Employees required to work by the City after their scheduled work has concluded will receive a minimum of two hours of straight time pay for such work. 6.6 Exempt(non-overtime-eligible) Employee: Exempt employees are expected to work the hours necessary to meet the perFormance expectations outlined by their supervisors. Generally, to meet these expectations, and for reasons of public accountancy, an exempt employee will need to work 40 or more hours per week. Exempt employees do not receive e�ctra pay for the hours worked over 40 in one workweek. The normal business hours for exempt employees are determined based on the needs of their respective department or division as approved by their supervisor. Exempt employees are generally expected to be available to the public during their normal business hours. If an exempt employee works extra hours due to unique circumstances, he or she may adjust their working hours during the same work week or immediately succeeding work week if operationally feasible to do so. Any adjustment to working hours must be approved by the employee's department head or designee and shall not be on a one-for-one basis nor may it be accumulated. Exempt employees are paid on a salary basis. This means they receive a predetermined amount of pay each pay period and are not paid by the hour. Their pay does not vary based on the quality or quantity of work perFormed, and they receive their full weekly salary for any week in which any work is perFormed. Exempt employees are not eligible for overtime pay or compensatory time for any reason.
