Port Orange Police Association, I.U.P.A. Local #6051 Members voted to approve their new one-year contract!<\/p>\n

I.U.P.A. Local #6051\u2019s new contract includes a wage increase with a 3% plus step advancement, a pension cap, vacation accruals increased, holiday hours added for overtime consideration, damaged property increased from $100 to $500 ($400 for eyewear), comp time increased to 84 hours annually, specialty pay for SROs and Drone Operators, improvements to the promotional process for Sergeants, and much more.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, when it was found that I.U.P.A. Local #6051 Member Sergeant Kurtz was negatively impacted by a previous contract change by extending the pay scale to 20 steps. As a Sergeant with 22 years of service, this effect upon him became acute and I.U.P.A. promptly addressed the issue. I.U.P.A. negotiated an adjusted rate of $42.19 for him, which is the 20-year rate of $40.18 plus 5%, effective that pay period, with an additional 3% increase at the start of the new contract.<\/p>\n

The I.U.P.A. Research Department prepared a wage survey for I.U.P.A. Local #6051, which aided them in negotiations. Wage surveys are available upon request to local presidents. They can be a valuable tool for negotiations. Contact alinaj@iupa.org<\/a> to request a survey or other research.<\/p>\n
