Retiree Only contribution for eligible recipients is allowable regardless of where the retiree acquires authorized and legitimate medical insurance coverage (i.e. through State Exchange, through individual insurance company, through a current employer, or through spouse employer). c. Retiree shall not be eligible to receive a contribution for dependent, spouse, or registered domestic partner under the Retiree + 1 or Retiree + Family levels if retiree’s dependent, spouse, or registered domestic partner has medical insurance through their current employer, is covered under Retiree’s current employer, or if Retiree does not purchase individual insurance for dependent. d. Upon retirement only, the City shall transfer contributions based on eligibility above into the retiree’s individual account with the Central Valley Retiree Medical Trust. Employees will not be eligible for these contributions should they separate from City service prior to retirement. Contributions to eligible retirees will be made as follows: i. Upon Retirement – initial contributions will be made for the months from loss of coverage with City through either December 31st or June 30th, whichever date is first. Contributions will be deposited no later than 30 days after retirement date. ii. Ongoing Contribution – a semi-annual years’ worth of contributions will be made on a semi-annual basis no later than Jan 31st (for months January – June) & July 31st (for months July - December) until exhaustion of sick leave conversion. 3.

Failure to provide proof of coverage will result in the retiree losing a City contribution for that calendar year. This will not result, however, in a reduction to the number of months the Retiree is eligible for receiving contributions in the future. 4. If Retiree has a status change during any calendar year that would change the contribution, such as a marriage, divorce, death, birth, spouse or dependent loss of coverage, the City will reconcile the new amount the Retiree is eligible for with the following semi-annual contribution. The change in status is presumed effective the 1st of the month following the month when the retiree provided notice to the City of the change in status. For example, if the Retiree’s status changes from Retiree Only to Retiree +1 on November 15, the City will provide an additional $500 along with the total semi-annual contribution for the following calendar year to compensate the Retiree for the change in status for the month of December in the previous calendar year. If the Retiree’s change in status results in monies owed to the City, the City will recoup the amount owed by deducting it from the following semi-annual contribution. However, in the event of a death of the Retiree receiving a contribution for the Retiree Only level during the calendar year in which the contribution was already received, any remaining months of contribution will be deleted for subsequent calendar years, but the City will not endeavor to seek payments already made for the months following the Retiree’s death. 5. In the event of the death of Retiree participating in the contribution program, surviving qualified spouse will be eligible to receive a contribution for the following calendar year if the retiree would have been eligible to receive a contribution. If eligible, the contribution will be consistent with the eligibility criteria set forth in subparagraph above and continue until the exhaustion of the deceased retiree’s sick leave bank, upon the death of the surviving spouse, upon the spouse and/or dependents coverage for other insurance through an employer, or upon voluntarily election to not continue with the contribution program.

To receive the semi-annual contribution, the retiree must provide the City with proof and cost of coverage by December 15th each year to receive a contribution for the following calendar year.

The change in status is presumed effective the 1st of the month following the month when the retiree provided notice to the City of the change in status. For example, if the retiree’s status changes from retiree only to retiree +1 on November 15, the City will provide an additional $500 along with the total semi-annual contribution for the following calendar year to compensate the retiree for the change in status for the month of December in the previous calendar year. If the retiree’s change in status results in monies owed to the City, the City will recoup the amount owed by deducting it from the following semi- annual contribution. However, in the event of a death of the retiree receiving a contribution for the retiree only level during the calendar year in which the contribution was already received, any remaining months of contribution will be deleted for subsequent calendar years, but the City will not endeavor to seek payments already made for the months following the retiree’s death. 4. In the event of the death of retiree participating in the contribution program, surviving qualified spouse will be eligible to receive a contribution for the following calendar year if the retiree would have been eligible to receive a contribution. If eligible, the contribution will be consistent with the eligibility criteria set forth in subparagraph and continue until the exhaustion of the deceased retiree’s sick leave bank, upon the death of the surviving spouse, upon the spouse and/or dependents coverage for other insurance through an employer, or upon voluntarily election to not continue with the contribution program. ---PAGE BREAK--- Effective Date: 07/01/2023 34 MPOA MOU II.

All other administrative policies and procedures shall be as contained in the Personnel Rules and Personnel Administrative Orders. L. Wellness/Sick Leave Incentive 1. For the term of this contract, the Incentive Program allows employees to deposit the value of twenty-four (24) hours of regular sick leave into a Health Savings Account (HSA), or Flexible Spending Account (FSA) if eligible.

Under state law, sworn safety members of the Police Department receive full pay, including sick ---PAGE BREAK--- Effective Date: 07/01/2023 47 MPOA MOU leave credit, up to one year for line-of-duty disability, and there is no charge against the employee’s accrued sick leave under such circumstances. An employee who has exhausted 4850 time and whose sick leave has expired because of an on-the-job-injury may be granted additional sick leave upon recommendation of the City Manager and approval of the City Council. B. Leave of Absence 1. Upon written request, the City Manager may grant an employee a leave of absence without pay for a definite period not to exceed one year. Normally, a leave of absence will not be granted to employees who have not completed a probationary period. Upon return from leave, the employee shall be reinstated in the position held at the start of the leave, or to another position in the same class. Failure to return at the end of the leave, or within a reasonable period after notice to return to duty, shall be cause for dismissal. 2. An authorized absence without pay may be granted by the Department Director when an employee has exhausted all accumulated sick leave, compensatory time off, vacation or holiday time. 3. When an employee is absent without prior authorization and the absence is not due to illness or injury, the time absent shall be considered an unauthorized absence. During an unauthorized absence an employee is without pay and may lose benefits. 4. Upon becoming a candidate for public office, an employee may request and may be granted a leave of absence without pay to remain in effect for the period of candidacy. 5. The CITY may require an employee believed to be physically or mentally incapacitated for work to be examined by a designated physician and may require the employee to take a leave of absence. Any accrued sick leave may be used. C. Catastrophic Leave 1. Employees in regular positions shall be eligible to participate in the strictly voluntary catastrophic leave program. To be eligible, an employee must provide a written medical verification of long-term illness or injury, or have a member of the employee’s immediate family with a long term illness or injury which results in the employee being requested to take time off from work to care for that family member. The employee must have exhausted all accrued leave and CTO, or soon will have exhausted all such leave, resulting in the employee being in a no-pay status. Employees who are receiving workers’ compensation or long term disability benefits are not eligible for catastrophic leave. Catastrophic leave shall be coordinated with Family Leave with respect to CITY payment of insurance contributions. ---PAGE BREAK--- Effective Date: 07/01/2023 48 MPOA MOU 2. When a Department Director has determined that an employee would benefit from the establishment of a leave bank and has approved an employee's request for Catastrophic Leave, the Department Director will notify the Personnel Office requesting the establishment of a leave bank in the employee’s name. The Department Director will be responsible for notifying CITY employees of the need for donations. The Department Director will take necessary actions to help ensure that individual employee decisions to donate or not donate to a leave bank are kept confidential and that employees are not pressured to participate. All donations shall remain confidential. 3. The maximum time that may be initially donated into an employee’s leave bank account is 1040 hours. To be eligible to receive more than the original 1040 hour limit, there must be a favorable prognosis for recovery and a predictable date of return to work or the employee terminates. 4. An employee may donate vacation, holiday, grand fathered holiday, CTO or sick leave hours in increments of four hours to a specific employee for which a leave bank has been created. An employee may donate leave only if their own total accrued leave balance(s) remains in excess of 168 hours. An employee may donate a maximum of 40 hours of sick leave to any one employee in a calendar year. Donated hours shall be credited to the leave bank of the affected employee as sick leave on an "as needed" basis. Once the authorized hours are credited to the leave bank of the affected employee, the donation of leave hours is irreversible. 5. When an employee is utilizing leave bank hours, they will not accrue any leave time. 6. Employees wishing to donate time shall complete and submit the required form to the Personnel Office. After review, the form will be forwarded to the Finance Department for payroll action and adjustment to donor and recipient’s paid leave balance. 7. In no event shall donated time have the effect of altering the employment rights of the CITY or the recipient employee, nor shall it extend or alter the limitations otherwise applicable to leaves of absence or sick leave. The CITY reserves the right to modify or terminate an established leave bank program for any employee as it deems necessary. D. All other administrative policies and procedures shall be as contained in the Personnel Rules and Personnel Administrative Orders. SECTION 20: WORK SCHEDULES A.

The Department will endeavor to provide employees assigned to these units with as much notice as possible when requiring the member to work one of these events. The Department will give at least fourteen (14) calendar days’ notice prior to the event.

Officers assigned to specialized units such as S.W.A.T., C.N.T., K-9, Equestrian, and Field Training may also bid for shift assignments based on seniority within the department. However, it is understood that only one member may be assigned to a particular shift squad due to the need for adequate coverage by specialized units, or to prevent a concentration of those personnel on any one squad or shift. C. Upon reaching the age of forty-eight (48), an employee may exercise the option in writing of not working between midnight and 5:00 a.m., unless otherwise provided for in this MOU. D. Management Rights 1.

Specific procedures for modified duty assignments shall be as contained in the Personnel Rules and Personnel Administrative Orders. SECTION 23: JOB SHARING A. The CITY will make reasonable accommodation for an employee in a regular position who desires to share his/her job with another qualified employee or eligible person. Jobs may be shared on an hourly or daily basis provided the combined total scheduled hours do not exceed more than 80 hours per pay period. An employee who works less than 40 hours per pay period shall not be eligible to receive any benefits for which the CITY pays an insurance premium or membership in the retirement system. Should both employees be scheduled for forty (40) hours each pay period, both employees shall assume responsibility for the payment of one-half (1/2) of the CITY’s contribution towards insurance premiums, as well as their own, if any.

B. All other administrative policies and procedures shall be as contained in the Personnel Rules and Personnel Administrative Orders. ---PAGE BREAK--- Effective Date: 07/01/2023 55 MPOA MOU SECTION 27: DEPARTMENTAL SENIORITY A. The parties agree to implement the following procedure in order to establish departmental seniority for new employees, or current City employees hired as Police Officer Trainee and Police Officer for the City of Modesto.

(Employee may retain mileage allowance, if appropriate.) For ---PAGE BREAK--- Effective Date: 07/01/2023 59 MPOA MOU court cases, the Police Chief reserves the right to limit City payment for court appearances on non-duty day/shifts. SECTION 30: REDUCTION IN FORCE PROCEDURES A. When it becomes necessary through lack of work, lack of funds, or for other reasons to reduce the number of employees, the CITY shall prepare a layoff list by classification within a department. Within each job class, employees shall be laid off in the following order: temporary, provisional, probationary, regular. The order of layoff shall then be based on the CITY’s needs, with particular regard for length of service with the CITY. For purposes of establishing seniority for layoff, the ranks of Police Officer and Detective shall be considered a single classification. Nevertheless, the CITY retains the right to determine which ranks are subject to reduction. B. Whenever there is a reduction in workforce, the CITY shall first demote to a vacancy, if any, in the next lower class for which the employee who is scheduled for layoff meets the minimum employment standards. Employees with the least continuous CITY service shall be demoted first. All persons so demoted shall have their names placed on the classification reinstatement eligible list. C. If there are no vacant positions in a lower class available, the CITY shall allow bumping from a higher to a lower classification within a department. An employee may bump into the next lowest class for which the minimum employment standards are met, provided that the employee has more continuous CITY service than the employee being bumped. D. If there are no vacant positions or bumping possibilities, the CITY shall lay off employees within a department and classification. Employees with the least continuous CITY service shall be laid off first. All persons laid off shall have their names placed on the classification reinstatement eligible list. E. An employee scheduled for demotion or layoff shall be given a minimum of fourteen (14) calendar days’ notice in writing. The notice shall state the effective date and time of demotion or layoff. F. Names shall be placed on classification reinstatement eligible lists in the order of continuous CITY service. Vacant positions within a classification shall first be offered to those on the reinstatement list who meet the minimum employment standards for the vacant position. The eligibility of individuals on the reinstatement list shall be for a period of two years from the date of demotion or layoff. Eligibles not responding to written notification of an opening within fourteen (14) calendar days shall have their names removed from the list. G. Any Detective who demotes or who is reinstated to the rank of Police Officer, shall subsequently be reinstated to the rank of Detective as vacancies arise, based on seniority. Said reinstatement to Detective shall be on a non- ---PAGE BREAK--- Effective Date: 07/01/2023 60 MPOA MOU competitive basis if the reinstatement to Detective occurs within two years of the layoff or demotion. H. A reinstated employee shall be entitled to the following benefits. 1. Prior sick leave accrual (unless sick leave was cashed-out in accordance with the applicable rules). 2. Seniority at time of layoff or demotion for purposes of determining merit increases, vacation accruals and future reductions in the workforce. 3. A salary as nearly as possible equivalent to that which the employee was receiving immediately prior to layoff or demotion. If the employee chooses to be reinstated in a class at a lower salary range than that held previously, the salary will be either equivalent to the salary immediately prior to layoff or demotion or as close to the equivalent as the new salary range allows. I. A person appointed from a reinstatement eligible list within six months to the same classification held prior to layoff or demotion, will obtain regular status upon reinstatement, provided that they had completed probation in that class prior to layoff or demotion. Members demoted or laid off from a probationary position shall, upon reinstatement, be credited with time completed in probation. The credits shall be measured by calendar quarters. In the event that a full calendar quarter has not been completed, the member shall be credited with the amount of quarters completed. For example, an employee with four months of completed probationary time shall be credited with three months; should they have completed seven months of probation, they shall be credited with six months. All other persons appointed from a reinstatement list shall serve a new probationary period. J. Employees laid off shall be paid for all accrued vacation, holidays and overtime. Accrued sick leave shall either be paid as provided for by the applicable rules, or may remain on the books in event of reinstatement. If reinstatement does not occur within two years, sick leave shall be paid in accordance with the applicable rules at the employee’s hourly rate of pay at the time of layoff. K. The employee may elect to either withdraw their share of the retirement contribution or leave the money in the retirement system. L. Layoffs and demotions shall be made without regard to race, color, national origin, religion, sex, age, citizenship, or physical handicap. M. Whenever any provision of this section conflicts with any other section of this MOU or any Personnel Rules or Personnel Administrative Orders, the provisions of this section shall prevail. N. All other administrative policies and procedures shall be as contained in the Personnel Rules and Personnel Administrative Orders. ---PAGE BREAK--- Effective Date: 07/01/2023 61 MPOA MOU SECTION 31: NON-DISCIPLINARY ACTIONS – REVIEW A. Non-disciplinary actions (hereafter “actions”) are considered as any written communication, not addressed in SECTION 33 (DISCIPLINARY ACTIONS), from a supervisor to an employee intended to be maintained in any file for any amount of time, excluding personnel evaluations. B. The following is an appeal procedure for the employee who believes that the non-disciplinary action contains factually erroneous information which is adverse to his/her interest: 1. Upon receipt of a non-disciplinary action, an employee shall have the right to file a written response within thirty days of receipt which shall be attached to the action. 2. If there are disputed facts contained in the action, the employee should document the disputed facts in his/her written response to and attempt to settle the dispute with the supervisor. If attempts to reach accord are unsuccessful, the employee may appeal the action. 3. If the employee wishes to appeal, he or she shall forward the action and response to the Police Chief via the chain of command. The Police Chief shall assign the appeal to sworn personnel, outside the chain of command of the employee, who normally investigate internal affairs, for a fact-finding investigation. 4. The investigation shall only confirm or deny the disputed facts of the appeal. The results of the investigation shall be documented and attached to the appeal. The appeal shall then be returned to the Police Chief for review. 5. The Police Chief shall review the appeal in its entirety. The Police Chief shall determine the matter by adopting the action in its entirety, modifying the action or rejecting the action.

Absent any appeal, and within thirty (30) calendar days of receiving the written reprimand, file a written rebuttal to the Police Chief. The rebuttal will be attached to the written reprimand and filed in the employee’s personnel file. b. Within thirty (30) calendar days of receiving a written reprimand, an employee may file a written request with the Personnel Director for an appeal to the City Manager. Upon receipt of the request, and within fifteen (15) calendar days, the City Manager will schedule a hearing. The hearing will be scheduled within thirty (30) days of the City Manager receiving the request. The City Manager will be the final appeal authority. After the City Manager’s final decision is reached, and within thirty (30) calendar days of receiving the decision, the employee may submit a written rebuttal to the decision. The rebuttal shall be attached to the decision and filed in the employee’s personnel file. B. Arbitrable Appeals 1.

Said right of appeal shall not apply to reclassifications, layoffs, demotions as a substitute for layoff, changes in status for medical reasons, changes in status due to the employee’s loss of a required license or certificate, denial of a step increase, or any other actions taken for non-disciplinary reasons.

A notice of appeal must be filed in writing with the Human Resources Director within thirty (30) days following written notice to the employee of the discipline. 3. Upon filing the notice of appeal, the city shall request a list of seven hearing officers from the State Mediation and Conciliation Service. The CITY and employee shall alternately strike names from the list until only one name remains and the remaining name shall be that of the Hearing Officer. The parties shall toss a coin to determine who will strike first. As an alternative, the parties may stipulate to the use of any person as a hearing officer whether identified on the list or not. 4. The Hearing Officer shall proceed in any manner which will, in the Hearing Officer’s judgment, develop all the facts bearing upon the matter, and no informality on the Officer’s part shall constitute just cause for criticism of findings and decisions. Upon completion of the hearing, the Hearing Officer shall furnish certified copies of findings and decisions to the persons concerned. The decision of the Hearing Officer shall be final and binding. ---PAGE BREAK--- Effective Date: 07/01/2023 65 MPOA MOU 5. The person selected as the Hearing Officer shall set a date for the start of the hearing after consultation with the parties. Failure of the employee to appear at the hearing will constitute a withdrawal of the appeal and the discipline will stand and be final, unless the failure to appear is the result of a verifiable emergency that prevents the employee from attending the hearing. A verifiable emergency shall not include any situation where the employee fails to notify the Personnel Director by close of business on the day preceding the first day of the hearing unless said emergency occurs after the close of business. In all cases where the employee fails to attend the hearing and the hearing is postponed, the employee shall bear any and all hearing officer and/or court reporter costs associated with the postponement. 6. Oral evidence at the hearing shall be taken only on oath or affirmation. 7. Each party shall have these rights at the hearing: To be represented by Counsel; to call and examine witnesses; to introduce exhibits; to cross- examine opposing witnesses on any matter relevant to the issues even though that matter was not covered in the direct examination; to impeach any witness regardless of which party first called him or her to testify; to subpoena witnesses and relevant documentary evidence; and to rebut the evidence against him or her. Further, at the hearing the employee may be examined and may examine or cause any person to be examined under Section 776 of the Evidence Code. 8. The hearing need not be conducted according to the provisions of the California Evidence Code, except as hereinafter provided. Any relevant evidence shall be admitted if it is the sort of evidence on which responsible persons are accustomed to rely on in the conduct of serious affairs, regardless of the existence of any common law or statutory rule which might make improper the admission of the evidence over objection in civil actions. Hearsay evidence may be used for the purpose of supplementing or explaining other evidence but shall not be sufficient in itself to support a finding unless it would be admissible over objection in civil actions. The rules of privilege as set forth in the Evidence Code shall apply. Irrelevant and unduly repetitious evidence shall be excluded. 9. Evidence of specific instances of a complainant’s sexual conduct with individuals other than the alleged perpetrator is presumed inadmissible absent an offer of proof establishing its relevance and reliability and that its probative value is not substantially outweighed by the probability that its admission will create substantial danger of undue prejudice or confuse the issue. For purpose of this paragraph, “complainant” means any person claiming to have been subjected to conduct which constitutes sexual harassment, sexual assault, or sexual battery. 10. At the request of either of the parties, the CITY shall employ a competent court reporter to record the proceedings. ---PAGE BREAK--- Effective Date: 07/01/2023 66 MPOA MOU 11. Parties to the proceedings shall include the appellant and a management employee from appellant’s department. If either party requests it, the Hearing Officer may exclude from the hearing room any witness not at the time under examination so that the witness may not hear the testimony of other witnesses, but a party to the proceedings may not be so excluded. In addition, each side may designate other representatives to attend the hearing provided these representatives do not testify at the hearing. 12. The Hearing Officer shall, after the matter is submitted, prepare and file findings and decisions. The decisions of the Hearing Officer shall be final and binding. The decisions shall be rendered as quickly as possible with due regard for the hardships that may result from undue delay. 13. The cost of the Hearing Officer and court reporter shall be divided equally between the CITY and the employee. The Hearing Officer and court reporter shall separately bill the CITY and the appellant for one-half of the cost of their respective services. C. All other administrative policies and procedure shall be as contained in the Personnel Rules and Personnel Administrative Orders. SECTION 34: GRIEVANCES A. The purpose of this Section is to establish a grievance procedure on wages, salaries, hours and working conditions for which appeal is not provided by other regulations. The procedure is a systematic means of obtaining further consideration of a problem after reasonable efforts to resolve it through discussion has failed. Grievances should be settled as near as possible to their source and in as informal a setting as possible. B. An employee should first attempt to resolve a grievance through discussion with the supervisor without delay. If the employee is not satisfied with such discussion, then the employee has the right to talk with the supervisor’s supervisor. If the employee does not agree with the decision reached through such discussion, within ten (10) days of the decision a formal written grievance may be filed. Informal grievances shall not be taken above the department or division head. C. Formal written grievances shall be presented to the Department Director. The Department Director shall review the grievance with the employee. Employees have the right to be represented at any such reviews.

The Department Director shall send a written decision to the employee within fifteen (15) days of receipt of the grievance. If the employee does not agree with the decision, or if no answer is received within fifteen (15) calendar days, the employee may present the grievance to the City Manager in writing.

D. The City Manager, or designated representative, shall review the grievance with the employee, the employee’s representative, if any, and with all other appropriate persons. The City Manager may also appoint a fact-finding committee or other employee not in the normal line of supervision to give advice on the grievance. The City Manager shall render a decision to the employee in writing within twenty (20) calendar days after receiving the grievance. The decision of the City manager shall be final, unless the employee requests a hearing before a hearing officer. E. If a hearing is requested, the CITY shall request a list of five hearing officers from the State Mediation and Conciliation Service. The CITY and MPOA shall alternately strike names from the list until only one name remains and the remaining name shall be that of the hearing officer. At the conclusion of the hearing, the hearing officer shall make recommendations to the City Manager. The decision of the City Manager shall be final. F. The time limits specified above may be extended to definite dates by mutual consent of the parties. G. An employee may request assistance from another person of their choosing in preparing for and presenting a grievance at any level of review. Preparation of grievances shall not be done on CITY time or in CITY facilities. H. Employees shall be assured freedom from reprisal for using the grievance procedure. I. All other administrative policies and procedures shall be as contained in the Personnel Rules and Personnel Administrative Orders. SECTION 35: MPOA TIME BANK AND PRESIDENT ASSIGNMENTS A.

Any employee in a non-exempt status exceeding the straight time hours exemption provided by the Fair Labor Standards Act, 29 U.S.C. Section 207 shall be paid for such hours at time and one half.

This chapter is known and may be cited as the Public Safety Officers Procedural Bill of Rights Act. 3301. For purposes of this chapter, the term public safety officer means all peace officers specified in Sections 830.1, 830.2, 830.3, 830.31, 830.32, 830.33, except subdivision 830.34, 830.35, except subdivision 830.36, 830.37, 830.38, 830.4, and 830.5 of the Penal Code. The Legislature hereby finds and declares that the rights and protections provided to peace officers under this chapter constitute a matter of statewide concern. The Legislature further finds and declares that effective law enforcement depends upon the maintenance of stable employer-employee relations, between public safety employees and their employers. In order to assure that stable relations are continued throughout the state and to further assure that effective services are provided to all people of the state, it is necessary that this chapter be applicable to all public safety officers, as defined in this section, wherever situated within the State of California. 3302. Except as otherwise provided by law, or whenever on duty or in uniform, no public safety officer shall be prohibited from engaging, or be coerced or required to engage, in political activity. No public safety officer shall be prohibited from seeking election to, or serving as a member of, the governing board of a school district. 3303. When any public safety officer is under investigation and subjected to interrogation by his or her commanding officer, or any other member of the employing public safety department, that could lead to punitive action, the interrogation shall be conducted under the following conditions. For the purpose of this chapter, punitive action means any action that may lead to dismissal, demotion, suspension, reduction in salary, written reprimand, or transfer for purposes of punishment. The interrogation shall be conducted at a reasonable hour, preferably at a time when the public safety officer is on duty, or during the normal waking hours for the public safety officer, unless the seriousness of the investigation requires otherwise. If the interrogation does occur during off-duty time of the public safety officer being interrogated, the public safety officer shall be compensated for any off-duty time in accordance with regular department procedures, and the public safety officer shall not be released from employment for any work missed. The public safety officer under investigation shall be informed prior to the interrogation of the rank, name, and command of the officer in charge of the interrogation, the interrogating officers, and all other persons to be present during the interrogation. All questions directed to the public safety officer under interrogation shall be asked by and through no more than two interrogators at one time. The public safety officer under investigation shall be informed of the nature of the investigation prior to any interrogation. The interrogating session shall be for a reasonable period taking into consideration gravity and complexity of the issue being investigated. The person under interrogation shall be allowed to attend to his or her own personal physical necessities. The public safety officer under interrogation shall not be subjected to offensive language or threatened with punitive action, except that an officer refusing to respond to questions or submit to interrogations shall be informed that failure to answer questions directly related to the investigation or interrogation may result in punitive action. No promise of reward shall be made as an inducement to answering any question. The employer shall not cause the public safety officer under interrogation to be subjected to visits by the press or news media without his or her express consent nor shall his or her home address or photograph be given to the press or news media without his or her express consent. No statement made during interrogation by a public safety officer under duress, coercion, or threat of punitive action shall be admissible in any subsequent civil proceeding. This subdivision is subject to the following qualifications: This subdivision shall not limit the use of statements made by a public safety officer when the employing public safety department is seeking civil sanctions against any public safety officer, including disciplinary action brought under Section 19572. This subdivision shall not prevent the admissibility of statements made by the public safety officer under interrogation in any civil action, including administrative actions, brought by that public safety officer, or that officer's exclusive representative, arising out of a disciplinary action. This subdivision shall not prevent statements made by a public safety officer under interrogation from being used to impeach the testimony of that officer after an in camera review to determine whether the statements serve to impeach the testimony of the officer. This subdivision shall not otherwise prevent the admissibility of statements made by a public safety officer under interrogation if that officer subsequently is deceased. The complete interrogation of a public safety officer may be recorded. If a tape recording is made of the interrogation, the public safety officer shall have access to the tape if any further proceedings are contemplated or prior to any further interrogation at a subsequent time. The public safety officer shall be entitled to a transcribed copy of any notes made by a stenographer or to any reports or complaints made by investigators or other persons, except those which are deemed by the investigating agency to be confidential. No notes or reports that are deemed to be confidential may be entered in the officer's personnel file. The public safety officer being interrogated shall have the right to bring his or her own recording device and record any and all aspects of the interrogation. If prior to or during the interrogation of a public safety officer it is deemed that he or she may be charged with a criminal offense, he or she shall be immediately informed of his or her constitutional rights. Upon the filing of a formal written statement of charges, or whenever an interrogation focuses on matters that are likely to result in punitive action against any public safety officer, that officer, at his or her request, shall have the right to be represented by a representative of his or her choice who may be present at all times during the interrogation. The representative shall not be a person subject to the same investigation. The representative shall not be required to disclose, nor be subject to any punitive action for refusing to disclose, any information received from the officer under investigation for noncriminal matters. This section shall not apply to any interrogation of a public safety officer in the normal course of duty, counseling, instruction, or informal verbal admonishment by, or other routine or unplanned contact with, a supervisor or any other public safety officer, nor shall this section apply to an investigation concerned solely and directly with alleged criminal activities. No public safety officer shall be loaned or temporarily reassigned to a location or duty assignment if a sworn member of his or her department would not normally be sent to that location or would not normally be given that duty assignment under similar circumstances. 3304. No public safety officer shall be subjected to punitive action, or denied promotion, or be threatened with any such treatment, because of the lawful exercise of the rights granted under this chapter, or the exercise of any rights under any existing administrative grievance procedure. Nothing in this section shall preclude a head of an agency from ordering a public safety officer to cooperate with other agencies involved in criminal investigations. If an officer fails to comply with such an order, the agency may officially charge him or her with insubordination. ---PAGE BREAK--- Effective Date: 07/01/2023 82 MPOA MOU No punitive action, nor denial of promotion on grounds other than merit, shall be undertaken by any public agency against any public safety officer who has successfully completed the probationary period that may be required by his or her employing agency without providing the public safety officer with an opportunity for administrative appeal. No chief of police may be removed by a public agency, or appointing authority, without providing the chief of police with written notice and the reason or reasons therefor and an opportunity for administrative appeal. For purposes of this subdivision, the removal of a chief of police by a public agency or appointing authority, for the purpose of implementing the goals or policies, or both, of the public agency or appointing authority, for reasons including, but not limited to, incompatibility of management styles or as a result of a change in administration, shall be sufficient to constitute "reason or reasons." Nothing in this subdivision shall be construed to create a property interest, where one does not exist by rule or law, in the job of Chief of Police. Except as provided in this subdivision and subdivision no punitive action, nor denial of promotion on grounds other than merit, shall be undertaken for any act, omission, or other allegation of misconduct if the investigation of the allegation is not completed within one year of the public agency's discovery by a person authorized to initiate an investigation of the allegation of an act, omission, or other misconduct. This one-year limitation period shall apply only if the act, omission, or other misconduct occurred on or after January 1, 1998. In the event that the public agency determines that discipline may be taken, it shall complete its investigation and notify the public safety officer of its proposed disciplinary action within that year, except in any of the following circumstances: 1. If the act, omission, or other allegation of misconduct is also the subject of a criminal investigation or criminal prosecution, the time during which the criminal investigation or criminal prosecution is pending shall toll the one-year time period. 2. If the public safety officer waives the one-year time period in writing, the time period shall be tolled for the period of time specified in the written waiver. 3. If the investigation is a multi jurisdictional investigation that requires a reasonable extension for coordination of the involved agencies. 4. If the investigation involves more than one employee and requires a reasonable extension. 5. If the investigation involves an employee who is incapacitated or otherwise unavailable. 6. If the investigation involves a matter in civil litigation where the public safety officer is named as a party defendant, the one-year time period shall be tolled while that civil action is pending. 7. If the investigation involves a matter in criminal litigation where the complainant is a criminal defendant, the one-year time period shall be tolled during the period of that defendant's criminal investigation and prosecution. 8. If the investigation involves an allegation of workers' compensation fraud on the part of the public safety officer. Where a pre-disciplinary response or grievance procedure is required or utilized, the time for this response or procedure shall not be governed or limited by this chapter. If, after investigation and any pre-disciplinary response or procedure, the public agency decides to impose discipline, the public agency shall notify the public safety officer in writing of its decision to impose discipline, including the date that the discipline will be imposed, within 30 days of its decision, except if the public safety officer is unavailable for discipline. Notwithstanding the one-year time period specified in subdivision an investigation may be reopened against a public safety officer if both of the following circumstances exist: Significant new evidence has been discovered that is likely to affect the outcome of the investigation. One of the following conditions exist: The evidence could not reasonably have been discovered in the normal course of investigation without resorting to extraordinary measures by the agency. The evidence resulted from the public safety officer's pre-disciplinary response or procedure. For those members listed in subdivision of Section 830.2 of the Penal Code, the 30-day time period provided for in subdivision shall not commence with the service of a preliminary notice of adverse action, should the public agency elect to provide the public safety officer with such a notice. 3304.5. An administrative appeal instituted by a public safety officer under this chapter shall be conducted in conformance with rules and procedures adopted by the local public agency. 3305. No public safety officer shall have any comment adverse to his interest entered in his personnel file, or any other file used for any personnel purposes by his employer, without the public safety officer having first read and signed the instrument containing the adverse comment indicating he is aware of such comment, except that such entry may be made if after reading such instrument the public safety officer refuses to sign it. Should a public safety officer refuse to sign, that fact shall be noted on that document, and signed or initialed by such officer. 3306. A public safety officer shall have 30 days within which to file a written response to any adverse comment entered in his personnel file. Such written response shall be attached to, and shall accompany, the adverse comment. 3306.5 Every employer shall, at reasonable times and at reasonable intervals, upon the request of a public safety officer, during usual business hours, with no loss of compensation to the officer, permit that officer to inspect personnel files that are used or have been used to determine that officer's qualifications for employment, promotion, additional compensation, or termination or other disciplinary action. Each employer shall keep each public safety officer's personnel file or a true and correct copy thereof, and shall make the file or copy thereof available within a reasonable period of time after a request therefor by the officer. If, after examination of the officer's personnel file, the officer believes that any portion of the material is mistakenly or unlawfully placed in the file, the officer may request, in writing, that the mistaken or unlawful portion be corrected or deleted. Any request made pursuant to this subdivision shall include a statement by the officer describing the corrections or deletions from the personnel file requested and the reasons supporting those corrections or deletions. A statement submitted pursuant to this subdivision shall become part of the personnel file of the officer. Within 30 calendar days of receipt of a request made pursuant to subdivision the employer shall either grant the officer's request or notify the officer of the decision to refuse to grant the request. If the employer refuses to grant the request, in whole or in part, the employer shall state in writing the reasons for refusing the request, and that written statement shall become part of the personnel file of the officer. 3307. No public safety officer shall be compelled to submit to a lie detector test against his or her will. No disciplinary action or other recrimination shall be taken against a public safety officer refusing to submit to a lie detector test, nor shall any comment be entered anywhere in the investigator's notes or anywhere else that the public safety officer refused to take, or did not take, a lie detector test, nor shall any testimony or evidence be admissible at a subsequent hearing, trial, or proceeding, judicial or administrative, to the effect that the public safety officer refused to take, or was subjected to, a lie detector test. ---PAGE BREAK--- Effective Date: 07/01/2023 83 MPOA MOU For the purpose of this section, "lie detector" means a polygraph, deceptograph, voice stress analyzer, stress evaluator, or any other similar device, whether mechanical or electrical, that is used, or the results of which are used, for the purpose of rendering a diagnostic opinion regarding the honesty or dishonesty of an individual. 3307.5. No public safety officer shall be required as a condition of employment by his or her employing public safety department or other public agency to consent to the use of his or her photograph or identity as a public safety officer on the Internet for any purpose if that officer reasonably believes that the disclosure may result in a threat, harassment, intimidation, or harm to that officer or his or her family. Based upon his or her reasonable belief that the disclosure of his or her photograph or identity as a public safety officer on the Internet as described in subdivision may result in a threat, harassment, intimidation, or harm, the officer may notify the department or other public agency to cease and desist from that disclosure. After the notification to cease and desist, the officer, a district attorney, or a United States Attorney may seek an injunction prohibiting any official or unofficial use by the department or other public agency on the Internet of his or her photograph or identity as a public safety officer. The court may impose a civil penalty in an amount not to exceed five hundred dollars ($500) per day commencing two working days after the date of receipt of the notification to cease and desist. 3308. No public safety officer shall be required or requested for purposes of job assignment or other personnel action to disclose any item of his property, income, assets, source of income, debts or personal or domestic expenditures (including those of any member of his family or household) unless such information is obtained or required under state law or proper legal procedure, tends to indicate a conflict of interest with respect to the performance of his official duties, or is necessary for the employing agency to ascertain the desirability of assigning the public safety officer to a specialized unit in which there is a strong possibility that bribes or other improper inducements may be offered. 3309. No public safety officer shall have his locker, or other space for storage that may be assigned to him searched except in his presence, or with his consent, or unless a valid search warrant has been obtained or where he has been notified that a search will be conducted. This section shall apply only to lockers or other space for storage that are owned or leased by the employing agency. 3309.5. It shall be unlawful for any public safety department to deny or refuse to any public safety officer the rights and protections guaranteed to him or her by this chapter. Nothing in subdivision of Section 11181 shall be construed to affect the rights and protections afforded to state public safety officers under this chapter or under Section 832.5 of the Penal Code. The superior court shall have initial jurisdiction over any proceeding brought by any public safety officer against any public safety department for alleged violations of this chapter. In any case where the superior court finds that a public safety department has violated any of the provisions of this chapter, the court shall render appropriate injunctive or other extraordinary relief to remedy the violation and to prevent future violations of a like or similar nature, including, but not limited to, the granting of a temporary restraining order, preliminary, or permanent injunction prohibiting the public safety department from taking any punitive action against the public safety officer. If the court finds that a bad faith or frivolous action or a filing for an improper purpose has been brought pursuant to this chapter, the court may order sanctions against the party filing the action, the parties attorney, or both, pursuant to Sections 128.6 and 128.7 of the Code of Civil Procedure. Those sanctions may include, but not be limited to, reasonable expenses, including attorney's fees, incurred by a public safety department, as the court deems appropriate. Nothing in this paragraph is intended to subject actions or filings under this section to rules or standards that are different from those applicable to other civil actions or filings subject to Section 128.6 or 128.7 of the Code of Civil Procedure. In addition to the extraordinary relief afforded by this chapter, upon a finding by a superior court that a public safety department, its employees, agents, or assigns, with respect to acts taken within the scope of employment, maliciously violated any provision of this chapter with the intent to injure the public safety officer, the public safety department shall, for each and every violation, be liable for a civil penalty not to exceed twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) to be awarded to the public safety officer whose right or protection was denied and for reasonable attorney's fees as may be determined by the court. If the court so finds, and there is sufficient evidence to establish actual damages suffered by the officer whose right or protection was denied, the public safety department shall also be liable for the amount of the actual damages. Notwithstanding these provisions, a public safety department may not be required to indemnify a contractor for the contractor's liability pursuant to this subdivision if there is, within the contract between the public safety department and the contractor, a "hold harmless" or similar provision that protects the public safety department from liability for the actions of the contractor. An individual shall not be liable for any act for which a public safety department is liable under this section. 3310. Any public agency which has adopted, through action of its governing body or its official designee, any procedure which at a minimum provides to peace officers the same rights or protections as provided pursuant to this chapter shall not be subject to this chapter with regard to such a procedure. 3311. Nothing in this chapter shall in any way be construed to limit the use of any public safety agency or any public safety officer in the fulfilling of mutual aid agreements with other jurisdictions or agencies, nor shall this chapter be construed in any way to limit any jurisdictional or interagency cooperation under any circumstances where such activity is deemed necessary or desirable by the jurisdictions or the agencies involved. 3312. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the employer of a public safety officer may not take any punitive action against an officer for wearing a pin or displaying any other item containing the American flag, unless the employer gives the officer written notice that includes all of the following: A statement that the officer's pin or other item violates an existing rule, regulation, policy, or local agency agreement or contract regarding the wearing of a pin, or the displaying of any other item, containing the American flag. A citation to the specific rule, regulation, policy, or local agency agreement or contract that the pin or other item violates. A statement that the officer may file an appeal against the employer challenging the alleged violation pursuant to applicable grievance or appeal procedures adopted by the department or public agency that otherwise comply with existing law. 3313. In the 2005-06 fiscal year, the Commission on State Mandates shall review its statement of decision regarding the Peace Officer Procedural Bill of Rights test claim and make any modifications necessary to this decision to clarify whether the subject legislation imposed a mandate consistent with the California Supreme Court Decision in San Diego Unified School Dist. v. Commission on State Mandates (2004) 33 Cal.4th 859 and other applicable court decisions. If the Commission on State Mandates revises its statement of decision regarding the Peace Officer Procedural Bill of Rights test claim, the revised decision shall apply to local government Peace Officer Procedural Bill of Rights activities occurring after the date the revised decision is adopted.
