Board narrows compensatory time to Public Works, renames vacation to 'personal time'
Summary
Trustees moved to limit compensatory time accrual to Public Works employees only, adopt a 1.5x accrual rate with a 40-hour cap (carryover allowed but no additional accrual over 40), and allow personal time to be used in one-hour increments; the policy changes will be on the May 4 agenda.
The Board debated overtime and leave policy language and agreed to restrict compensatory time accrual to Public Works employees only. The minutes record the adopted language: overtime is paid in the payroll period it is earned; compensatory time may be earned at one-and-one-half times in lieu of cash; employees may accrue up to 40 hours of compensatory time during a fiscal year and use only 40 hours in a fiscal year; the 40 hours may be carried to the next fiscal year but no additional hours may be accrued above 40.
Trustees also changed the label 'vacation time' to 'personal time' and permitted personal time to be taken in one-hour increments. The changes were placed on the May 4 agenda for formal approval.
