904.1 PURPOSE AND SCOPE
904.2 POLICY
904.2.1 FOR POLICE AND MFD24 EMPLOYEES
The City has adopted the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act (F.L.S.A.) Section 207 (k) Exemption
with respect to the payment of compensation for qualifying police officers and MFD24 employees.
All MFD24 employees are on a 24-day, 192-hour schedule, with their base pay rate paid for the
first 192 hours worked and one-half (½) straight-time pay added to the base pay rate for hours
over 182 and up to 192. Over-time pay is added for hours worked over 192.
All non-exempt Police officers are on a 14-day, 80-hour schedule. Overtime pay is added for hours
worked over 80 hours in a 14 day work period.
Leave such as holidays, sick time and vacation time are excluded from the calculation of overtime
pay.
All non-exempt Police officers are on a 28-day, 160-hour schedule with base rate paid for the
first 160 hours worked and straight-time base rate added to the base rate for hours worked over
160 and up to 171. Overtime pay is added for hours worked over 171.
904.2.2 FOR MOST OTHERS
Most other employees are on the standard 40 hour per week pay period. These hours of work and
work periods are not the same as the semi-monthly pay period.
The normal work schedule for all employees working in non-safety departments and non-
emergency jobs or positions is eight hours a day, five days a week. This schedule is designed to
allow for 5 days of work in a normal 7-day week.
Water, Wastewater and Street Department employees are required to be on call from time to time
after normal business hours on weekdays and weekends. (See also 505 On-Call Compensatory
Time below.)
Supervisors will advise employees of the times their schedules will normally begin and end.
Staffing needs and operational demands may necessitate variations in starting and ending times,
as well as variations in the total hours that may be scheduled each day and week.
Employees who are exempt receive no over-time payments. (See the Employment Categories
policy)
904.3 ALTERNATE WORK SCHEDULES
Department Heads, with the approval of the Mayor, will have the option of instituting a non-
traditional work schedule if such is considered advantageous to that department. The City Council
