In June 2011, the Tentative Agreements with LEU and UAPD will be presented to the Board of Supervisors. One of the terms includes changing retiree health benefits. For LEU employees hired on or after July 10, 2011 and for existing UAPD employees, who retire concurrently with separation from County service, for every 8 hours of unused sick leave, the County will pay $400 toward the premium for one month of the retiree health plan.
The cost savings of these retiree health changes is noted below:
Y1 Savings: $4,000
Y5 Cumulative Savings: $36,000
Y10 Cumulative Savings: $115,000
Pursuant to Government Code §7507, the actuarial certification of the cost savings to change retiree health benefits is being presented for your acceptance at least two weeks prior to the Board’s consideration of the agreements with UAPD and LEU.
