Synopsis
|
The Enterprise Resource Planning Board changed the workweek for all state employees effective January 1, 2016, to begin on Saturday morning at 12:00 a.m. Previously, the workweek began on Sunday morning at 12:00 a.m. This change resulted in Grievants losing one hour of shift differential pay per shift. Respondent was not responsible for the change in the Grievants’ schedule, nor did it have authority to refuse to implement the change put in place by the State’s new timekeeping and payroll system. Grievants understandably did not like the loss of their of shift differential pay due to the change in their work schedules; however, the undersigned does not have the authority to change the Enterprise Resource Planning Board’s or Respondent’s policies, absent some violation of statute, rule, regulation, or policy.
