WAGES AND HOURS <br />23.WORK HOURS, OVERTIME, AND COMPENSATORY TIME <br /> <br />For purposes of timekeeping and overtime calculations, the regular workweek at the <br />Utilities runs from Tuesday through Monday. <br />Non-exempt employees are paid on the basis of hours worked. Exempt employees are paid <br />on a salary basis; their compensation is not based on the number of hours they work. <br />Overtime & Overtime Compensation <br />Overtime is earned and compensated as follows. <br />All non-exempt employees earn overtime for all time worked in excess of forty (40) hours <br />during the workweek (Tuesday Monday). Regular field workers earn overtime for <br />regular work performed in excess of eight (8) hours in a day. <br />Earned overtime will be compensated a rate equivalent to one and one-half times the <br />pay. <br />Generally, overtime compensation is paid directly to the employee on their regular payroll <br />check for the period in which the overtime is earned. <br />Alternatively, for up to 40 hours of earned overtime per year, non-exempt employees may <br />elect to receive and accrue overtime <br />pay. Comp Time is accrued and paid at the same rate as other earned overtime, i.e., at one <br />and a half timesregular rateof pay; or two times the regular rate for time <br />worked on Sundays or designated holidays. Receipt and Use of Comp Time is explained <br />inmore detail below. <br />Note. Further, if a field workeruses sick or vacation time during the regular eight hour <br />day, this will not affect the earning of overtime for those hours worked in excess of the <br />regular work day. Also, when a field worker is mandated to start work prior to the normal <br />scheduled work day, the hours worked outside of the regular scheduled workday will be <br />paid at a rate of one and one- <br />regular rate for time worked on Sundays or designated holidays; orthe employee may elect <br />to accrue Comp Time for the earned overtime as described below. <br />20 <br />April 2021 <br />95 <br />
