(b) Overtime shall be paid to all hourly employees at one and one-half times the hourly rate for all authorized workers for time worked in excess of forty (40) hours per week. For purposes of this section, time worked shall include only that time spent on duty as defined by the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), plus time compensated but not actually worked for jury duty, vacation and holidays, but shall not include any other uncompensated periods or time which is compensated but not actually worked, including but not limited to, sick leave, compensatory time off or any other paid or unpaid leave of absence. The employee shall not be paid for overtime work that has not been pre-approved by the supervisor. Nothing in this Chapter shall be construed to require the payment of overtime and/or other premium payment more than once for the same hours worked and/or credited.
