Meals On Extended Overtime. (1) In cases of emergency or when otherwise necessary, when a full- time City employee is required to remain on duty after the close of the employee’s normal work day and the employee works overtime in excess of two (2) hours, the employee shall receive a meal period of thirty (30) minutes on the City’s time. Every four (4) hours thereafter until the overtime work is concluded, the employee working overtime shall receive a meal period of thirty (30)-minutes on the City’s time. The City will reimburse for meals eaten that were paid for by the employee during authorized meal periods during extended overtime. Receipts are not required; the City will rely on the individual’s integrity to claim what was actually spent up to $20.00 for the meal and tip. One half (1/2) hour meal period will be paid, either when employee eats, or it will be added to the overtime hours worked if paid meal period is not taken and worked instead. NOTE: if paid meal break is taken, the extra ½ hour paid meal time overtime will not be added to overtime hours worked. The employee cannot receive BOTH the reimbursed meal and the additional time for the meal break added to the overtime. The exception to the above is if the employee is told to go home at the point that the meal break would occur, then the employee is due the ½ hour add-on meal break plus he/she would be reimbursed for a meal that he/she decided to purchase at that time.
