Compensation for Overtime. 5.7.1 Bargaining unit employees shall be compensated at the rate of one and one-half times their regular hourly rate of pay for all hours worked in excess of eight (8) hours per day or forty (40) hours per week. A bargaining unit employee may request, and his/her immediate supervisor may approve their request, to have compensatory time off in lieu of cash compensation for any overtime worked. Such compensatory time off shall be equivalent with the established rates at the time the overtime was earned. Designated District Office personnel and the immediate supervisor shall be responsible for keeping record of all compensatory time of an employee for the current fiscal year in which it was performed. If the employee does not utilize compensation time during the current fiscal year, the balance will be paid off in the first warrant of the new fiscal year. If the immediate supervisor refuses to approve use of compensatory time as requested by the employee, said employee shall be paid off by warrant within forty-five (45) workdays, except for unusual circumstances. The District reserves the right to utilize non-bargaining unit employees to provide temporary service, as needed, during times of heavy workload when the timely completion of a project is essential and cannot be accomplished by offering overtime to current unit members in the job classification. The District will offer the overtime to unit members in other job classifications who are able to perform the work before employing temporary, non-bargaining unit members.
