All hours worked outside of the hours the employee was originally scheduled to work shall be paid at the employee’s overtime rate of pay or in compensatory time off, at their discretion. If the employee voluntarily requests a new patrol shift outside of their regular patrol shift, then the overtime and compensatory time off provisions of this section shall not apply.

Shift Adjustment. In the matter of shift adjustments, it is agreed that the following guidelines will be followed: • In any situation necessitating a shift adjustment, volunteers will first be sought. • Shift adjustments will not be for more than two hours. • Shift adjustments for special units or assignments are not covered by this guideline and remain the discretion of the Unit Supervisor or Bureau Commander. • Whenever volunteers cannot be located, Sergeants assigned will be chosen sequentially by seniority. • Generally, no more than two Sergeants per shift should be ordered to adjust unless a specific event necessitates it. • At least 14 days’ notice will normally be given, but in no event will less than seven days’ notice be given, for an ordered shift adjustment. • A Sergeant authorized to shift adjust will not suffer loss of briefing pay or other normal benefit. • Sergeants will be given at least ten hours between shifts for ordered non- emergency shift adjustments. • Shift adjustments will not be ordered to deal with court or shift continuation unless it is necessary to ensure the Sergeant has adequate rest. If court or another assignment prevents a Sergeant from getting proper rest between shifts, the Sergeant and the Watch Commander may arrange a shift adjustment to meet this need. With approval, the Sergeant could opt to use adjusted court time towards normal work hours instead of overtime, or to adjust shift start time up to four hours. In cases where the Watch Commander determines an adjustment is warranted but does not have sufficient staffing, s/he is authorized to bring in a replacement (on overtime) for up to four hours. • Shift adjustments will not be limited by day or time except as articulated above.
