<br />21 <br /> <br />An employee, subject to the approval of the department head or their designee, may receive <br />compensable time off in lieu of overtime pay at the rate of one-and-one-half hours for each hour <br />worked. Accrued compensatory time may be used with the approval of the employee's supervisor <br />as long as it does not create an undue burden on the department. <br /> <br /> <br />C. The maximum accumulation of compensatory time shall be 80 hours. Any accrual over 80 hours <br />shall be paid as overtime. <br />D. The minimum break in service between two (2) work shifts of five (5) or more hours shall be <br />eight (8) hours. An employee may not be required to report back to work until an eight (8) hour <br />break in service has occurred. To compensate the employee during the break in service, time that <br />falls within the next shift that is not worked (to provide an eight (8) hour break in service) will be <br />paid at regular time. The end of the employee's shift will remain that of their regular day. If the <br />City requires the employee to report before an eight (8) hour gap has occurred, the period of time <br />which would have allowed an eight (8) hour gap will be paid at overtime. For example, an <br />employee who only received five (5) consecutive hours of break in service would be paid <br />overtime for three (3) hours during the following shift, if an eight (8) hour break has not occurred. <br /> <br />Provided, that in no circumstance will an employee receive more than 1-1/2 times the regular <br />salary. Provided that, in accordance with 29 CFR § 785.22 both parties agree to exclude eight (8) <br />hours of each twenty-four (24) hour period for Parks personnel who are assigned to participate in <br />overnight recreational outings. <br /> <br />E. All work performed in excess of eight (8) hours (or in excess of the employee’s shift if the regular <br />shift is greater than eight (8) hours in any work day) or forty (40) hours in any given work week <br />for part-time employees. <br /> <br />F. Employees shall be moved to the bottom of the eligibility list for overtime duty in the same work <br />day where sick leave has been utilized for more than four (4) hours. <br /> <br />G. The hourly rate for each classified position shall be determined by dividing the annual salary by <br />the actual number of working hours for any given calendar year. <br /> <br />Section 4: Travel to Alternative Work Site <br /> <br />Employees required to perform work away from their normal assigned work site shall travel to and from <br />the work site on the City's time. Transportation shall be provided by the City, if available. If the <br />employee provides their own transportation, the employee will be reimbursed for the miles traveled in <br />accordance with the City’s travel policy and procedures. <br /> <br />Section 5: Alternate Shifts <br /> <br />Work weeks other than that referenced in Article 8, Section 2 may be mutually agreed upon between the <br />City and the Union, provided it is by an 80 percent majority vote of those employees affected by this <br />change and that a two-week notice will be given to the Union prior to implementation. The 80 percent <br />majority vote will be binding upon all affected employees of such department. In workgroups of four or <br />fewer, a simple majority of affected employees is required to approve the change. Upon receipt of any <br />written proposal for alternate work hours from the Union, the Department Head or designee shall give a <br />written response within 10 working days, citing specific reasons for accepting or rejecting the Union
