Overtime / Compensatory Time Policy

An Overtime / Compensatory Time Policy is a set of guidelines that employers use to manage overtime and compensatory time for non-exempt employees. The policy typically includes information about when overtime is required, how it is calculated, and how compensatory time may be used in lieu of overtime pay. The policy also outlines any restrictions or limitations on overtime and compensatory time, such as maximum hours or approval requirements. The policy helps ensure that employees are compensated fairly and that employers comply with federal and state laws related to overtime and compensatory time.
