Will part-time employees be eligible for the $1000 or $500 bonus?
This bonus is separate from the bonus being received by most Los Angeles County employees later this month. Superior Court of San Bernardino County full-time employees who are members of SEIU 721 will receive a $1,000 bonus and part-timers will receive a pro-rated bonus. For details, call Member Connection at (877) 721-4YOU. They can tell you which bonus applies to you.
And what of LA county court workers? 3%+3% won’t cut it in LA. And please remember bonuses have a 40% taxation rate. A greater percentage is always better.
