PML 2012-022

Employees will be credited with PLP 2012 on the first day of each pay period for 12 consecutive pay periods. Full-time employees will have a reduction in pay equal to 4.62% and eight (8) hours of leave will be credited to the employee’s PLP 2012 leave balance. PLP will have no cash value and cannot be cashed out. PLP can be requested in lieu of approved sick leave. PLP can be requested and used the same way vacation/annual leave is used.



PLP must be used in the pay period in which it is earned. For the July 2012 pay period, departments should be meeting with employees to determine when employees can use their PLP day. If an employee does not schedule their PLP 2012 day by the 20th of the month, their supervisors will meet with them to schedule a day prior to the month end. If the employee does not select a PLP day, the supervisors will schedule the PLP day, which coincides with the employee’s regular days off.

When a department cannot operationally have all employees take a PLP day within the pay period, then the PLP will be carried over and can be used in the same manner as vacation or annual leave. The PLP will be used before any other leave, except sick leave. PLP credits will not be included in the calculation of vacation/annual leave balances. Employees currently enrolled in the Voluntary Personal Leave Program will have the ability to opt out of this program during the month of July 2012.

The PLP 2012 will not affect the State employer contributions for health, vision, dental, flex-elect cash option, and enhanced survivor’s benefits he/she would have received prior to PLP. The PLP 2012 will not cause a break in State service, a reduction in accumulation of service credit for seniority and retirement, leave accumulation, or a merit salary adjustment.

  1. Who would have thought it would get to the point where we are happy just to get a full check for a couple months every 3 or 4 years

  2. PLP days do not mean you get a day off, it means you have to play the lotto with SAB for the day off. When you win that day it still does not mean you get that day off. I have won days off and hard them printed on the movemont sheets in the Hto memo page, just to get my shift changed. If we were getting the money they could not tell us how to spend it, but since it is a day off we work it for freE. Then we must cross are fingers and hope to get those day off. Also if you use a PLP day for when you call in sick, can CIM still LOI you for using a day you worked free!

  4. I wonder what ccpoa is going to do for us next year, when we have to renegotiate for a new contract and the state financial crisis only worsens. CAHP was able to accept the PLP as long as they're current contract Arnold hooked them up with gets an extension.

  7. Despite Brown's long-time criticism of furloughs as a bad business practice for the state, his Department of Human Resources (the former Department of Personnel Administration) last week issued a memo to government personnel officers detailing how to execute a 4.62-percent cut in the hours and pay for employees whose unions didn't negotiate a salary reduction with Brown.
    The memo applies to about 11,000 state engineers in Bargaining Unit 9, most of whom work for Caltrans, and another 900 or so heavy machinery operators in Bargaining Unit 13.
