomplished during normally scheduled work shifts. When activities associated
with the program/project cannot be accomplished either during a workgroup activity or during a
normal work shift, and the activities cannot be accomplished in another manner, the workgroup
manager shall have the authority to authorize compensation. Employees assigned to a workgroup
will be allowed to restructure their daily workload to provide time for workgroup activities,
providing that training, fire prevention and other assignments are completed. This may require
that certain routine or workgroup activities be conducted beyond the normal workday.
20.14 Participation in CAL FIRE Incident Management Teams:
(a) Participation in this program will include employees specifically requested
by CAL FIRE with the concurrence of the Fire Chief.
(b) Participation by employees will be voluntary.
27
12538646.1 RE020-040
(c) Employees will be expected to participate in team meetings and related
training. Meetings will occur approximately five to six days each year and may be held outside of
our geographic area. CAL FIRE may provide transportation to and from a meeting, along with
meals and other expenses directly to the employee. The City will reimburse employees for travel
and other reasonable expenses not provided by CAL FIRE in accordance with existing City policy.
CAL FIRE will not reimburse the City for any expenses associated with the meetings. When away
at a team meeting, the City will provide coverage for the employee's normal duty days only.
Employees will serve as CAL FIRE volunteers on their off-duty days consistent with FLSA
provisions (U.S.C. Section 203 (e)(4)(13)(1988)).
(d) As with any situation where we provide personnel through the Statewide
Mutual Aid System, the City will be reimbursed for expenses associated with an actual team
activation. Therefore, employees will receive their normal and/or overtime compensation from
the City upon team deployment. During activation, CAL FIRE will either provide the employees
with a vehicle, or reimburse the employees for expenses associated with using their personal
vehicle.
(e) Teams are assigned week-long "stand-by" periods during the course of the
year. No stand-by compensation will be provided to the employees during these periods.
20.15 The City shall not utilize any combination of "on-call/seasonal, or temporary"
employees in lieu of Regular employees, Union recognizes the City's right to hire part-time
temporary "on-call/seasonal firefighters" to work during declared "fire season" which is normally
during the months of May through October. Union also recognizes the City's right to continue the
"on-call" program, which is utilized to assist Regular employees at the scene of emergency
incidents and at various fire prevention activities,
The purpose of the Full Time Limited Term (Apprentice Firefighter) program is to allow for the
staffing of three (3) fire personnel (Captain, Engineer, Firefighter/Full Time Limited Term
(Apprentice Firefighter)) on each fire engine apparatus and a second Firefighter or Full Time
Limited Term (Apprentice Firefighter) on fire truck apparatus. The City and Union agree that the
number of Full Time Limited Term (Apprentice Firefighter) positions at any one time will not
exceed the number of Regular Firefighters,
Once nine (9) Full Time Limited Term (Apprentice Firefighter) positions are filled, any
hiring of Firefighter positions thereafter would be at a ratio of three Regular Firefighters to three
Full Time Limited Term (Apprentice Firefighter) positions, until the total of fifteen (15) Regular
Firefighter, and fifteen (15) Full Time Limited Term (Apprentice Firefighter) positions has been
met.
If the City chooses to hire additional Captains, Engineers, or Firefighters to cover for
employee leave, they must first hire Firefighters to replace all Full Time Limited Term (Apprentice
Firefighter) positions.
This does not preclude the City from its right to layoffs or station closures, which is addressed in
Article 12.8.
20.16 Where required under their job classification, employees shall obtain'a California
Class C Driver license with Firefighter Endorsement "P or higher driver's license class and
participate in an annual physical approximately every twelve (12) months. See Exhibit F "The
28

Fire Administration as documentation of the annual physical.

and fifteen (15) will be deck hands, excluding Management members. Existing team members
will continue to serve on the Team and future Team members will be selected from among those
who apply, according to bargaining unit seniority. The City and the Union will conduct an annual
review of Boat Team activities beginning February, 2008, and each year thereafter.
20.18 The City and the Union agree to meet and agree over technical rescue capabilities
within the Department to include knowledge, skills, and abilities to engage in confined space,
trench, high angle, water, heavy equipment/machinery, and building collapse rescues.
20.19 The City will request a CAL EMA Engine that will be staffed by the City under the
terms of an OES agreement to be developed by the department.
20.20 Once the City is successful at obtaining a CAL EMA Engine, the Union agrees to
train and participate in Low Angle Rope Rescue Operational (LARRO) training on duty and
provide this service to the community. The Department will provide state registered instructors for
this training,
20.21 The Union and the City have developed and agreed to a Rescue Systems I Program
that includes voluntary membership participation, selection process, initial and ongoing training
to maintain proficiency in this service. The continued training for this program will be scheduled
on the participating member's off duty days and the member will be eligible for overtime under
the terms of Article 9, but will not be eligible for special duty stipend.
20.22 It is agreed that all fire personnel, regardless of rank, with the exception of
probationary Fire Fighters, will be allowed to participate in Fire Assignments outside the City
provided they have the appropriate training and qualifications under the terms of the Overhead
Fire Assignment procedure. Management will establish an availability list of qualified employees
to be ordered by outside agencies for these assignments that will provide for rotation to allow all
employees an equitable opportunity to participate. In addition, qualified members on the list can
be requested by an outside agency, regardless of their position on the list. Probationary Fire
Fighters will be able to participate in strike team assignments as part of an Engine company.
Employees assigned to a reimbursable strike team/overhead deployment (Line EMT, PIC},
Overhead or other recognized positions) shall receive a ten percent (10%) differential for any
reimbursable strike team/overhead incident. The pay differential shall apply from the time of
deployment to the employee's return from the deployment (i.e., portal to portal). "Portal to portal"
shall be defined as beginning at the time of dispatch to the return to jurisdiction when equipment
and personnel are in service and available for City response.
20.23 The City and the Union recognize the utilization of retired annuitants by allowing
employees to work in their previous position up to a maximum not to exceed nine hundred sixty
(960) hours under the terms of the Retired Annuitant Program including the conditions that apply
to retired annuitants as outlined in the Retired Annuitant Expectation document.

21.2 Group Health and Welfare Insurance Coverage: All regular employees and Full
Time Limited Term (Apprentice Firefighter) employees are eligible to participate in a group health
and welfare insurance benefit program, which includes the medical, prescription, dental, vision,
life and long term disability insurance plans, effective the first day of employment. The City shall
pay the cost of the program for both employee and dependents as indicated below.
(A) Life Insurance: Twice annual salary for employee, $3,000 for employee's
dependents. The City will pay the full cost of the premiums. More specific benefit information is
provided in the carrier's booklet.
(B) Health Benefits: The City has established a Section 125 Plan to redirect the
portion of the employee's salary to pay, on a pre-tax basis, the employee's contribution toward the
medical, prescription, dental and vision insurance composite premium rate.
The City offers two health plans, a "Base Plan" and an optional "Premium Plan". All
eligible employees will be enrolled in the "Base Plan" and will have the option on a voluntary
basis to enroll in the "Premium Plan" initially, and during the open enrollment period for each
subsequent calendar year. Eligible employees that fail to complete the annual open enrollment will
automatically be placed in the group health insurance plan they were enrolled in the previous year.
Changes will be effective at the beginning of the following calendar year. The City's contribution
toward the monthly group health and welfare insurance composite premium rate for the "Base
Plan" shall be ninety percent (90%) and the employee will pay ten percent (10%) of the premium
rate through a bi-weekly payroll deduction. Employees electing to enroll in the "Premium Plan"
will be responsible for premiums beyond the City's contribution of 90% of the "Base Plan"
composite rate,
Effective Calendar Year 2024, all employees participating in the Group Health and
Welfare Insurance Plan will pay fifteen percent (15%) co -share of premium. The City's
contribution toward the monthly group health and welfare insurance composite premium rate for
the "Base Plan7' shall be 8510. Employees electing to enroll in the "Buy Up Plan" will be
responsible for premiums beyond the City's contribution of 85% of the "Base Plan" composite
rate.
Effective Calendar Year 2025, all employees participating in the Group Health and Welfare
Insurance Plan will pay twenty percent (20%) co -share of premium. The City's contribution
toward the monthly group health and welfare insurance composite premium rate for the "Base
Plan" shall be 80%. Employee electing to enroll in the "Buy Up Plan" will be responsible for
premiums beyond the City's contribution of 80% of the "Base Plan" composite rate.
In an effort to minimize the impact of annual composite premium increases/decreases for
the employee, the rate change will be limited to a maximum of twelve and one-half percent (12'/2%)
per year (or the actual percent increase in actual claim costs from the previous calendar year,
whichever is lower).
32
12538646.1 RE020-040
In the event the composite premium rate change is less than 121/2%, the employee's percent
of the rate shall be the actual percent change unless costs from the year before need to be made up.
Effective January 1, 2013, the rate change will be limited to a maximum of twelve and one-half
percent (12 1/2%) of the "Base Plan" per year (or the actual percent increase in actual costs from
the previous calendar year, whichever is lower). The Association and the City agree that costs not
made up prior to the end of this Agreement shall be subject to meet and confer in the successive
Agreement.
For specifics regarding the City's Group Health and Welfare Benefit Plan, refer to the
Benefit Summary Plan Description.
The City reserves the right to modify the group insurance composite rate structure to
establish classes of coverage and rates in an effort to create a rate structure more compatible to
employee claims experience. The City and the Union agree to meet and confer during the term of
this agreement over changes to the group health premium contribution formula/structure when
another City of Redding employee group agrees to a change in the group health premium
contribution formula/structure. The City will not unilaterally impose a change to the group health
premium contribution formula pursuant to this section. The meet and confer process per this
section is limited to the issue of group health. The balance of the MOU remains in full force and
effect.
Employees with spousal coverage will be allowed to "opt out" of the City's group health and
welfare insurance coverage (cease paying their share of the premium) January 1, 2013. Employees
"opting out" of the City's group health benefits must provide proof of alternative health care
coverage on an annual basis during the open enrollment period.
The City and the Union recognize that it is the on-going plan of the City that all bargaining
units will have the same group insurance benefits.
Q Prescription Benefit: Employee co -payments as shown in the following table:
Note: Maintenance medications (i.e., a medication taken longer than 60 days) that are filled at the
retail co -pay amount more than twice will be filled at the mail order co -pay amount.
The cost of the Prescription benefit program is outlined under "Health Benefits" above.
33
12538646.1 RE020-040
(D) Dental Benefits. The premium cost of the Dental benefit program is outlined
under "Health Benefits" above. For specifics regarding the City's Dental Plan, refer to the Benefit
Summary Plan Description.
(E) Long Term Disability: The City has agreed to pay an equivalent monthly
premium amount to the Union to purchase their own long-term disability policy. The monthly
amount shall be equal to the premium the City would pay if Union members participated in the
City's highest monthly benefit tier long-term disability program for safety employees.
(F) Vision Benefits: The premium cost of the Vision benefit program is outlined
under "Health Benefits" above. For specifics regarding the City's Vision Plan, refer to the Benefit
Summary Plan Description.
Effective January 1, 2013, health benefits not provided by Blue Shield will no longer be offered.
21.3 All active employees hired prior to October 1, 2011, who retire from the City and
are eligible for CalPERS benefits upon separation of service shall be eligible for the City to pay a
fifty percent (50%) proportionate share of costs of the insurance premium should the retiring
employee elect to participate in the group health, dental and vision plan also made available to
active employees. To initially qualify for the benefit, the employee must go directly from active
status to retiree status with CalPERS. To maintain a qualified status and to continue to receive the
benefit, the retired employee must continue the group medical insurance during retirement without
a break in coverage. Payments by the City will be discontinued upon termination of group medical
insurance coverage by the City retiree or loss of qualified status by the retiree. Following the death
of a retiree, the surviving spouse, if any, may continue the insurance and the City will continue the
benefit on the same terms and conditions for the life of the surviving spouse.
All active employees hired on or after October 1, 2011 who retire from the City with five
(5) or more years of City service (and eligible for CalPERS benefits upon separation of service)
shall be eligible for the City to pay a proportionate share of costs of the insurance premium should
the retiring employee elect to participate in any group health, dental and vision plan also made
available to active employees. To initially qualify for the benefit, the employee must go directly
from active status to retiree status with CalPERS and continue the group medical insurance without
a break in coverage. To maintain a qualified status, and to continue to receive the benefit, the
retired employee, and their covered spouses who reach Medicare A/B eligibility age must enroll
in Medicare. For those retirees who qualify, the City shall pay a proportionate share of the cost of
the insurance premiums in accordance with the following formula: 2% for every year of service
with the City of Redding up to a maximum of 50%. Years of service include all Full Time Limited
Term (Apprentice Firefighter) employment, regardless of break in service until regular employee
status occurs. Payments by the City will be discontinued upon termination of group medical
insurance coverage by the City retiree or loss of qualified status by the retiree. The City will not
contribute payments on behalf of any retiree except as set forth above. Following the death of a
retiree the surviving spouse, if any, may continue the insurance and the City will continue the
benefit on the same terms and conditions for the life of the surviving spouse.
Retiring employees who were hired or worked under a different Memorandum of
Understanding (MOU) or City Resolution shall be vested with the greatest retiree premium co -
share formula in effect and for which that employee qualified for during his or her term of
employment.
34
12538646.1 RE020-040
Beginning Calendar Year 2013, the City will offer two health plans, a "Base Plan" and
an optional "Premium Plan". All retired employees participating in the group health plan will be
enrolled in the "Base Plan" and will have the option on a voluntary basis to enroll in the "Premium
Plan" initially, and during the open enrollment period for each subsequent calendar year. Changes
will be effective at the beginning of the following calendar year. The City shall pay a proportionate
share of the cost of the "Base Plan" insurance premiums as outlined above. Participating retired
employees electing to enroll in the "Premium Plan" will be responsible for premiums beyond the
City's contribution of the "Base Plan" composite rate.
21.4 Regular and Full Time Limited Tenn (Apprentice Firefighter) employees are
eligible to participate in the City's Deferred Compensation Plan through voluntary payroll
deductions from the employee's pay.
21.5 During the term of this agreement, the City and the Union agree to meet and
discuss the recommendations of the Health Insurance Committee.
ARTICLE 22: ENTIRE AGREEMENT
22.1 The parties acknowledge that during the negotiations which resulted in this
Memorandum of Understanding each had the unlimited right and opportunity to make demands
and proposals with respect to any subject or matter not removed by law from the scope of negotia-
tions, and that the understandings and agreements arrived at by the parties after the exercise of that
right and opportunity are set forth in the Memorandum of Understanding. Therefore, the City and
the Union, for the duration of this Memorandum of Understanding, each voluntarily and
unqualifiedly waives the right, and each agrees that the other shall not be obligated to bargain with
respect to any subject or matter referred to, or covered in this Memorandum of Understanding, or
with respect to any subject or matter not specifically referred to, or covered in this Memorandum
of Understanding, even though such subjects or matters may not have been within the knowledge
or contemplation of either or both of the parties at the time they negotiated or signed this
Memorandum of Understanding. Any other prior existing understanding or agreements by the
parties, whether formal or informal, regarding any such matters are hereby superseded or
terminated in their entirety, Both parties acknowledge that such waiver and relinquishment as set
forth above carries with it the commensurate prohibition for either party to effect a unilateral
change in an employment condition falling within the scope of negotiations under Government
Code Section 3500 et. seq.
ARTICLE 23: TERM
23.1 This Memorandum of Understanding, having taken effect as of July 1, 1974, and
having thereafter been amended from time to time shall continue in full force and effect until the
thirty first day of December, 2027 and thereafter from year to year unless written notice of change
or termination shall be given by either patty ninety (90) days prior to the expiration date above or
the expiration date of any year thereafter. The bargaining for the Memorandum of Understanding
will begin no later than January 1, 2026, except where mutually agreed otherwise by the parties.

not met by off-duty personnel following an all -call paging for a major emergency (defined as one
in which available on -duty personnel are not sufficient to handle a critical situation), the City may
be giving written notice to the Union to reopen negotiations on the subject of establishing
procedures for off-duty employee response necessary to meet the public's need for fire protection
service.
35
12538646.1 RE020-040

must be specified in the notice, and until a satisfactory conclusion is reached in the matter of such
changes, the original provision shall remain in full force and effect.
23.3 This Memorandum of Understanding shall not be amended or supplemented
except by agreement of the parties hereto, reduced to writing and duly signed by each.
23.4 Any provision of this Memorandum of Understanding which may be in conflict
with any Federal or State law, regulation or executive order shall be suspended and inoperative to
the extent of and for the duration of such conflict; the balance of this Memorandum of
Understanding, however, shall remain in ftill force and effect. The parties may, however, by
mutual agreement reopen negotiations on the impact of any conflict.

L 1 A
The Firefighters' Procedural Bill of Rights Act ("FBOR;" Cal. Gov. Code §§ 3250, et seq.) was enacted
January 1, 2008. The purpose of this policy is to formally implement the additional rights and
protections afforded to firefighters by this new law and provide guidance regarding complaints against
personnel and investigation of those complaints.
1. Complaint: Any allegation of poor service or misconduct made by a citizen or
employee against a member(s) of the Fire Department (Department) is a complaint.
Complaints of misconduct must allege a violation of law, Redding Fire Department
Policy, Procedure or Order or City Policy or Procedure.
a. Complaints lodged by civilians will be classified as "civilians
complaints."
b. Complaints lodged by employees/supervisors will be classified as
"internal complaints."
Examples of complaints contemplated by this policy include, but are not limited to,
the following:
• Sexual Harassment/Discrimination
• Criminal Conduct
• Racial/ethnic slurs
• Poor service
• Discourtesy
• Improper Procedure
• Conduct Unbecoming
2. Inquiry: If before or during the investigation it is determined that a citizen is
merely requesting clarification of a policy or procedure, that complaint, with the
concurrence of the Fire Chief or the Deputy Chief, may be considered an "inquiry"
and resolved informally and outside of the parameters of this policy. The Fire
Chief, or the Deputy Fire Chief, shall be responsible for inquiry responses,
12538646.1 RE020-040 59
If any firefighter is under investigation, or subject to an "inquiry" — as that term is
defined above — by his or her commanding officer, or any other member designated by
the Fire Chief, that could lead to punitive action, any interrogation shall be conducted
under the conditions specified in the FBOR. "Punitive action" means any action that
may lead to dismissal, demotion, suspension, reduction in salary, written reprimand,
or transfer for purposes of punishment.
1. Non -supervisory employees shall immediately refer complaints to an on -duty
supervisor (i.e., Fire Captain, Battalion Chief). Supervisors shall accept complaints
in writing, in person, or by telephone or from anonymous persons. The purpose
for this is to encourage civilians or employees to bring forward legitimate
grievances regarding poor service or misconduct by Department members.
Civilians and members of the Department will not be discouraged in any manner
from making a complaint.
2. Supervisors shall immediately record complaints on a Complaint Control Form. A
copy of the Complaint Control Form is attached to this policy as Appendix A.
Supervisors may resolve minor complaints with appropriate corrective action
including non -disciplinary counseling and training. Supervisors should report all
complaints to the on -duty Battalion Chief as soon as possible. The Battalion Chief
shall direct the supervisor to fill out a Complaint Control Form when appropriate.
3, The supervisor accepting a complaint in person shall give a copy of the Complaint
Control Form to the complainant. The original shall be forwarded to the Deputy
Chief via the Battalion Chief on duty. In the case of a complaint of serious
misconduct of a criminal nature, the Fire Chief or the Deputy Fire Chief shall be
notified immediately by the on -duty Battalion Chief.
4. Upon receipt of the Complaint Control Forin, the Fire Chief, or the Deputy Fire
Chief will notify the complainant in writing that the complaint has been received
and that an investigation has been initiated (or other appropriate corrective action
has been taken). A copy of the Complaint Control Form will also be mailed to the
complainant if it has not already been provided to him or her by the accepting
supervisor.
12538646.1 RE020-040 60
5. The Deputy Chief will be responsible for assignment of the complaint for
investigation. The Deputy Chief shall retain the original Complaint Control Form
for tracking purposes. A copy of the Complaint Control Form will be forwarded
to the investigator assigned to investigate the complaint. Unless deemed
confidential by the Fire Chief to protect the integrity of the investigation, the
Complaint Control Form shall be given to the Department member(s) against
whom the complaint was lodged along with the notice of interview.
6. The Deputy Chief shall be responsible for notifying the complainant in writing by
registered mail within thirty (30) days of the disposition of the complaint.
Additionally, the Deputy Chief or assigned investigator will notify, in writing, the
Department member(s) against whom the complaint was lodged and the member's
supervising officer of the disposition of the complaint.
The letter sent to the complainant will only include the following information:
• Finding(s) of the investigation as defined in section C5 below.
• Name of the investigator who investigated the complaint.
If an allegation resulted in a finding of "Sustained", the letter will state that
"appropriate corrective/disciplinary action will be taken against the involved
Department member". The name of the involved Department member(s) and the
specific action to be taken will not be included in the letter.
1. The supervisor accepting the complaint shall be responsible for accurately and fully
completing the Complaint Control Form. The supervisor shall obtain preliminary
statements from the complainant and any immediately available witnesses.
Additionally, the supervisor shall collect and preserve any physical evidence that
is readily available or may be time or weather sensitive.
2. In the case of complaints of a minor nature (non -disciplinary), the Battalion Chief
shall have the discretion of assigning a complaint to the Captain level for
investigation or appropriate corrective action (i.e., training, non -disciplinary
counseling, etc.)
3. Allegations that a Department member violated a criminal law (felony or
misdemeanor) shall be investigated by the Redding Police Department or the
appropriate outside law enforcement agency, The internal administrative
12538646.1 RE020-040 61
investigation will be conducted concurrent with or after the completion of the
criminal investigation, at the discretion of the Fire Chief or his/her designee.
Supervisors becoming aware of a criminal investigation involving a Department
member who may be suspected of committing a misdemeanor or felony crime shall
immediately complete a Complaint Control Form and route it to the Deputy Chief
through the on -duty Battalion Chief.
4. RIGHTS OF SUBJECT OF INVESTIGATION:
a. Arson investigators, by virtue of their peace officer status, are afforded
statutory protections listed in the Public Safety Officers' Procedural Bill of
Rights Act [Government Code § 3300 et seq].
b. If it is determined in the course of an investigation that an employee could be
subject to punitive action, prior to obtaining a statement from the employee,
the employee will be informed of the nature of the investigation and given an
"Admonition Form" explaining his/her rights as an investigation subject. The
Arson Investigator Admonition Form is attached to this Policy as Appendix
C. The Fire Unit/Fire Management Admonition of Rights form is attached
to this Policy as Appendix D
5. At the conclusion of the investigation the investigator shall make a finding
regarding each allegation using the preponderance of evidence standard. The
finding for each allegation shall be one of the following:
Unfounded: The alleged act did not occur.
Exonerated: The alleged act occurred but was justified, legal and proper.
Not Sustained: The alleged misconduct could neither be proved nor disproved,
given the existing evidence.

14. Choose to admonish with either a) or b) depending on the circumstance,
a) The City has reason to believe that Your conduct could possibly lead to criminal charges
and therefore the City has obtained and is presenting You with a formal written grant of use
immunity in accordance with California Government Code section 3253(e)(1) from the Shasta
County District Attorney. Use immunity bars a prosecutor from making direct use of your
statements in a subsequent criminal proceeding or from using information or any other
evidence that was obtained indirectly or derived from your statements against you. Use
immunity is not the same as transactional immunity, which would bar a prosecutor from
charging you with the crime that is the subject of your statements. Consequently, a criminal
prosecutor could still bring charges against you based on other evidence.
OR
b) At this time the City has no reason to believe that your conduct could possibly lead to
criminal charges. However, during the course of this interview should facts come to light to
indicate that your conduct could lead to criminal charges being filed, the City will stop the

obtain and present You with a formal written grant of use immunity from the Shasta County
District Attorney before proceeding any further. Use immunity bars a prosecutor from making
direct use of your statements in a subsequent criminal proceeding or from using information or
any other evidence that was obtained indirectly or derived from your statements against you.
