EMPLOYEE SUGGESTION INCENTIVE PROGRAM: Mrs. Carolyn Harris,
Personnel Director, presented this to the board. Mr. Mashburn said
this program was being presented in conjunction with the board's
request during budget time for an incentive program.
The goal was to develop a program that would be easy to
administer and provide awards to encourage employee participation.
They have looked at materials and at programs from other cities and
counties. A draft was written and submitted to department heads
for review. $50,000 was set aside in the budget for this program.
Commissioner Boone said there should probably be a provision
that the county commissioners would be notified of any awards that
were given. Mrs. Harris said there would be administrative
procedures put in place on how the evaluation committee would work.
They plan to have some type of an award presentation at a
commissioners' meeting.
Commissioner Boone said he thought this program would be good
as far as it goes. He also thought there should be incentives for
department heads and the county manager to show a permanent saving
to the county. He thought this would be a good program.
MOTION from Commissioner Madison to approve the program as
presented and see if we can't put it in place.
