(a) Except as specified in §208.40 (c) of this subpart, DHS will reimburse the Sponsoring Agency for fringe benefit costs incurred during Activation according to the following table:
If the Sponsoring Agency or Participating Agency * * * |
Then the Sponsoring Agency or Participating Agency must * * * |
Example |
---|---|---|
(1) Incurs a fringe benefit cost based on the number of base hours worked by a System Member, | Bill DHS for a pro-rata share of the premium based on the number of base hours worked during Activation | The City Fire Department incurs a premium of 3 percent for dental coverage based on the number of base hours worked in a week (53 hours). The City should bill DHS an additional 3 percent of the firefighter's converted compensation for the first 40 hours Activation. |
(2) Incurs a fringe benefit cost based on the number of hours a System Member actually worked (base hours and overtime), | Bill DHS for a pro-rata share of the premium based on the number of hours each System Member worked during Activation | The City Fire Department pays a premium of 12 percent for retirement based on the number of hours worked by a firefighter. The City should bill DHS an additional 12 percent of the firefighter's total compensation during Activation. |
(3) Incurs a fringe benefit cost on a yearly basis based on the number of people employed full-time during the year, | Bill DHS for a pro-rata share of those fringe benefit costs based on the number of non-overtime hours worked during Activation by System Members employed full time | The City Fire Department pays workers compensation premiums into the City risk fund for the following year, based on the number of full-time firefighters employed during the current year. The City should bill DHS for workers compensation premium costs by multiplying the hourly fringe benefit rate or amount by the number of non-overtime hours worked during Activation by full time firefighters who are System Members. |
(b) Differential pay. DHS will reimburse the Sponsoring Agency for direct costs incurred because of any separate differential compensation paid for work performed during an Activation including, but not limited to, differentials paid for holidays, night work, hazardous duty, or other paid fringe benefits, provided such differentials are not otherwise reimbursed under paragraph (a) of this section. A detailed explanation of the differential payment for which the Sponsoring Agency seeks reimbursement must accompany any request for reimbursement under this section together with identification of every fringe benefit sought under §208.40(a) of this part and the method used to calculate each such payment and the reimbursement sought from DHS.
(c) DHS will not reimburse the Sponsoring Agency for fringe benefit costs for Affiliated Personnel.
