(B) For most village employees, the established work period is 40 hours within a seven-day work week. The work week begins at 12:01 a.m. Monday and ends at 12:00 p.m. Sunday. All employees who work at least 40 hours are full-time employees.
(C) Non-exempt employees are entitled to additional compensation, either in cash or compensatory time off, when they work more than the maximum numbers of hours during a work period.
