Personnel Costing InformationDetail reconciliation/timelines for this in DecemberPCF reports will be updated after final load (12/8-9 range)This is where the full COLA versions will be finalSome premiums do not currently come over in the interface (shift
differentials etc.)
PPA and DCTU Current Year COLA is not in SAP, and not in BFMThese bargaining agreements have not been finalizedCAL includes the 1.6% COLA for General Fund discretionary backed
bureaus, including those without signed bargained agreementsUse the tech form entry to enter the expense for the 1.6% for current year
COLA that is not in the base budget for bureaus outside of the General Fund.
New Cost Categories for Personnel PlanningLanguage pay premiumCouncil has adopted a language pay differential policy ($1/hour premium, including
overtime hours worked)We do not know how many employees by bureau this will impact.There is no new resource, expectation is absorbed in current resourcesRecommend planning for this in Premiums
Oregon’s Paid Family Medical Leave Act (PFMLA)State delayed implementation until January 2023Council approved a CAL-target adjustment for this expense in the Fall BMP of FY
2020-21. Non-General Fund Bureaus can cost out the estimated City portion of the expense
using the PCF projection report specific to PFMLABHR will be managing the premium collection and remittance process to Oregon
State. The State, and therefore the City, are in the process of finalizing rules and processes.
