Common use of Acting Lieutenant Clause in Contracts

Acting Lieutenant. Any member who is designated by the Chief of Police, or designee, as an “Acting Lieutenant” shall be compensated in an amount equal to 6% above the top rate for a sergeant. The Acting Lieutenant designation may be made when the Chief of Police, or designee, in his or her sole discretion, deems it necessary to designate an Acting Lieutenant for a specific and limited period of time under such conditions as the Chief of Police, or designee, may determine. The member designated as an Acting Lieutenant must work a minimum of eight (8) consecutive hours as officer-in-charge in order to be entitled to additional compensation. The exercise of the Chief of Police’s, or designee, discretion as described above is not grievable. When a member serves as an Acting Lieutenant, there will be no break in OPBA seniority.
