B. Should the Department Head determine that the best interests of the City will be <br />served thereby, he or his designee may permit an employee to be compensated for <br />overtime work by taking paid compensatory time off at the rate of one and one-half <br />(I 1/2),times the cinployee's regular base rate of pay. <br />C. Employees shall have the option with Department Head approval to convert a <br />rmaximiun of eighty (80) hours of time and one-half (T 1/2) paid overtime (in <br />compensation for 53 1/3 overtime hours worked) to time and one-half (T 1/2) <br />compensatory time off benefits. Such compensatory time off shall be taken at the <br />discretion of the employee when requested at least 72 hours in advance, subject to <br />the operational needs and staffing requirements of the department. If the <br />Department Head or his or her designee subsequently denies the requested <br />compensatory time offthe employee and department will mutually agree on a future <br />date within one year when the employee can use the paid compensatory time off. <br />If the requested compensatory time off is not used within that one year, such <br />compensatory overtime will be paid off in cash. <br />D. Time off with pay to compensate for overtime worked may be accumulated to a <br />maximum of eighty (80) hours. <br />E. Because each hour of overtime worked is programmatically accrued on a time and <br />one-half (T 1/2) basis, compensatory time off will be taken, and monetary payment <br />will be paid, on a straight, -time basis, Also, upon termination, any earned, unused <br />compensatory time off ("time-on-the-books").will be paid on a straight -time basis. <br />P. Time off with pay to compensate for overtime worked may be taken in increments <br />as small as a half (1/2) hour. <br />G. If compensatory time off is used in excess of that available, such excess <br />compensatory time off will, first, be deducted from any available vacation benefits; <br />finally, deducted from the next scheduled wage or salary payment. <br />H. Time off with pay as compensation for overtime may not be granted or taken in <br />advance of the overtime work for which the time off compensates. Before <br />compensatory time off with pay may be taken, as berein provided, the overtime <br />worked must have been recorded on official payroll records at or about the time the <br />overtime work was performed. In the absence of such recording, no compensatory <br />time off with pay will be permitted. <br />1. Upon an employee's appointment to a position in which overtime may not be <br />earned or upon an employee's separation from employment with the City by <br />resignation, retirement, layoff or otherwise, he or she shall forthwith be <br />compensated for any overtime accumulated to the time immediately preceding such <br />promotion or separation. <br />R-3 <br />
