Any questioning of an employee shall be at a reasonable hour, preferably when the employee is on duty, unless the circumstances of the investigation dictate otherwise. When practicable, such questioning shall be scheduled during the day time. 3. The investigation and questioning of the employee (which shall not violate the employee's constitutional rights) shall take place at the Port Angeles Police Department, except when impractical.

An employee re-hired from the reinstatement list shall be placed at the salary range and step held by the employee prior to being laid off, using the salary schedule in effect at the time of re-hire. If re-hired into a different classification than when laid off, the salary shall be determined by the Department Head within the established salary range for the class. It shall be the responsibility of the laid off employee to keep his/her address current with the City. If a position becomes available, the City will send notice to the employee at the last address of record, and if the employee fails to respond to such notice within ten (10) calendar days, the employee's name will be removed from the reinstatement list for future consideration, unless a valid reason exists for such failure to respond, as determined by the City. 7 ARTICLE III - WORKING CONDITIONS Section A - Hours of Work 1.

The Supervisor shall determine the time during the employee's shift when the meal period is granted. 4. Seven days' advance notice will be provided prior to an employee being assigned a change in his/her regularly scheduled shift, except in cases of an emergency.

Computation of time shall be made, considering the drive to be made within the normal speed limits. Section C - Relatives WorkinQ in the Police Department If employees in the Police Department become related through marriage, or cohabitation, which may result in a problematic, questionable, or preferential supervisor/subordinate relationship in the judgment of the Police Chief, the City will make a reasonable effort to change shifts of the individuals affected. However, the City reserves the exclusive right to terminate, transfer, or re-assign one of the individuals involved, if necessary, to resolve operational or personnel problems in managing the Department. Prior to terminating an employee because of this policy, the City shall make reasonable effort to transfer the individual to another position. The Union reserves the right to be consulted prior to any decision on this matter. Section D - Work StoppaQes.

It is further understood that employees who engage in any such actions as noted above shall be subject to any disciplinary action as may be determined by the City. Employees shall be held responsible for any financial losses suffered by the City as a result of such work actions. Section E - DruQ TestinQ Policv 1. Policv: Reporting to work under the influence of alcohol and/or illegal drugs, or the use, sale, or possession by an employee of illegal drugs is strictly prohibited and may result in disciplinary action, including immediate termination. For the purpose of this policy, substances that require a prescription or other written approval from a licensed physician or dentist for their use shall also be included when used other than as prescribed. Each employee must advise the employer if they are using prescription or over the counter drugs they know or reasonably should know may impair their ability to perform job functions and/or operate machinery such as automobiles. 9 Under appropriate circumstances, the employer may request the employee provide written medical authorization to perform various job functions from a physician while using such drugs. Any voluntary request by an employee for assistance with his/her own alcohol abuse problem will remain confidential and shall not be used as the basis for any disciplinary action provided that the request for assistance is initiated prior to being identified as impaired through the procedures herein. The parties recognize the essential purpose of any law enforcement agency is to enforce the criminal laws. Moreover, the parties recognize the courts have held it would substantially impair law enforcement agencies if they were required to employ individuals within their ranks who have violated the very laws said agencies are charged with enforcing. Therefore, the employer reserves the right to refuse to employ or continue the employment of individuals who are or have been engaged in criminal conduct, whether drug-related or not. When a supervisory employee has a reasonable suspicion to believe an employee is under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs, or is using illegal drugs, the employee in question will be asked to submit to discovery testing including breath tests, urinalysis and/or a blood screen for the presence of alcohol or illegal drugs. An employee who refuses to submit to discovery testing for alcohol and/or illegal drugs shall be conclusively presumed to be under the influence of alcohol or an illegal drug for the purpose of administering this Section. If the results of the drug test are positive, and establish that the employee used an illegal drug, or reported to work while under the influence of alcohol, the employee may be subject to discipline including immediate discharge. 2. Definitions: For the purpose of administering this Section, the following definition of terms is provided: Reasonable Suspicion - Reasonable suspicion is based on specific objective facts and reasonable inferences from those facts in the light of experience, that discovery testing will produce evidence of illegal drugs or improper alcohol use by that particular employee. Under the Influence - The following cut-off levels shall be used for the initial screening of specimens to determine whether they are negative for these drugs or classes of drugs: (nq/ml) Amphetamines Barbiturates Benzodiazepines Test Level 1000 300 300 10 Cannabinoids Cocaine Metabolites Methadone Methaqualone Opiates (Codeine) Opiates (Morphine) Phencyclidine (PCP) Propoxyphene 100 300 300 '300 300 300 25 300 Level of the positive results for ethyl alcohol 0.05 grId!. Illegal Drugs - are defined as all forms of narcotics, depressants, stimulants, hallucinogens, and cannabis, which sale, purchase, transfer, or unauthorized use or possession is prohibited by law. Over-the-Counter Drugs - are those which are generally available without a prescription and are limited to those drugs which are capable of impairing the judgment of an employee to safely perform the employee's duties. Prescription Drugs - are defined as those drugs which are used in the course of medical treatment and have been prescribed and authorized for use by a licensed practitioner/ physician or dentist. 3. Procedures: If an employee is required to submit to a drug test, the following procedure shall be followed: The employee shall be given an opportunity to confer with a union representative if one is readily available and the employee has requested a representative. The employee shall be given an opportunity to explain to the Medical Review Officer (MRO) the reasons for the employee's conditions, such as reaction to a prescribed drug, fatigue, exposure to toxic substances, or any other reasons known to the employee. The employee, employer, and a union representative may be present during this discussion. The employer may request urine and/or blood samples. Urine and blood samples shall be collected at a local laboratory, hospital, or medical facility. The employer shall transport the employee to the collection site. The employer and/or union representative may be allowed to accompany the employee to the collection site and observe the bottling and sealing of the specimen. All specimen containers and vials and bags used to transport the specimen shall be sealed to safeguard their integrity, in the presence of the employer, employee, and the union representative to the extent they have elected to be present, and proper chain-of-custody procedures shall be followed. 11 The collection and testing of the samples shall be performed only by a laboratory and by a physician or health care professional qualified and authorized to administer and determine the meaning of any test results. The laboratory performing the test shall be one that is certified by the National Institute of Drug Abuse (NIDA). If a specimen tests positive in an immunoassay screen test, the results must be confirmed by a gas chromatography/mass spectrometry test. The specimen must show positive results at/within the following limits on the GC/MS (gas chromatography/mass spectrometry) confirmatory test to be considered positive: If immunoassay is specific for free morphine, the initial test level is 25 ng/ml. Confirmatory Test: Marijuana metabolites Cocaine metabolites Opiates: Morphine Codeine Phencyclidine Amphetamines: Amphetamine Methamphetamine 15 ng/ml 150 ng/ml 300 ng/ml 300 ng/ml 25 ng/ml 500 ng/ml 500 ng/ml At the employee's or the union's option, a sample of the specimen may be requisitioned and sent to a laboratory chosen by the union for testing. The cost of this test will be paid by the union or the employee. Failure to exercise this option may not be considered as evidence in an arbitration or other proceeding concerning the drug test or its consequences. The results of this second test shall be provided to the City. The employee and the union shall be informed of the results of all tests and provided with all documentation regarding the tests as soon as the test results are available. The parties agree to use the Medical Review Officer (MRO) in the Virginia Mason DrugProof facility to review all confirmed positive test results and communicate those results to the employer. The MRO shall have the responsibility to determine when an individual has failed a drug test in accordance with the standard enumerated herein. 12 ARTICLE IV - COMPENSATION Section A - WaQes 1. Effective January 1, 2006, wages shall be increased by 2.7%.

The salary schedule for 2006 is an addendum to the labor contract. The Police Records Clerks, Warrant Entry Clerk, and Parking Enforcement Officer shall receive a wage increase of 7.27% for 2006. This reflects a 5% market adjustment and the 2.7% COLA. The cost of living increase effective January 1 of 2007 and 2008 shall be 90% of the S-rspttle-Bremerton CPI-W index, using the August CPI, effective the following January 1 with a minimum of 2% and a maximum of 6 %. The parties agree to conduct a wage survey for Communications Officer and Communications Supervisor mid-year of 2007, with any adjustments resulting from the survey effective January 2008. The agencies that will be used in the communications survey will include the following: Watcom Communications Grays Harbor County Cowlitz County Jefferson County Skagit County Lewis County Thurston County Section B - Overtime Compensation 1. Overtime hours are those hours which the employee is compensated in excess of forty (40) hours in the work week, or eight (8) hours in the work day, or 10 hours in a day if on a 10/4 schedule. Employees working during the change to standard time shall receive compensation for the extra hour worked if the hours actually worked exceed eight hours. Employees working during the change to daylight savings time shall have one hour deducted from the work day if the scheduled work day is less than eight hours 2. Overtime hours worked shall be paid at the rate of time and one-half the employee's regular rate of pay for hours worked outside the regularly scheduled work shift.

Overtime pay shall not be compounded with any other form of premium compensation, excluding higher class pay, paid to the employee. 4. Overtime work is a condition of employment when called upon to meet the operational needs of the Department. Overtime shall be offered on the basis of descending seniority and assigned on the basis of ascending seniority. 13 Once the least senior employee has worked 12 overtime hours, per pay period, it shall no longer be a requirement that this employee work any additional overtime during that pay period and the reverse seniority requirement to work the overtime shall pass to the next person in seniority. This requirement to work overtime may be reinstated in the event of an emergency, but only in the event that there is a general recall of staff. 5. Time or service on the employee's scheduled days off, with no change in the work schedule, shall constitute overtime. 6. If an employee is required to report to a shift with less than twelve (12) hours rest, the employee shall earn pay at the overtime rate until such a rest period is granted. This subsection shall not apply whenever an employee is deprived of the twelve (12) hours rest period as a result of a change of work hours at his/her own request. 7. Personal requests for a change or trade of shift must be approved by the Communications Manager. The City shall not be obligated to provide overtime or additional compensation to the affected employees for overtime incurred resulting from a requested ch'ange or trade of shift for personal reasons nor shall the City be obligated to pay for time not worked in a normal work week as a result of such change or trade of shift. Section C - Call-Back Compensation An employee on off-duty status who is called back to duty will be credited with a minimum of two (2) hours of overtime and paid at the rate of time and one-half for his/her regular rate of pay. If employees are required to work longer than two hours, the employee will be paid overtime for the hours worked. Court attendance shall be considered "call-back" for the purposes of application of this Section, unless such times falls within the employee's normal work schedule.

Employees assigned to work overtime may request compensatory time in lieu of pay at the rate of time and one-half for the overtime hours worked, calculated to the nearest 30 minutes. 2. An employee on compensatory time off shall be deemed to be on leave with pay status. 14 3. Any compensatory time credits which have been actually taken by an employee shall be included in computing the hours of his/her work week. 4.

Use of compensatory time shall be by mutual agreement between the employee and the supervisor, with the understanding that the employee will not be allowed to use comp time if a replacement employee would be on scheduled overtime. 6. The Department Head or employee's supervisor shall make reasonable efforts to accommodate a request for compensatory time off when made at least seven days, but not more than thirty days, in advance. The thirty day limitation shall not apply if the compensatory time is to be used in conjunction with vacation time or involves a minimum of five consecutive compensatory days off.
