Personnel Committee Narratfve, May 4, 2023
Item 4: We have discussed a volunteer policy for the county for quite a while. The topic involves
responsibility for volunteers, potentfal liability coverage if an incident were to occur, etc. In general, by
law, a volunteer for the county is covered under the workers compensatfon in the event they are injured.
The County also may have liability for the volunteer’s actfons. The attached sample from Placer County
hits on many of the topics that would need to be considered. With the Committee’s approval we will put
this into form for Bayfield County and present at the next meetfng for consideratfon.
This was a topic one of the Youth Scholarship winners wrote about. The essay is below.
Item 5. The Highway Department is proposing an Assistant to the Patrol Superintendent. We will have a
draft job descriptfon early next week and place in the dropbox. The intent is to provide backup/support
to the patrol superintendent and supervision and leadership on job sites. We contfnue to review the
dutfes and responsibilitfes as well as pay status, salaried or hourly and other details.
Item 6. We have discussed several minor personnel manual amendments over the past several months
for the Emergency Responder Leave program. We recently had some recommended clarificatfons for
county employees on jury duty. These changes / clarificatfons are shown below.
3.7 Emergency Responders Leave
Bayfield County supports the efforts of Emergency Response agencies and encourages
county employees that are members of these agencies to participate in emergency
response.
3.7.1 Responding to Emergencies Before Work Hours Begin
Wisconsin Statute §103.88(2): An employer shall permit an employee who is a
volunteer fire fighter, emergency medical services practitioner, emergency medical
responder, or ambulance driver for a volunteer fire department, fire company,
EMS Agency, a public agency, or a nonprofit corporation to be late for or absent
from work if the lateness or absence is due to the employee responding to an
emergency that begins before the employee is required to report to work and if
the employee complies with sub. (3) (a). This subsection does not entitle an
employee to receive wages or salary for the time the employee is absent from
work due to responding to an emergency as provided in this subsection.
3.7.2 Responding to Emergencies After Work Hours Begin
Bayfield County employees who are volunteer emergency responders (e.g., active
Emergency Medical Technicians, Emergency Medical Responders or firefighters)
may respond to calls for emergency services during their work shift based on the
following guidelines:
a) Employees shall provide their supervisors with documented evidence of their
current status as an emergency responder annually.
b) Employees may only be granted leave to respond to emergency calls subject
to the approval of their supervisor. Supervisors are encouraged to dialog with
and support employees who are emergency responders and their requests for
time off to the maximum extent practicable.
c) While on such leave, employees are deemed not to be acting in their official
capacity as an employee of the County and the County is not liable for any
damages or injuries the employee may sustain or cause while taking such
leave.
d) Emergency Responders shall not sign up for “on-call duty” during county work
hours.
3.9 Jury Duty
Regular full-time and regular part-time employees are eligible for paid jury leave. Paid
jury leave will be paid based at an employee’s base hourly rate and scheduled hours.
Employees serving on jury duty are not eligible for mileage reimbursement.
Employees must submit all reimbursements for serving on jury duty to the County if their
regular salary is paid. If an employee is released from jury duty prior to the end of the
work day, he/she must notify the supervisor as soon as possible that he/she is available
for work.
Item 7. In April of last 2022 the county board adopted a new wage classificatfon scale. Employees were
moved to the next step at that tfme and then received a step and cost of living adjustment on Jan 1.
Increases ranged from 1% to 10%. On Jan 1, 2023, all Bayfield County employees (union and non-union)
received a 3% cost of living adjustment in additfon to step increases (varying amounts). At the same
tfme the Jan WERC COLA was over 7%.
As we enter the second quarter of 2023 several HR topics are evident:
1. Applicatfons for open positfons are down dramatfcally. The Annual Employment Stats and
Trends shows 2022 as the lowest number of average applicants per positfon at just over 5.
2. Recent advertfsements for the customary two week period are averaging 1-5 applicants.
Positfon advertfsed longer, ie: three month are getting 10 +.
3. The impact of losing employees or having long-term openings is costly and impactiul on other
staff.
4. While the 2024 CPI is antfcipated to be in the 3-4% range, the 2023 CPI levels, while dropping
slightly over the past several months (see chart below), are stfll over 7% for October according to
the WERC.
5. In 2022 Bayfield County made multfple adjustments, this included wage scale adjustments AND a
move to 40-hour weeks. This move alone increased employee compensatfon for work
performed by 6.6%.
In 2022 the wage schedule was adjusted. In 2023 we could consider several compensatfon optfons to
address contfnued recruitment and retentfon challenges. We are very much aware that employees are
the county’s greatest resource. Retaining and recruitfng top quality employees is important.
Based on this we see several possible optfons:
1. Mid-year wage scale indexing: 1-3%
2. Stfpend amount, not added in annual wage, flat dollar amount or percent.
3. Plan for a January 2024 wage scale indexing.
Based on the Committee’s directfon we can pursue more in-depth review of any or all of these from a
financial perspectfve at the next meetfng.
Item 9. Reports
• The end of April 2023 Personnel Financial Report shows overall personnel expenditures at 28%
of the budget, which is within budget as of end of April. Actual expenditure is $4.68 million
versus $4.18 last year. An increase of $500,000 over 2022.
• On April 6 Governor Evers signed Act 4 as it relates to Jailer Protectfve Status. The Act goes into
effect on January 1, 2024. Employees can opt out if they choose. Here are some highlights.
o The bill aims to attract and retain Wisconsin county jail staff, as the state has
recently seen a shortage.
o The bill gives workers the same benefits as others with protective
occupation (law enforcement) status. The benefits include earlier
retirement at the age of 50 and disability benefits, the governor’s office
announced.
o Assembly Bill 28, now called 2023 Wisconsin Act 4, reclassifies county
jailers under the Wisconsin Retirement System to deliver these benefits.
o Wisconsin prisons have seen a staffing shortage recently, according to
a report. Better staffing in prisons allows prisoners more time outside of
their rooms, resulting in higher quality of life.
o Those that opt in will be able to pay a higher retirement amount,
equivalent to other protective service employees, preparing themselves for
the 50-year retirement age.

Meeting called to order at 4:00pm by Chairman Rondeau
Public Comment: None Received
Minutes of March 2, 2023: Motion Milanowski, Strand to approve minutes of the March 2,
2023 Personnel Committee meeting. Motion Carried (5-0)
Presentation by Teamsters, Zak Radzak: Rod Alstead reported that during union negotiations,
the board agreed that they would re-evaluate the negotiated increase and the CPI-U. A handout
was provided listing the CPI-U history. The CPI-U for January 1, 2023 was 7.17%, the union
negotiated a 3% increase. Radzak thanked the board for awarding a 5% mid-year increase in
2022. Request was made for a 4.17% increase. Dalton Collins expressed appreciation for the
5% mid-year increase in 2022, but does not want to see the Teamster wages fall behind. Rate
increase for the Teamster Health Insurance for 2023 was 1.42%.
Creation of new positions and placement of existing staff into those positions:
CCS Substance Abuse Counselor: Skulan reported that CCS participants that
have Substance Abuse issues must receive Substance Abuse counseling as part of the
program. Addition of this position will allow the service to be provided in-house
rather than contract and will provide an additional incentive for staff to increase their
skills and wage. The CCS program pays for nearly 100% of the cost of the program.
One staff person has achieved their Substance Abuse Certification and is proposed to
be reclassified to this position. Skulan stated that certification would not be an
automatic trigger for reclassification.
Temporary CCS Direct Care Service Array Worker: Skulan reported that this
individual was originally a staff member, then moved into an intern position with the
county. They will fill a need for array services temporarily over the summer months.
Motion Dougherty, Milanowski to create the CCS Substance Abuse Counselor
position and CCS Direct Care Service Array Worker as presented. Motion Carried
(5-0)
Land Records, Land Information Specialist: Proposal for a ¾ time position in the
Land Records Office to assist with Real Property Lister position. There has been a
significant increase in land transactions in the last 4 years which has significantly
increased the workload of the Real Property Lister.
911 Dispatch positions, 2 (CCO): Addition of 2 CCO’s to fulfill the requirements to
be eligible for the Joint Dispatch Grant. Funding has been approved by the Executive
Committee.
Tourism/Fair: Current 62% Fair Coordinator position is proposed to be increased to
help with oversight of additional services at the Fairgrounds. Getting the campground
certified and reconstructing the Fair Premium catalog per the new state regulations is
driving the need for additional staff time. This position also coordinates the winter
storage at the Fairgrounds. The request is to make the position a ¾ time position for
2023.
Committee discussed where the funding will come from for the requests that have
been discussed.

Other Activities:
• Worked with the Website Re-design team to finalize the website re-design.
• Worked with a couple of Department Heads on performance and/or communication
situations as well as staffing discussions related to leaves and/or vacancies.
• Met with Health Department staff to discuss options for an Americorps application. This
would be a multi-year commitment.
• Sixteen (16) employees are participating in the Leadership Training series. Three of the six
sessions have been completed.
• Met with the IT Security Workgroup. This group is working to identify security requirements
of various statutes, agencies, etc and reviewing county policies and protocols to ensure we
are in compliance with all requirements. The “whys” behind why we do certain things the
way we do.
• Participate in a Tornado Drill.
• Met with a representative from the Department of Safety and Professional Services for a
Work Comp Claim review.
• Participated in Executive and Personnel Committee meetings.
• Listened to two webinars:
o Crisis Management, which was about having a plan in place to react if/when a crisis
occurs such as fraud/embezzlement, Safety/Security Breach, Physical Crisis (such as
a shooting), Misconduct, etc. Ensuring that all relevant parties know what their role
is and how the organization as a whole reacts (media, insurance, employee well-
being etc).
o WI Act 4, which is regarding Jailer Protective Status provisions that will take effect in
2024.
• Met with the new Benefit Administrator for the Whole Life Insurance program. Reviewed
several voluntary insurance quotes. The intent is to develop an employee focus group to
review options for replacing a few of our voluntary insurances with more cost-effective
policies. If any recommendations are made, they will be shared with the Personnel
Committee. A 2024 implementation would be anticipated if any changes are recommended.
• Met with a couple of employees interested in changing their current positions for other
available positions. It is always nice to see employees willing to take on new challenges with
greater responsibilities.
• Met with the Highway and Land Records offices to finalize recommendations for staffing
modifications.
• Processed a request for Emergency Leave Bank Donations.
• Processed a handful of Family and Medical Leaves.
