Sample
Policies - Earned Days Off and Flexible Scheduling
These sample policies apply to
management and other exempt employees, and
provide an alternative middle of the spectrum
option compared to the no compensation
for additional days worked on the one
hand and earned days off for all extra
days worked on the other.
Earned Days Off - Exempt Employees
Exempt employees are paid a fixed
salary that is intended to cover all of the compensation
to which they are entitled. Because they are exempt,
such employees are not entitled to additional
compensation for extra hours of work or time off in lieu
of additional compensation.
Flexible Scheduling - Exempt
Employees
Exempt employees who wish to arrange
flexible scheduling shall work 40 or more hours within
the week being flexed to be eligible for flexible
scheduling, or have the prior approval of the Executive
Director (normal work week is 35 hours). Departments
with more than one person must have coverage by at least
one person during normal office hours, except in limited
or unforeseen circumstances.
- schedules must be arranged one week
in advance,
- must be approved by the staff
member's supervisor,
- schedule must be submitted to the
coordinator of the weekly staff schedule,
- abuse will result in loss of
ability to flex schedule, and
- staff are expected to be in the
office and working according to the schedule
distributed.
