San Rafael Municipal Code Art. XVII Disciplinary Action

Any employee of the Fire Department or Police Department who is found by the City Council to have been a participant in a strike against the City of San Rafael shall be dismissed from employment upon such finding and shall not be rehired by the City in any position or capacity.

"Job action," for the purpose of this provision of the charter, shall include, but shall not be limited to, a work slowdown or any concerted refusal of employees to perform all their usual duties during the existence of a labor dispute.

Upon a finding by the City Council that an employee of the Police Department or Fire Department has participated in a job action against the City of San Rafael, that employee's compensation shall be reduced to the minimum rate then in effect for the classification in which he is employed. This reduction in compensation shall be effective with the commencement of the shift on which the job action first occurred and shall continue until the City Council finds that the job action has ceased and that a normal schedule of activity has resumed; in no event shall any compensation lost by such reduction be restored.

No disciplinary action taken pursuant to the provisions of this Article shall be subject to the provisions of any ordinance or resolution of the City providing for appeals to, or hearings by, the Board of Review.
