Workshop clarifies overtime accounting: overtime for hourly staff to be broken out, three staff considered salaried
Summary
Staff clarified that overtime will be tracked separately for hourly employees; only the Chief, Cindy, and Brandon are classified as salaried in payroll calculations, which affects overtime and benefit costs.
During the May 7 workshop, staff clarified payroll classification and overtime accounting. The draft budget breaks out overtime specifically for hourly employees; according to the meeting record, the Chief, Cindy and Brandon are treated as salaried employees for payroll purposes.
That classification affects how overtime, FICA and retirement costs are calculated in the budget model. Workshop participants discussed the need to ensure clarity in payroll lines so the public hearing on May 20 will show the budgetary treatment of overtime and salaried versus hourly positions.
