Many of the seasonal employees in the Parks have a top wage of $10.87 per hour. What is even worse is that the number of hours that they can work in a season is capped at 1500 hours so that the County will not have to offer them health insurance. I was informed that these employees were not covered by the minimum wage bill and the only raise in pay that they were going to get will be a 1% raise in April.<br /><br />Maybe the County Executive is holding out until these employees are included and the cap on their hours is removed.<br /><br />Yeah, right.<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
