There are sufficient funds available in the fiscal year 2024-25 budget in Fund 1160, Budget Unit 511 to accommodate the temporary assignment. The assignment is not anticipated to continue into future budget years.
STAFFING IMPACT:
While the Social Worker Supervisor I position 511-1708-02 at 1.0 FTE, is on leave the Social Worker III position 511-0727C-13, will assume the principal duties of the Social Worker Supervisor I to support the program and staff until the Social Worker Supervisor I’s return. The temporary increase in pay will not increase the overall FTE for Social Services fund 1160511, Adult Protective Services.

ALTERNATIVES TO STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
The Board could choose not to authorize the temporary increase in pay. However, this is not recommended as it would have a negative impact on the ability of the Department of Health and Human Services to meet the needs of our community members.
