Balancing Hours. It is recognized that exempt employees are responsible for managing and accounting for their own hours of work and that they may work hours in excess of the normal work day and/or payroll period. In these instances and with supervisory approval, employees may balance hours of work in subsequent work days or payroll periods, provided such time management system does not result in overtime payment or guarantee hour for hour time off for extra hours worked.
Balancing Hours. Each covered employee shall have a CTO bank for overtime accrued during regularly scheduled shift assignments. Under this Agreement, individuals will work 48 hours per week and then 36 hours per week on their regularly scheduled shifts in a pay period. When working the 48-hour per week shift schedule, individuals shall have twelve (12) hours credited to their CTO bank for that pay period. When working the 36 hours per week shift schedule, four (4) hours CTO will be deducted from the CTO Bank and added to that week’s hours to ensure pay for a 40-hour workweek. Excess CTO in the CTO Bank shall be available for employee use/cash out as outlined in the MOU. CTO bank balancing hours shall be the only hours used to balance the work hours in the 36 hour scheduled work week.
