Compensatory time is paid time off at the rate of one and one-half hours off for each hour of overtime worked. For most employees the workweek begins at midnight on Monday and runs through the following Sunday night at 11:59 p.m. Supervisors may establish a different workweek based on the needs of the department, subject to the approval of the City Administrator. The employee's supervisor must approve overtime hours in advance. An employee who works overtime without prior approval may be subject to disciplinary action.

Employees may carry over any unused compensatory time from year-to-year, but only to the accrued maximum as allowed in 10.2.3 of these policies. All further overtime will be paid. Employees may request and use compensatory time off in the same manner as other leave requests. 12
