OVERTIME HOURS AND RATES Overtime is the time worked in excess of forty (40) hours per work week for employees scheduled in a seven (7) day work period, on one or more University jobs. All hours worked by an employee greater than twelve (12) consecutive hours in any work day shall be paid at time and one-half the employee's regular rate of pay. Compensation shall not be paid more than once for the same hours under any provision of this Agreement. Overtime worked with the prior approval of the supervisor shall be compensated by pay or by compensatory time off, at the option of the employee, unless payment in cash is prohibited by funding source or availability of funds as determined by the Department. Each department shall identify in writing more than one (1) person authorized to approve overtime. If payment of cash overtime is prohibited, the employee should be informed of that fact before working the overtime, or at the time of hire, or when funding source or availability of funds as determined by the Department requires a change in the compensation method. All employees shall be paid or receive compensatory time at time and one-half (1.5) the employee's regular rate for overtime as defined above. An employee may use compensatory time, subject to the approval of the supervisor, within a reasonable period of time after a request to do so, unless the use would unduly disrupt the operation of the Department. Requests to use compensatory time shall be given reasonable consideration. Departments have full discretion to limit (in accordance with written Department policy) the amount of compensatory time off that can be accumulated and the length of time a compensatory time off balance can be carried forward, except that maximum limits imposed by statute (i.e., 160 hours of straight time, 240 hours at time and one-half) will be strictly followed. Upon request of the employee and the approval of the Department, compensatory time may be cashed out. The payment for paid overtime shall be processed without undue delay when possible. Departments are encouraged to process all overtime in the pay period in which it was worked.
