Police_Sergeants_CBA_Expires_09302025.pdf

This is a Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) document for the Police Sergeants union in the City of Lakeland, Florida, with an expiration date of September 30, 2025. The agreement governs employment terms, compensation structures, and working conditions for police sergeants employed by the City's Police Department. The CBA establishes the framework for shift structures, pay rates, benefits, and operational procedures that directly impact the scheduling and timekeeping requirements outlined in the related Public Safety Scheduling and Scheduling Software RFP. The document serves as a critical reference for understanding the complex employment classifications, shift patterns, overtime rules, and staffing provisions that any timekeeping and scheduling software solution must accommodate to ensure compliance with union agreements and operational requirements.

The Police Sergeants CBA contains provisions for shift differentials, overtime compensation at stipulated rates, and specific annual work hour requirements that the proposed software system must support. As a union agreement expiring September 30, 2025, this CBA establishes binding terms that affect how the City's approximately 450 police personnel are scheduled, compensated, and managed operationally. The agreement's requirements for shift bidding, swap protocols, and staffing level enforcement are essential inputs for the software procurement, as the selected solution must be configured to enforce these contractual obligations automatically. Understanding the specific terms within this CBA is necessary for vendors responding to the RFP to ensure their proposed system can fully integrate with and support the City's existing collective bargaining agreements governing police operations.
