Common use of Regular Overtime Clause in Contracts

Regular Overtime. In the event that a bargaining unit member is requested by the primary administrative supervisor to work beyond the regular work day and/or work week, such work shall be compensated at the bargaining unit member’s regular hourly rate for all additional hours up to forty (40) hours. Any paraprofessional who is required to participate in due process activities held during the summer months shall be compensated at the rate of one and one-half (1-1/2) times the bargaining unit member’s regular hourly rate. Bargaining unit members may choose to be compensated for overtime hours worked either in payment or in compensatory time as defined in the Fair Labor Standards Act. Compensatory time may be accumulated at the rate of one and one-half (1½) times up to a maximum of twenty-four (24) hours and may be used at any time, including in combination with one week of vacation for 12-month employees, with the approval of the administrative supervisor. For example, 16 hours of accumulated time, at the rate of one and one- half equals the 24 hour maximum (16 hours x 1.5 = 24). Each person is responsible for keeping an accurate record of compensatory time earned and used and for accurately reporting the time as it is earned and used on proper District payroll forms. Compensatory time may not be carried over from one fiscal year to the next and must be either used or turned in for payment prior to the June 1 payroll report to allow for payment in the year in which the time was accumulated.
