January 3, 1995 <br /> <br />Change to the Policy of Granting Compensatory Time to Cabarms <br />County Employees Deemed as Exempt Under the Fair Labor Standards Act <br /> <br />Currently employees that are exempt under the Fair Labor Standards Act may be granted <br />compensatory time at the discretion of his or her supervisor (normally the department head). This <br />shall not exceed an hour-for-hour exchange for all hours worked over 40 in a normal work week, <br />or in the case of law enforcement personnel-171 hours in a 28 day work period. Since July 8, <br />1994, these employees have not been allowed to accumulate such compensatory time on an <br />unlimited basis. As of that date, no additional compensatory time has been accumulated when an <br />employee has a total of 40 or more hours. <br /> <br />Effective January 6, 1995, this limit on accumulated compensatory time will change to 80 hours. <br />Those employees having less than the 80 hour total may continue to be granted compensatory <br />time up to the 80 hour limit. Those with 80 or more hours cannot be granted additional hours <br />until their totals are reduced below the limit by usage. Time sheets should reflect the hours <br />actually worked, but the compensatory time section should be used following the above <br />guidelines. <br /> <br />Any compensatory time accumulated through the end of work on January 5, 1995, and in excess <br />of the 80 hour limit, should be used on the following schedule: <br /> <br />TOTAL TIME ACCRUED <br /> <br />REDUCE TO 80 HOUR TOTAL BY <br /> <br />80+ to 300hours 7/06/95 <br />300+ to 1500 hours 7/04/96 <br /> <br />As of July 5, 1996, compensatory time totals for exempt employees will be reduced to 80 hours <br />for those employees not already at the limit or below. <br /> <br />As before: <br /> <br />1. Granting of compensatory leave is not automatic and must be approved by the <br /> designated supervisor. <br /> <br />2. Exempt employees will not receive financial compensation in lieu of compensatory <br /> leave. <br /> <br />3. Accrued compensatory leave for such employees shall be forfeited at the termination <br /> of employment. <br /> <br />4. This policy is not intended to establish a maximum 40 hour work week for salaried <br /> exempt personnel. <br /> <br /> <br />
