1. Are employees permitted to claim paid time off based on their daily schedule even if it results in regular pay in excess of their weekly FTE?
Employees can voluntarily elect to limit how much paid time off they claim in a week where they have worked hours beyond their regular daily schedule. However, departments cannot require employees to claim less paid time off in order to limit the amount of regular pay in a work week.
Example:
| Mon | Tues | Wed | Thurs | Fri | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Regular work schedule | 8 hours | 8 hours | 8 hours | 8 hours | 8 hours | |
| Actual Hours Worked | Vacation | 9 hours | 9 hours | 9 hours | 9 hours | |
| Hours paid | 8 hours | 9 hours | 9 hours | 9 hours | 9 hours | Total = 44 hours regular pay |
