  Early Retirement Incentive

On February 9, 2010, the Board of Supervisors authorized the implementation of an Early Retirement Incentive Program for eligible employees covered under the County of Riverside Miscellaneous contract with CalPERS. Eligible employees who elect to participate in the Early Retirement Incentive Program will receive two additional years of service credit, if their CalPERS retirement date is no earlier than February 12, 2010 and no later than August 9, 2010.  For more information, visit the Benefits Website or call the Retirement Division at (951) 955-4981, Option #2.

  Mandatory Furlough Updates

On April 7, 2009, the Board of Supervisors approved the Management Resolution, which permitted the County Executive Officer to implement mandatory furloughs for all County employees covered by the Management Resolution.  Effective August 13, 2009, Management, Confidential, and Other Unrepresented groups are required to mandatory furlough 20 days (160 hours) during the 2009/10 fiscal year.  Please review the Mandatory Furlough Questions and Answers (Q&A) for questions you might have regarding Mandatory Furloughs.

On September 1, 2009 the Board of Supervisors adopted the 2009/10 MOU with SEIU.  SEIU represented employees are required to take a total of 208 mandatory furlough hours by June 30, 2010.  See copy of SEIU 2009/10 MOU.

  Voluntary Furlough Program

On December 23, 2008 the Voluntary Furlough Program (Policy C-31) was updated.  The updated program is designed to reduce the overall wage obligations of the County while protecting employees' benefit plans, seniority and positions with the County.  In light of the projected budget challenges over the next three years it is prudent to have available furlough options to assist the County with budgetary concerns and restraints.  Employees who take advantage of the Voluntary Furlough Programs will be given credit for that time should the County move to a Mandatory Furlough Program.

For more information about this program, how to enroll or what this will mean to you please review the Payroll Insert with Q&A's, PowerPoint Presentation, or Policy C-31 Form-11.
