When a regular shift officer is absent or excused from his or her duties, the Chief of Police may designate a lead man who will assume the duties and responsibilities of the shift officer. The lead man shall be compensated at an hourly rate of pay of one job grade lower than the job grade and step of the officer he or she is replacing, instead of at his or her normal hourly rate, provided that the shift officer is absent or excused from duty for not less than four hours. If an officer, other than the regular shift officer, is present on the shift, that officer shall assume the duties and responsibilities of the absent shift officer, and the lead man shall receive his or her normal hourly rate of pay.
