Overtime work will be paid at the rate specified by the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) following provisions applicable to the University. This policy applies to non-exempt employees regardless of title. Employees who work overtime without authorization must be paid for the hours worked or appropriate compensatory time provided. However, working unauthorized overtime may be cause for disciplinary action.
Overtime is all time worked by an employee for the University that is in excess of 40 hours in a workweek (or in excess of the FLSA approved standard for police and certain hospital employees). Hours worked in a workweek will include all time off with pay, excluding compensatory time taken, paid out accrued vacation, and paid out compensatory time. In no case will premium pay and overtime pay be pyramided or duplicated. The overtime rate will be one-half of the employee's regular straight time wage rate, plus the value of University paid meals, pay differentials, incentives and other forms of compensation earned during the period when overtime is worked.
