   A Command Officer may contribute a sick day from his accumulated sick time to the Time Bank or elect to work a regular day off. However, a Command Officer may only work a regular day off if in so doing his hours worked within the work period will not exceed the maximum non-overtime hours limitation under the Fair Labor Standards Act.

   (b)   If any minor error is made in a Command Officer's pay, it shall be corrected no later than the next pay check, if not corrected on the next paycheck then a voucher shall be issued immediately to correct the error, providing the Command Officer so requests.
   (c)   In the event that payday falls on a holiday, the Command Officers shall receive their pay checks on the Wednesday prior to the holiday.
   (d)   In the event that an error has occurred which results in overpayment to a Command Officer, the City will deduct said overpayment from the next pay check.

   The Commissioner of Accounts will determine said dates of payment.
