SUMMARY
Pursuant to the employment agreements between the City of Hayward and its Council-Appointed Officers (“CAOs”), subject to evaluation and performance, City Council may increase the salaries of the CAOs by resolution. The current employment agreements between the City of Hayward and both the City Attorney and City Clerk expire June 30, 2025, while the City Manager’s current employment agreement expires June 30, 2023.
In March 2022, a total compensation market study was completed for the CAOs. If approved, the CAOs’ amended employment agreements will contain equity increases effective the pay period including January 1, 2023. To implement the equity increases, the City used the methodology included in the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for the Hayward Association of Management Employees (HAME), approved by Council on January 18, 2022 as a framework. The amended agreements also include a one-time, lump-sum payment effective the pay period including July 1, 2022, in recognition of the CAOs’ ongoing satisfactory performance.
