Personnel Policies for Non-Ministerial Paid Staff

Amended by the Board of Directors 7-1-05

This issue of the Personnel Policies for Non-Ministerial Paid Staff, approved by the Board of Directors on July 1, 2005, supersedes all previous issues of this document and any inconsistent policy statements or memoranda that may be in existence as of the approval date hereof. The Church reserves the rights to revise, modify, delete or add to any or all policies, procedures, work rules, or benefits stated herein or in any other document, except for the policy of at-will employment. However, any such changes must be in writing and must be signed by the President of the Church. The Church also reserves the right to determine the interpretation of the provisions of this document that applies to any specific employee.

This document and any subsequent written changes hereto will be distributed to all non-ministerial paid staff so that all such employees will be aware of the current policies and procedures. No oral statements or representations can in any way change or alter the provisions of this document.

A. NONDISCRIMINATION POLICY, JOB DOCUMENTATION, AND HIRING

1. Equal Opportunity Statement

The Unitarian Universalist Community Church of Santa Monica is an equal opportunity employer. Church policy prohibits discrimination based on race, religion, sex, color, national origin, political or union affiliation, marital status, sexual orientation, age, disability, or any other consideration made unlawful by federal, state, or local laws. Employment is based on an applicant's qualifications for the position, as described in the appropriate job description, and decisions affecting current employees are based on merit.

The Church does not discriminate in hiring on the basis of religion, except for positions in which religious orientation may be a bona fide occupational qualification (e.g., Director of Religious Education).

2. Job Descriptions

Before recruitment and hiring into any paid staff position may proceed, a Board-approved job description and adequate provision for the position in the Church budget must exist.

A job description is developed, and approved by the Board, for each paid staff position. Each job description indicates the functions to be performed, to whom the employee reports, whether hiring into the position requires ratification by the Board, whether the employee is Exempt or non-Exempt, the average number of working hours per week, and, if inherently required, the specific work schedule.

Non-Exempt positions, those that entail the performance of specific assigned tasks, with compensation dependent on the time spent in performing them, are compensated on an hourly basis. If a non-Exempt employee works for the Church more than eight hours in any twenty-four hour period, the hours in excess of eight are compensated with overtime pay, paid at 1.5 times the regular hourly rate. Exempt positions are compensated on a salary basis.

Job descriptions are developed, for final approval by the Board, by the supervisor of the position in collaboration with the pertinent departmental (religious education, music, or administration) committee and the Personnel Committee. The Personnel Committee is responsible for recommending to the Board whether hiring into the position should or should not require Board ratification and whether the position will be classified as Exempt or non-Exempt. Hiring into any position with a regular schedule of at least 20 hours per week must be Board-ratified. The Personnel Committee also is responsible for verifying that the specified number of hours per week is consistent with the budget available.

The Church reserves the right to modify, restructure, add or eliminate paid staff positions at any time, with or without notice.

3. Recruitment and Hiring

Recruitment and hiring into Exempt positions is carried out collaboratively by the supervisor of the position (the Minister or the pertinent staff director, such as the Director of Religious Education, Director of Music, or Church Administrator), the chairperson of the pertinent departmental committee (religious education, music, or administration), and the chairperson of the Personnel Committee. An ad hoc search and selection task force may be established, with members from the departmental committee and the Personnel Committee. This task force solicits and evaluates applications for the position, interviews selected candidates, and presents its recommendations to the supervisor of the position and the Minister. On concurrence by these two, review of any proposed offer by the Personnel Committee or its chairperson, and ratification by the Board when required by the job description, the supervisor is authorized to hire the recommended candidate. Salary is determined by experience and other qualifications within the framework of the Church's budget.

His/her signature documents acceptance of the job description by the employee being hired thereon.

Recruitment and hiring into non-Exempt positions is carried out by, and in a manner deemed appropriate by, the pertinent staff director.

4. Statement Of At-Will Employment Status

Employment by the Church, other than of ministers, is employment at-will. Employment at-will may be terminated with or without cause and with or without notice at any time by the employee or the Church. To the extent feasible, the Church pursues a practice of consulting with an employee well in advance of any action that might affect the nature or existence of his/her job or his/her continuation in that job. However, neither the usual pursuit of that informal practice nor anything in this or any other document or statement shall limit the right to terminate non-ministerial employment at-will. Nothing in this document or any other document, including benefit plan descriptions, creates or is intended to create a promise or representation of continued employment for any non-ministerial employee.

No member of the paid staff (including the Minister) or other representative of the Church, elected or appointed, has authority to enter into any agreement for non-ministerial employment for any specified period of time or to make any agreement for non-ministerial employment other than at-will. Only the Board of Directors has the authority to make any such agreement and then only in writing.

B. BENEFITS

1. Full-Time Employees

An employee regularly schedule to work an average of at least 30 hours per week is considered a full-time employee. Full-time employees are eligible for full benefits provided by the Church.

2. Part-Time Employees

An employee regularly scheduled to work an average of at least 20 hours but less than 30 hours per week is considered a part-time employee. Part-time employees are eligible for prorated benefits.

3. Occasional Employees

An employee regularly scheduled to work less than 20 hours per week is considered an occasional employee. Occasional employees are not eligible for benefits.

4. Temporary and Informal Employees

An employee whose employment is not expected to continue for as long as six months, or who is employed for special tasks of a non-continuing nature, is referred to as a temporary employee.

An employee who is employed on an on-call or otherwise irregular basis is referred to as an informal employee.

Temporary and informal employees are not eligible for paid vacation or medical and pension benefits except where mandated by applicable law.

5. Payroll Tax Withholding, Workers' Compensation, and Unemployment Insurance

All employees are subject to applicable withholding for federal and state income taxes and Social Security and state disability insurance, and are entitled to unemployment and workers' compensation insurance benefits to the extent provided by applicable law and regulations.

6. Medical Plan Benefits

Full-time employees are eligible (without cost to them) for individual membership in the Unitarian Universalist Community Church group medical plan. For part-time, the Church will contribute, directly to the plan provider, a fraction of the cost of individual group membership equal to the ratio of the employee's average workweek to 30 hours. This pro-rata contribution to the cost of medical plan coverage is payable only to the plan provider, and is not available to the employee if she/he elects not to pay the remainder required to purchase such coverage. Both full-time and part-time employees become eligible for medical plan benefits, as described in this paragraph, immediately on their date of hire.

If the plan provider for any reason refuses or terminates coverage for a full-time or part-time employee, the Church will set aside monthly the amount it would otherwise pay to the plan provider for group membership for that employee. This amount may be applied toward other medical coverage arranged for by the employee, or otherwise will be held in a separate fund used to pay medical bills incurred by the employee up to, but not exceeding, the amount in the fund at the time the bills are presented to the Church for payment.

7. Pension Benefits

Full-time and part-time employees participate (without cost to them) in the UUA Pension Plan, beginning at the completion of their first year of employment as specified by the Plan. According to the published terms of this Plan, it is a defined-contribution plan (in which a fixed amount is contributed and invested each month), the payout at retirement depends on the performance of the investments during the period of participation, and the invested funds are fully vested (owned by the employee) from the beginning of participation. The Church makes monthly contributions to the Plan equal to thirteen and one-half percent (13.5%) of the employee's salary.

In addition, any Full or Part Time employee may, subject to tax code limits, take a voluntary reduction in salary and have the Church contribute the reduction amount on a pre-tax basis to a Tax Sheltered Annuity plan Such contributions are in addition to the Church-paid contributions to the UUA Pension Plan described above.

C. HOLIDAYS, VACATION, SICK, PERSONAL LEAVE; SHORT TERM DISABILITY

1. Holidays

Unless specified otherwise in a particular job description, the national holidays of New Years Day, President's Day, Martin Luther King's Birthday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas are paid holidays for all Full Time employees who would normally work on those days. Employees not normally scheduled to work on the day of the week upon which a holiday falls will receive 8 hours of compensatory time to be used during the same week or the week immediately following, scheduled with approval of his/her supervisor. Part-time employees receive a pro-rated amount of compensatory time based on their normal schedule as a percentage of a 30-hour week.

2. Paid Vacation

All Full Time employees receive two weeks paid vacation per year, plus an additional day of vacation per year for each year of employment after five and before fifteen years of employment,. The vacation allowance is accrued daily, starting on the date of hire. Part Time employees earn vacation on a prorated basis, based on the percentage of their normal work schedule to a 30-hour week.

Subject to clearance of specific dates with the employee's immediate supervisor, vacation may be taken at any time during the year with the exception of the period between Thanksgiving and Christmas and the week immediately prior to and the week immediately following the beginning of the Church program year in September.

Unused vacation may be carried over to the following year with the limitation that, at any time, the total vacation accrued and not yet taken may not exceed four weeks. If that point is reached, vacation accrual ceases until the vacation accrued but not yet taken drops below four weeks.

3. Sick Leave

Sick leave is earned by full-time employees at the rate of one day per month, and by part-time employees at a rate reduced from that by the ratio of the employee's average workweek to 30 hours). Sick leave is applicable to sickness or disability only, and is not applicable to personal absences for other reasons.

Unused sick leave may be carried over to the following year with the limitation that, at any time, the total sick leave accrued and not yet taken, including any such sick leave accrued in that following year, may not exceed the amount of sick leave normally accrued in 12 months. If that point is reached, sick leave accrual ceases until the sick leave accrued and not yet taken drops below the amount of sick leave normally accrued in 12 months.

4. Parental Leave

Following the birth of a child, mothers who are Full Time employees receive six weeks of paid leave. Part Time employees receive a prorated amount of Parental Leave based on a percentage of the Part Time employee’s work schedule to 30 hours.

If an employee becomes a parent through either childbirth or adoption, he/she is eligible for up to six months of unpaid leave (six months minus six weeks in the case of birth mothers). The leave must be completed within eight months of the birth or adoption. Such unpaid leave must be negotiated with the Minister and may be full-time or part-time. Such leave is contingent upon the following: good level of prior performance, availability of a trained individual to cover during the absence, specification of the duration of the leave in one-month increments, willingness to maintain communication during the leave, and expectation of subsequent full resumption of employee duties. The period of unpaid leave may not exceed the length of the employee’s employment prior to the beginning of the leave.

The Church will continue to make medical plan and retirement plan payments, as applicable, during the period of parental leave. However, holidays, vacation and sick leave will not be accrued during the period of unpaid leave.

5. Bereavement Leave

Full Time employees receive one week paid leave in the event of death of an immediate family member (parent, spouse or committed partner, child, sibling). One day paid leave is given on the death of other relatives or personal friends.

6. Personal Leave

Paid leave for personal reasons, unpaid leave, and extension of a paid leave may be granted under unusual circumstances with the consent of the Minister and the President.

7. Unapproved Leave or Failure to Return From Leave

Taking of leave without prior approval or unapproved failure to return to work when scheduled may be treated as a voluntary resignation.

8. Short-term Disability

If an employee, other than a temporary or informal employee, who has worked for the Church for a year or more, becomes disabled (unable to perform the essential duties of his/her job) for a period longer than is covered by his/her unused sick leave, his/her compensation shall be continued, for up to 90 days from the onset of the disability, at 80% of his/her pre-disability salary (recent average pay in the case of a non-Exempt employee), less the total of any State Disability Insurance (SDI), Workers' Compensation (W/C) disability income, and any other disability benefits (public or private) to which he/she may be entitled based on his/her Church employment. It is the employee's responsibility to apply for SDI, W/C, and any other disability benefits to which he/she may be so entitled.

For employees who have worked for the Church for over 90 days and less than a year, the above benefit shall apply with a maximum period of compensation continuation equal to 90 days times the ratio of the time they have worked for the Church to one year.

D. PERFORMANCE EVALUATION AND COMPENATION REVIEWS

Performance evaluations of all Full Time, Part Time, and Exempt Occasional employees are conducted annually, in time to serve as a significant input to the annual compensation reviews. The evaluations also are intended to assist the employees in their career development and to ensure that the Church staff works efficiently and well. Each evaluation is done by the employee's immediate supervisor with the assistance of the pertinent departmental committee (see Attachment A), using the form shown in Attachment B (except in the case of the choir section leaders). Positive performance evaluations do not automatically or necessarily lead to increases in compensation or to promotions.

Compensation reviews are part of the Church's annual budget development process. Initial compensation review recommendations are made by the Minister, the pertinent supervisors, and the pertinent departmental committees (see Attachment A), based on the most recent employee performance evaluations and any pertinent additional information available. These initial recommendations are forwarded to the Personnel Committee for consolidation from an overall Church perspective. This consolidation is transmitted to the Finance Committee for incorporation in the proposed budget for the following fiscal year. Compensation increases and promotions are solely within the discretion of the Church and depend on factors in addition to performance.

E. GRIEVANCES

Employees may, from time to time, have grievances concerning their job, treatment or work situation that have not been resolved in the normal course of events.

1. The employee is encouraged to take such concerns first to his/her immediate supervisor, who is expected to investigate and attempt to provide a solution or explanation.

2. If the problem persists, the employee may present it in writing to the Minister, who will investigate and attempt to provide a solution or explanation.

3. If the problem still is not resolved, the employee may present it in writing to the Chair of the Personnel Committee, who will attempt to reach a final resolution or, if necessary, bring the matter to the President of the Church.

It cannot be guaranteed that this procedure will resolve every problem satisfactorily, but it is intended to provide employees with the fullest opportunity to raise issues of concern, in good faith, without being blocked and without fear of retaliation.

F. TERMINATION

1. Voluntary Termination

An employee may voluntarily resign from his/her employment at any time. An employee who fails to report to work for three consecutively scheduled workdays without notice to or approval by his/her supervisor may be considered to have voluntarily resigned.

2. Disciplinary Actions

Unsatisfactory job performance, violation of Church policies (including Attachments C and D to this document), or other inadequacies as an employee, may warrant disciplinary action. The Church has established a system of progressive discipline that includes verbal warnings, written warnings and suspension. The system is not formal and the Church may, in its sole discretion, utilize whatever form of discipline is deemed appropriate under the circumstances, up to and including termination of employment. The Church's frequent use of progressive discipline in no way limits or alters the at-will employment relationship.

3. Involuntary Termination (Dismissal)

Dismissal of a paid staff member in a Board-ratified position, other than under the provisions for "Summary Dismissal" below, may be done only with approval of the Board of Directors, in collaboration with the Minister, the Church Administrator, the chairperson of the Church committee pertinent to the position involved, and the chairperson of the Personnel Committee. This restriction applies notwithstanding the supervisory role of the Minister and in some cases the existence of a second level of intervening supervision. Recommendations for discipline or dismissal of an employee in a Board-ratified position may be brought to the Board by pertinent committees or supervisors, but the final decision to dismiss, other than under the provisions for "Summary Dismissal", may be made only by the Board.

Dismissal of a paid staff member in a position not requiring Board ratification, other than under the provisions for “Summary Dismissal” below, may be done only by the pertinent staff director or her/his designee, after coordination with the Church Administrator and the chairperson of the Personnel Committee.

4. Summary Dismissal

Notwithstanding the restrictions on dismissal stated in Section F.3, the Minister or the Minister's designee is empowered to terminate a non-ministerial employee's employment, unilaterally and immediately, for violation of the Staff Code of Ethics (Attachment C), engaging in Prohibited Conduct (Attachment D), or other conduct which is deemed by the Minister or the Minister's designee:

a. To present a danger to the Church or the Church community, or
b. To subject the staff member or the Church to potential legal sanctions or liability, or
c. To be otherwise sufficiently serious to warrant, for protection of the interests of the Church, summary suspension or dismissal.

After taking such action, the Minister or the Minister's designee must report that action promptly to the President and the pertinent staff director.

5. Termination Benefits

When an employee is terminated, she/he shall be compensated for any accrued but unused vacation and any salary earned but not yet paid. If the employee has been a participant in the UUA Pension Plan, she/he retains her/his vested interest in the Plan following termination. Participants in the Church group medical plan may be eligible to convert to self-paid non-group coverage if and to the extent allowed by the plan provider.
