The City of Fayetteville offers a comprehensive benefit package for part-time employees to include the accrual of vacation, sick, and holiday time at a reduced rate.
Employer Paid Leave
Paid Vacation:
Employees earn vacation leave beginning the first day of employment, however, they are not eligible to take leave for 6 months. Leave accruals are based upon the number of years of service and the number of hours an employee is scheduled to work.
Paid Holidays:
The City of Fayetteville observes 11 paid holidays per calendar year. The approved holidays are New Year’s Day, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Veteran’s Day, 2 days at Thanksgiving and 2 days at Christmas.
Sick / Funeral Leave:
Regular employees earn sick leave in proportion to the number of hours they are scheduled to work per week. Sick leave accruals begin the first day of employment. Sick leave can also be taken for deaths in your extended family. Sick leave hours accumulate without limits and may be used toward credible service upon retirement from the NC Local Government Retirement System.
Deferred Compensation Plans:
The City offers two supplemental retirement savings programs. These programs offer employees an opportunity to save a portion of their salary on a tax-deferred basis. The programs offered are 401(k) Supplemental Retirement Income Plan and the ICMA 457 Plan.
Pay Periods/Direct Deposit:
City employees are paid bi-weekly, every other Friday. As an added convenience and safety measure, the City requires all new employees to sign up for direct deposit of their payroll checks.
Employee Assistance Program:
The EAP is available at no cost to all employees and their household members. The EAP provides confidential guidance on legal, financial and personal issues that could affect your health, relationships and job performance.
