SECTION 4

HOURS OF WORK AND OVERTIME

Section 4.1 Standard Hours: The standard work week for the staff of the NCRPC is as follows:

40 hours: 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Monday through Friday

The Executive Director may set other hours of work if he deems such hours necessary or desirable.

Section 4.2 Schedule Change: The Executive Director may at his discretion establish special standard hours for the staff for specified periods. In the interest of equity and uniformity, however, such special standard hours shall conform with the following provision:

1. The standard hours that are established for regular employees shall total 40 hours a week. (Temporary and part-time employees may have standard hours of fewer than 36 hours a week.)

Section 4.3 Overtime: Professional and supervisory employees should expect to carry out assignments that may involve working at times other than standard work hours. Normally, additional pay shall not be granted for overtime work for this class of employee; instead compensatory time off may be granted for overtime work by the Executive Director to all professional and supervisory employees on an hourly basis and in accordance with the following provisions:

1. Compensatory time off normally shall be granted within 30 days from the accrual date.

2. In certain situations, where required by law, the Executive Director may ascertain it is necessary for the agency to pay overtime for personnel other than professional and supervisory employees required to work in excess of 40 hours per week. In these situations, the Executive Director may, with Executive Committee approval, authorize payment to an employee for overtime hours worked at a rate of pay that is computed to be one and one-half times the hourly rate during normal working hours at the time the overtime work was performed.
