Los Angeles County Municipal Code Art. 2 Additional Provisions Not in County Code

Wherever, pursuant to Chapter 3 of this code, the Flood Control District Administrative Code, adopted July 27, 1948, or otherwise, the Los Angeles County Flood Control District furnishes housing to any employee of the District or to any employee of the District and his family, and such employee or such employee and his family are compelled to evacuate such housing because of construction activities of any kind, fire, flood, disaster, or other act of God, the District shall furnish to such employee or employee and his family, as an addition to the salary otherwise provided by this Chapter 9, adequate substitute housing for such time as such employee or such employee and his family are not able to use such original housing, but not for longer than such employee or such employee and his family would have been entitled to the use of such original housing. Such employee, during such period, shall continue to pay rental due for the original housing, but shall not be obliged to pay any additional rental for the substitute housing.

(Ord. 112 Art. 2 § 40, 1947.)

Whenever, because of construction activities of any kind, fire, flood, disaster, or other act of God, an employee of the District who is furnished housing by the District is not able to use an automobile owned by him or of which he has the right of possession and use, the District shall supply to such employee, as a part of and in addition to the salary otherwise provided for in this Chapter 9, a substitute automobile for such time as he is unable to use the automobile owned or possessed by him.

(Ord. 112 Art. 2 § 41, 1947.)

The following positions may be required, by the chief engineer, to perform standby and overtime service to the extent indicated below. The compensation fixed for these positions in Section 6.28.050 of the Los Angeles County Code and Section 9.35 of this chapter is hereby found to be adequate remuneration for all service required under this section, except as provided below:

A.

Dam and Plant Operators. Any person employed in positions classified in the Dam and Pumping Plant Group who resides in district housing shall work five days of eight hours each, and stand by on call at his station and perform minor, routine duties 80 hours each week. Time in excess of this in any week, or actual ordered extra service during standby hours, is deemed to be overtime, to be compensated as provided for in Chapter 6.14 of the Los Angeles County Code.

B.

Holidays. Persons subject to this section shall be allowed those holidays authorized by the chief engineer.

C.

Full-shift Overtime. Any time a person subject to this section is given eight consecutive working hours of paid leave for overtime worked, he shall also be given 16 hours of standby service.

Relief Dam Operators. Whenever any employee of the Flood Control District is assigned by the district head as a relief operator at a District dam and, as part of such assignment, is required to remain on immediate call at the dam site beyond his regular workday, he shall receive, in lieu of compensation provided in Section 6.10.120 of the Los Angeles County Code, a $25.00 payment for each 24-hour period that he is on duty, and/or engaged to wait at such remote district property. Such payment shall not be made unless such employee is required to remain on immediate call for an entire 24-hour period for work at a site which is not his regular assignment.

(Ord. 112 Art. 2 § 42, 1947.)

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Chapter 9, whenever any employee employed in a position classified in the Dam and Pumping Plant Group, who resides in district housing, is unexpectedly required by the district head to return to duty because of unanticipated work requirements, such return to duty shall be deemed to be a "call-back" if the order to return is given the employee following the termination of his normal work shift and such return is for more than one hour or is the second such return within an established period not exceeding 24 hours of standby duty. The first four hours or less worked on such a call-back shall be compensated by an amount equivalent to four hours of premium pay. Any additional time worked over four hours on such a call-back shall be governed by the overtime provisions of this Chapter 9.
