11000     GENERAL
(Revised 5/87)

Various statutes provide that specific state agencies may furnish services to employees. The rates for meals, laundry, dry cleaning, and rent of living quarters are established by the State Board of Control. Collections for services to employees will be remitted to the State Treasury for credit to the support appropriation current at the time the employee received the service (in the case of meal tickets, at the time of purchase) unless otherwise specified by law.

Employees of the agency furnishing maintenance services may pay for such services by payroll deductions. Anyone who is not on the payroll of the agency furnishing maintenance services must pay cash for the services unless his employing agency and the central office of the agency furnishing the services have negotiated an agreement approved by the Fiscal Systems and Consulting Unit, Department of Finance.

The usual payroll deduction procedure in maintenance is described herein. Briefly, this procedure permits ledgerless accounting for employee maintenance charges, thereby eliminating the maintenance of individual employee ledger accounts and the recording of charges and credits thereon. (See SAM Section 11074.)

Agencies that offer services to employees, the total charge for which does not ordinarily vary from month to month, may, by agreement with the State Controllers Office, use a fixed deduction for maintenance by filing Report of Miscellaneous Changes, Std. Form 606. (See Section 47.1 of Controller's Payroll Manual.)
