The employee shall take compensatory time in lieu of overtime pay. If the employee works over forty (40) hours s/he will be granted time and one half compensatory time. The employee’s immediate supervisor must approve compensatory time; also, compensatory time must be taken within one (1) month from the time the overtime was worked. All overtime worked must be specifically assigned in advance by an employee's supervisor. (The only exceptions allowed are in bona fide emergency situations when overtime is unavoidable and supervisors cannot be contacted for approval.) It is the District's policy to discourage the use of overtime and to keep overtime to the barest minimum commensurate with the District's best interests. Supervisory personnel should organize their department workloads to minimize overtime. Compensation: 1. For non-exempt employees covered under the overtime provisions of the FLSA, overtime will be compensated by allowing compensatory time off at the rate of time and one-half (for example, 1.50 hours of comp time for every overtime hour worked). a. employees will not be allowed to accrue more than 40 hours of compensatory time. b. In exceptional circumstances when the working of substantial amounts of overtime cannot be avoided, the superintendent may approve payment for overtime at the rate of time and one-half the regular rate of pay. No overtime compensation will be granted to any contractual employee, including administrators and other supervisory and professional employees exempted from FLSA overtime coverage.
