full time employees of the City of Jeffersonville.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED by the Common Council of the City of Jeffersonville that,
except for Police and Fire Officials, whose benefits are set forth in a separate plan, there is hereby
authorized longevity for full-time employees of the City of Jeffersonville, Indiana pursuant to the terms
and schedule contained in that following sections:
Section 1: Determination of Eligibility: Years of service for the purpose of computing longevity pay shall
include and be allowed only for years spent in full time and uninterrupted employment with the City of
Jeffersonville_ No elected officials shall receive longevity benefits. Any time worked which is temporary in
nature or seasonal, even if full time hours were scheduled during its duration as a temporary or seasonal
position, or any time worked in a temporary or permanent part time position will not be counted toward
eligible years of service for longevity computation purposes. When initially calculating longevity in 2000,
as determined under this section, prior years of service will be grandfathered. If an employee terminates
employment with the City of Jeffersonville for any reason the employee will lose all years of service. If an
employee leaves the City of Jeffersonville and returns at a later date the employee will start over with no
years of service. Longevity benefits shall be paid to eligible employees only after that employee has been
a full time eligible employee for three years. The maximum years of service eligible for computing
longevity pay shall be twenty (20) years.
Section 2: Benefit Pay Date: Longevity benefits due an employee for a longevity benefit year are
authorized to be paid every pay period or on the second pay period in December.
Section 3: Longevity Benefit year: The longevity benefit year for determination of years of service shall
be on a calendar year basis. Effective as of January 2014, longevity shall be based upon actual time worked
in the event that employment is severed prior to the end of the calendar year. If an employment is severed
prior to the end of the calendar year, the longevity pay shall be pro -rated based upon the number of pay
periods worked.
Section 4: Longevity Benefit Schedule: The amount payable for longevity shall be calculated according to
the following schedule:
