(A) OVERTIME means any time actually worked by a nonexempt employee in excess of 40 hours in any single workweek. In addition, if a nonexempt employee works seven days in any one workweek and works over 40 hours in those seven days, all hours worked on the seventh day are at time and one-half. For purposes of this section, WORKWEEK is defined in this handbook.
(B) Time off with pay such as holiday hours, vacation and sick leave hours are not included in the calculations for overtime purposes.
(C) The city is required under the FLSA and state wage and hour laws to pay overtime wages to a nonexempt employee if the employee works more than 40 hours in a single workweek. Overtime wages will be calculated at a rate of one and one-half times the employee’s regular hourly rate of pay.
(D) If possible, nonexempt employees must be authorized orally or in writing by the employee’s supervisor prior to the employee’s performance of any work that would result in overtime. The employee will verify that his or her time record accurately reflects any overtime worked as required in §§ 36.120 through 36.130. Any employee who works overtime without prior authorization or fails to properly report overtime work will be subject to disciplinary action.
(E) The Mayor and the employee’s supervisor may require any nonexempt employee to take time off during any workweek that the employee has worked or will work more than 40 hours to minimize overtime costs.
(F) Exempt employees are not eligible for overtime compensation.
