Employees shall be paid differential and premium pay in addition to the overtime compensation in accordance with applicable regulations. It is agreed that non-bargaining unit employees shall not be scheduled on overtime to perform the duties of bargaining unit employees for the sole purpose of eliminating the need to schedule bargaining unit employees for overtime. The Department shall make a reasonable effort to give the employee as much notice as possible when planned overtime is required, and further, will give due consideration to the employee’s personal circumstances. At the employee’s request, the Department will endeavor to avoid mandated overtime exceeding four hours at the end of the employee’s tour of duty. Those employees eligible by Title 5 or Title 38 can accrue and use compensatory time when approved by the Department. Eligible employees may request compensatory time off in lieu of premium pay for overtime work. The approving official will consider staffing needs in the decision whether to approve compensatory time. Supervisors shall not require the above mentioned employees to take compensatory time in lieu of overtime pay. Appropriate officials or their designees, may, at the request of a GS or FWS employee on a flexible schedule, grant compensatory time off in lieu of overtime pay, whether such overtime hours are regularly scheduled or irregular or occasional in nature. If the employee does not request compensatory time off in lieu of overtime pay, or if the employee’s request for compensatory time off in lieu of overtime pay is not granted, the employee shall be compensated for such overtime under the applicable statutory provisions. The Department shall, to the extent practicable, permit employees who earn compensatory time instead of overtime to use their compensatory time at the earliest time convenient to them within 26 pay periods. Normally, compensatory time off shall be granted before annual leave is approved. If annual leave would otherwise be forfeited, however, the annual leave shall be granted before compensatory time off. Any employee who is unable to use compensatory time within 26 pay periods shall receive overtime pay instead. Employees who are required to work overtime will be allowed to call at no cost to themselves...
