From: Chad Becker, the Director of PersonnelTo: Employees
Our financial advisors have finally reached a44on a plan designed to balance the compa-ny's finances. The plan will require us to make some sacrifices, but the good news is that we will not have to give up any of our medical or retirement benefits.
Beginning next year, the vacation allowance for regular full-time employees will be reduced from 12 working days to 10 working days. While this means less time off, we still have two full weeks of leave each year, which is45 with the national average.
Policies concerning overtime have also changed. Unfortunately, salaried employees will no longer be eligible to receive overtime bonuses for putting in extra hours. In addition, the overtime pay rate for part-time workers will be46 by 5.5%, and this rate will only be applied when one full hour or more of overtime is worked.
I realize these changes are upsetting, but they are necessary for the company to continue op-erating at a profit. If you have any questions, please stop by my office.
Thank you
