Section 3: A. Overtime Pay Overtime All employees required to work in excess of 40 hours in a seven- day cycle shall receive compensation at the rate of time and one-half their regular rate of pay. In determining an employee's eligibility for overtime, paid leaves of absences shall be included in the total hours worked. There shall be no pyramiding of overtime. Hours worked by an employee in any workday or workweek on which premium rates have once been allowed shall not be used again in any other overtime calculation other than computing total actual hours worked. Overtime shall be recorded and paid in minimum increments of 15 minutes. B. Compensatory Time Off In lieu of receiving overtime pay pursuant to Section A above, full-time employees may elect to accrue up to 40 hours of compensatory time off on a time and one-half basis. Each department head may authorize additional compensatory time accrual up to a maximum of 80 hours. One department head's decision to authorize additional compensatory time places no obligation for other department heads to do the same. All hours in excess of the maximum number accruable shall be paid at time and one-half the regular rate of pay. An employee may use such compensatory time within a reasonable period after making the request if the use of compensatory time does not unduly disrupt the operations of the department. C. Overtime Authorization All overtime requests must have the authorization of a supervisor prior to the commencement of such overtime work. where prior written authorization is not feasible, explicit verbal authorization must be obtained. Calls for service beyond the end of duty time are considered as authorized. An employee's failure to obtain prior approval may result in the denial of the overtime request.
