purpose other than a mid -shift rest period. Unused rest breaks may not be used to leave work early. 6.5 Job Sharing General: Job sharing will be considered on an individual basis at an employee's request. Arrangement should be made with the immediate Supervisor. Any agreement between an Employee and Supervisor is subject to approval by the Council. 6.6 Overtime/Compensatory Time General: The City of Centerville has established this overtime policy to comply with applicable State and Federal laws governing accrual and use of overtime. The City Administrator will determine whether each Employee is designated as "exempt" or "non- exempt" from earning overtime. In general, Employees in executive, administrative, and professional job classes are exempt; all others are non-exempt. Non -Exempt Employees: All overtime -eligible Employees will be compensated at the rate of time and one-half (1'/2) for all hours worked over 40 in one workweek. Personal Time Off/Earned Sick and Safe Time (PTO/ESST) and paid holidays will count toward "hours worked." Compensation will take the form of either overtime pay or compensatory time. Compensatory time is paid time off at the rate of one and one-half (1'/2) off for each hour of overtime worked. Workweek: The workweek is Monday morning from 12.00 a.m. to Sunday evening at 11.59 p.m. Approval: The Employee's Supervisor must approve overtime hours in advance. An Employee who works overtime without prior approval may be subject to disciplinary action. Pre -authorization may be presumed by Employees in emergency situations such as excess snowfall, flood, severe storms, water main breaks, lift station malfunctions, or other similar situations where the immediate response of staff is required to avert endangerment of life, home, or property. In the event of an emergency, the City Administrator shall be notified immediately. Compensatory Time: Overtime earned will be paid at the rate of time and one-half (1'/2) on the next regularly scheduled payroll date, unless the Employee and the Supervisor mutually agree in advance the overtime will be banked as compensatory time in lieu of payment. Accumulation: The maximum compensatory time accumulation is eighty (80) hours unless a different amount is established by the City Council. Use of Compensatory Time: Employees may request and use of compensatory time off in the same manner as other leave requests. Supervisors shall normally grant such requests, even if another Employee must be called in to cover the hours, unless it causes a serious disruption in business operations. Page 12 of 60
