(2) The full-time officer may work the holiday, receive a time-and-one-half rate for the hours worked and schedule a day off with eight hours of pay in lieu of the holiday. Such scheduled day off shall be used within forty-five days of the holiday.
(3) The part-time officer may work the holiday and receive a rate of pay equal to double the employee's regular hourly rate.
