Agreement with the Fire Management Association <br />February 21, 2012 <br />Page 2 <br />4) Disability Retirements: Any sworn member who is rejected from employment by OCFA <br />due to an industrial injury or medical condition will be certified as qualified for an industrial <br />disability retirement. Any member who has not received a disability retirement and <br />receives clearance to return to full working status per OCFA standards will be offered <br />employment with OCFA for up to one year from the initial contract date. <br />5) Paid Leave Balances: The City will address leave balances in the following manner: <br />Holiday Leave: 100% paid to employees at separation. <br />Vacation Leave: Up to 350 hours transferred to OCFA; any remaining vacation leave up <br />to 350 hours will be paid to employees. City vacation hours which transfer to the OCFA <br />will not be combined with vacation hours earned while at the OCFA. <br />Sick Leave: Up to 350 hours transferred to OCFA. Remaining sick leave eligible for the <br />City's cash out option will be paid to employees at separation. <br />Order of usage: Following transfer to OCFA, members will be required to use accrued <br />OCFA leave prior to using the vacation and sick leave transferred from the City. In five <br />years, or earlier if the member separates from service, all remaining vacation and sick <br />leave which transferred to OCFA will be paid off by the City at the member's rate of pay <br />upon separation from the City. <br />6) Retiree Health Savings Account (Fund 105): Fund 105 monies will be disbursed to <br />individual health savings accounts and deposited with ICMA-RC, a vendor that manages <br />the City's Retirement Health Savings Plan. Subsidy payments to retirees will cease on <br />March 16, 2012. <br />7) Retiring Personnel: Employees who have retired from CalPERS will not begin work with <br />OCFA prior to the initial date of the contract. However, employees may retire from <br />CalPERS following their transfer to OCFA and such employees will enter the Orange <br />County Employees Retirement System (OCERS) as new members. <br />Non-retiring employees transferred to OCFA will enter OCERS with the option of electing <br />reciprocity with CalPERS or no reciprocity with CalPERS. <br />60B-2
