8.4 Compensation for Overtime. <br />A. The preferable method by which overtime shall be compensated is by monetary <br />payment, at one and one-half (1 1/2) times the employee's regular rate of pay. <br />B. Should the Police Chief determine that the best interests of the City will be served <br />thereby, he or his designee may permit an employee to be compensated for <br />overtime work by earning compensatory time off at the rate of one and one-half <br />(1 1/2) hours for each hour of overtime worked. This time, hereinafter identified <br />as "comp time" shall be accrued as set forth below. <br />C. There are two Comp Time banks. The first bank is the Non-FLSA Comp -Time <br />Bank established under the 2013-2015 MOU. Those employees hired after July 1, <br />2015 or those employees with less than 100 hours of Comp -Time at the time the <br />banks were created will not have a Non-FLSA Comp -Time Bank. The second <br />bank is the FLSA Comp -Time Bank. <br />The Non-FLSA Comp Time Bank can never have hours added to it. The <br />hours in that bank can only be used as leave time and when using such <br />leave will not cause the City to have to pay another employee overtime to <br />fill behind the employee using the leave. The comp time in this bank <br />cannot be cashed out during employment, only at the time the employee <br />leaves City employment. If an employee uses the comp time in this bank <br />during employment and exhausts the entire accrual in this bank, the <br />employee's Non-FLSA Comp Time Bank will be closed as no additional <br />hours may accrue into this bank. <br />2. The FLSA Comp Time Bank has a maximum accrual of one -hundred <br />(100) hours. An employee who has 100 hours in this bank will earn <br />overtime paid at time and one half the employee's regular rate of pay for <br />overtime earned in accordance with this MOU and the FLSA. An <br />employee who works overtime and who has less than 100 hours in his/her <br />FLSA Comp Time Bank may be able to accrue hours (at the rate of 1.5 <br />hours for each hour of overtime worked) in accordance with subdivision <br />(B) above. The Comp time in this bank can be cashed in accordance with <br />the provisions detailed below. Each affected employee who has accrued <br />comp time credits in the FLSA Comp Time Bank, may elect to convert up <br />to twenty (20) hours of such accrued time each calendar year quarter to the <br />cash equivalent thereof, to a maximum of eighty (80) hours per calendar <br />year. <br />D. Use of Comp Time from the FLSA Comp Time Bank. <br />1. When an employee submits a request for time off using accrued <br />compensatory time, and that employee has found a qualified replacement, <br />the time off request will be granted. A qualified replacement means that <br />the replacement officer or employee is able to fulfill the requirements of <br />27 <br />65D-35 <br />
