<br />Personal leave and paid holidays will count toward "hours worked." Compensation <br />will take the form of either overtime payor compensatory time. Compensatory time <br />is paid time off at the rate of one and one-half (1 Yz) off for each hour of overtime <br />worked. <br /> <br />Workweek: The workweek is Sunday morning from 12:00 a.m. to Saturday evening <br />at 11:59 p.m. <br /> <br />- - - - <br />Approval: The Employee's supervisor must approve overtime hours in advance. <br />An Employee who works overtime without prior approval may be subject to <br />disciplinary action. Pre-authorization may be presumed by Employees in emergency <br />situations such as excess snowfall, flood, severe storms, water main breaks, lift <br />station malfunctions, or other similar situations where the immediate response of <br />staff is required to avert endangerment of life, home or property. In the event of an <br />emergency situation, the City Administrator shall be notified immediately. <br /> <br />Compensatory Time: Overtime earned will be paid at the rate of time and one-half <br />on the next regularly scheduled payroll date, unless the Employee and the <br />Department Head mutually agree in advance the overtime will be banked as <br />compensatory time in lieu of payment. This advance agreement can take the form of <br />the Employee indicating on his/her timesheet that he/she would prefer to receive <br />compensatory time rather than paid overtime for the overtime hours worked on that <br />payroll period. <br /> <br />Accumulation: The maximum compensatory time accumulation is forty (40) hours <br />unless a higher amount is established by the City Council. <br /> <br />Use of Compensatory Time: Employees may request and use compensatory time <br />off in the same manner as other leave requests. Supervisors shall normally grant <br />such requests, even if another Employee must be called in to cover the hours, unless <br />it causes a serious disruption in business operations. <br /> <br />Exempt Employees: Exempt Employees are expected to work whatever hours are <br />necessary in order to meet the performance expectations outlined by their <br />supervisors. Generally, to meet these expectations, and for reasons of public <br />accountability, an exempt Employee will need to work forty (40) or more hours per <br />week. Exempt Employees do not receive extra pay for the hours worked over forty <br />(40) in one workweek. <br /> <br />Salary Basis: Exempt Employees are paid on a salary basis. This means they <br />receive a predetermined amount of pay each pay period and are not paid by the hour. <br />Their pay does not vary based on the quality or quantity of work performed, and <br />they receive their full salary for any day in which any work is performed. The City <br />will only make deductions from the weekly salary of an exempt Employee in the <br />following situations: <br /> <br />A) <br /> <br />The Employee is in a position that does not earn personal leave and is absent <br />for a day or more for personal reasons other than sickness or accident. <br /> <br />B) <br /> <br />The Employee is in a position that earns personal leave, receives a short term <br />disability benefit or workers' compensation wage loss benefits, and is absent <br />for a full day due to sickness or disability, but he/she is either not yet <br /> <br />Page 12 of 47 <br /> <br />gd <br />
