RE: Article 19 - Sections Seven, Eight and Nine

Article 19, Sections 7, 8 and 9 address premium payment for personnel assuming Officer In Charge status. The intent of this language is to compensate an individual when performing intermittently in the capacity of "Officer In Charge" due to the absence of the individual who holds such position.

This provision (Sections 7, 8 and 9) is not intended to be utilized to avoid promotion or temporary service in a higher class. The intent is clearly for coverage during absence and not for long term replacement due to termination, resignation or retirement.
