B. Should the Department Head determine that the best interests of the City will <br />be served thereby, his or her designee may permit an employee to be <br />compensated for overtime work by taking paid compensatory time off at the <br />rate of one and one-half (12/2) times the employee's regular base rate of pay. <br />C. Employees shall have the option to convert a maximum of eighty (80) hours of <br />time and one-half (12/2) paid overtime (in compensation for 532/3 overtime hours <br />worked) to time and one-half (12/2) compensatory time off benefits. Such <br />compensatory time off shall be taken at the discretion of the employee subject <br />to the operational needs and staffing requirements of the department. <br />D. Time off with pay to compensate for overtime worked may be accumulated to <br />a maximum of eighty (80) hours. <br />E. Because each hour of overtime worked is programmatically accrued on a time <br />and one-half (12/2) basis, compensatory time off will be taken, and monetary <br />payment will be paid, on a straight -time basis. Also, upon termination, any <br />earned, unused compensatory time off ("time -on -the -books") will be paid on a <br />straight -time basis. <br />F. Time off with pay to compensate for overtime worked may be taken in <br />increments as small as a half (1h) hour. <br />G. If compensatory time off is used in excess of that available, such excess <br />compensatory time off will be deducted from the next scheduled wage or <br />salary payment.. <br />H. Time off with pay as compensation for overtime may not be granted or taken <br />in advance of the overtime work for which the time off compensates. Before <br />compensatory time off with pay may be taken, as herein provided, the <br />overtime worked must have been recorded on official payroll records at or <br />about the time the overtime work was performed. In the absence of such <br />recording, no compensatory time off with pay will be permitted. <br />I. 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 <br />such promotion or separation. <br />lu <br />25K-20 <br />
