All full-time employees may elect to utilize compensatory time in lieu of cash payment for overtime hours worked. The employee may select number of hours to be converted to comp-time or to be paid. The employee may not accrue more than twenty-four (24) hours.* Comp-time may be taken off in not less than half-day increments (before lunch or after lunch) if staffing is suitable and the employee's supervisor gives prior approval. The Fiscal Officer/Clerk is responsible to keep accurate records of time accrued and used. Time off using comp-time must be requested as far in advance as possible of the day off requested. Only one (1) employee of each shift of any depat1ment shall be permitted to take off on either comp-time or vacation time. If an employee moves to an exempt position, the employee is required to cash out all accrued comp-time prior to moving to that position.
*Employees with in excess of 24 hours accrued comp-time as of the effective date of this section will be permitted to obtain said comp-time, but may not accrue additional comp-time until their comp-time bank does not exceed 24 hours total including additional accrued comp time. Any comp-time not used within 180 days from the effective date of this section shall be paid out to the employee by the Village Fiscal Officer.
