RE: Interpreter Stipend


I completed a quick search of documents and did not find anything. This was all implemented before my time. I will see if any “old timers” have any documentation.

I am unfamiliar with the on-call stipend/agreement for CPS supervisors, as that was completed prior to being under the County system and HR was not consulted.  Please forward me any info/doc so that I can review and become familiar.

Subject: Interpreter Stipend

 

Good afternoon,

I would like to discuss the option of paying a monthly stipend to staff who as a part of their work provide interpreter services.  I think this will help us eliminate the need to fill the interpreter position.  I know that the Health Dept. also has an interpreter for some circumstances.  This stipend would serve two purposes: 1. Help keep at Alexander County a couple of our Adult Medicaid staff members (without developing a separate job description), 2. Recognize this additional skill provided. I would like to implement this, similar to the on call stipend for CPS supervisors. Is this possible? What will be required?
