BACKGROUND/RELATED STRATEGIC GOAL:

Martin County has roughly 980 full time positions assigned under the purview of the Board. Of those positions, there are three different groups: International Association of Firefighters Local 2959 (IAFF), Teamsters Local 769 (Teamsters), and Non-Bargaining. IAFF and Teamsters are both labor unions with contracts that are negotiated and provide for any monetary adjustment that can be applicable to the positions within their union.

In the past, when salary adjustments have been approved for the Teamster bargaining unit, the Board has approved similar salary adjustments for those positions that are identified as Non-Bargaining. The Board approved a $.63 per hour or three-percent salary adjustment, whichever is greater, for the roughly 330 positions that are part of the Teamsters union. Staff is requesting that the Board approve the same salary adjustment for the Non-Bargaining positions effective as of October 1, 2018. The County Attorney and County Administrator would also receive this salary adjustment per both of their employment contracts.
