A regular full-time employee called back to work at a time other than his scheduled work shift or who performs authorized work on an official City holiday may be compensated for the actual hours worked at one and one-half (1-1/2) times his regular base hourly rate of pay. The City Manager may at his discretion grant compensatory time off in lieu of pay for overtime if Federal and/or State law(s) permit.
