WAGE STUDY CONMITTEE REPORT
This special committee was appointed by the Mayor to study the Town’s
wage structure and make recommendations.
Committee:Chairman Petrocine,Trustees Dannels and Tregent.
Every department’s payroll was reviewed and compared to the competitive
labor market.Committee members conferred with each department head
and every employee’s rating was reviewed and studied.
In the committee’s opinion,it is timely,appropriate and advisable to
adjust the wages of the Town’s personnel and to establish a set of poHcy
guide lines,covering such items as vacations,sick leave,holidays,re
tirement age,etc.,for general use of all departments.
This Committee has written an adjusted wage schedule and the above men
tioned policy guide.These have been reviewed,in detail with each
Councilman and with each department head.We recommend that the Town
Board instruct the Town’s department heads to put these into effect,as
of July first,1968,retroactively.
We further recommend:
1.That payroll planning shall coincide with budget planning.
2.That each department work on plans to develop continuity of
key personnel and
3.That the administrative office operations should receive plann
ing attention regarding such matters as coordination of res
ponsibility,authority,finance management and Board Committee
involvement.
Respectfully submitted,
