Current as of January 01, 2024 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

(A) As used in this section:

(1) “Exempt employee” has the same meaning as in section 124.152 of the Revised Code.

(2) “Fiscal emergency” means a fiscal emergency declared by the governor under section 126.05 of the Revised Code.

(B) The director of administrative services may establish a voluntary cost savings program for exempt employees.

(C) The director of administrative services shall establish a mandatory cost savings program applicable to exempt employees. Subject to division (C)(1) of this section, the program may include, but is not limited to, a loss of pay or loss of holiday pay as determined by the director. The program may be administered differently among exempt employees based on their classifications, appointment categories, appointing authorities, or other relevant distinctions.

(1) Each full-time exempt employee shall participate in the program for a total of eighty hours of mandatory cost savings in both fiscal year 2010 and fiscal year 2011. Each part-time exempt employee shall participate in the program by not receiving holiday pay during both fiscal year 2010 and fiscal year 2011. Each employee of the secretary of state, auditor of state, treasurer of state, and attorney general shall participate in the program unless the secretary of state, auditor of state, treasurer of state, or attorney general decides to exempt the officer's employees from the program and so notifies the director of administrative services in writing on or before July 1, 2009.

After July 1, 2009, the secretary of state, auditor of state, treasurer of state, or attorney general may decide to begin participation in the program for eighty hours or less and shall notify the director of administrative services in writing. The secretary of state, auditor of state, treasurer of state, or attorney general and the director shall mutually agree upon an implementation date.

(2) After June 30, 2011, the director of administrative services, in consultation with the director of budget and management, may implement mandatory cost savings days applicable to exempt employees in the event of a fiscal emergency. Each employee of the secretary of state, auditor of state, treasurer of state, and attorney general shall participate in the mandatory cost savings days unless the secretary of state, auditor of state, treasurer of state, or attorney general decides to exempt the officer's employees from the mandatory cost savings days and so notifies the director of administrative services in the manner the director of administrative services prescribes by rule adopted under this section.

(D) The director shall adopt rules in accordance with Chapter 119. of the Revised Code to provide for the administration of the voluntary cost savings program and the mandatory cost savings program.

(E) Cost savings days provided pursuant to this section or by a labor-management contract or agreement shall be considered remuneration for purposes of section 4141.31 of the Revised Code.
