§ 1896.320. Benefits and Cash Payment Calculations.
Currentness
State agencies shall refer to the Department of Personnel Administration's Schedule of Employee Benefit Rates (published online by February 1 of each year at www.dpa.ca.gov) to determine the required Employee Benefit and/or Cash Payment amounts for Qualifying Contracts. Each agency shall select for any Qualifying Contract either the Detailed Rates or the Blended Rate appearing on the most recent Schedule. Detailed Rates and Blended Rates are calculated as specified in subsections (a) and (b) below:
(a) Detailed Rates
Detailed rates consist of the State of California costs for employee benefits per employee per month for employees performing services specified in 1896.300(a)(3), and a calculation of 85 percent of these costs per employee per hour. These costs will be provided for three coverage categories: a single employee with no covered dependents, an employee with one covered dependent, and an employee with two or more covered dependents.
Detailed hourly rates are calculated by determining the costs per hour for each of the three coverage categories defined in (a), using the following steps:
(1) Add together the monthly state costs for health benefits, dental benefits and vision benefits for state employees in each of the categories listed above who perform services listed in 1896.300(a)(3); and
(2) Divide the monthly state costs per employee obtained from (a)(1) above by 173.333.
(b) Blended Rates
Blended rates consist of the average of State of California employee benefit costs per employee per month for all employees performing the services specified in 1896.300(a)(3), and a calculation of 85 percent of this cost per employee per hour.
Blended hourly rates, based on the average cost per hour for all employees in all categories, are calculated by the following steps:
(1) Add together the monthly state costs for health benefits, dental benefits and vision benefits for all state employees who perform services listed in 1896.300(a)(3); and
(2) Divide the monthly costs per employee obtained from (b)(1) above by 173.333.
