CHEYENNE, Wyo. — A change in compensation payments for those employees who are active military is being considered by the Cheyenne City Council tonight, Aug. 22.
The compensation change would affect only employees who are called to active military duty. If passed, retroactively effective on July 1, 2022, the difference between the employee’s city base pay and total military monetary compensation would be compensated by the city. Previously, the compensation provided the difference between the city base pay and military base pay.
Compensation would also only happen in the event that the provided military compensation base pay is lower than the city base pay.
In the amendment, base pay is defined as the regular pay the employee would have received from the city had they not been called to active military duty.
