2. Permanent and continuous employees not in prevailing rate groups will be excused with full pay. B. In the event that work is required 1. Employees in prevailing rate groups will be compensated in accordance with prevailing practice. 2. Other employees, except those in administrative classifications as approved by the Merit Board, will be compensated by time and one-half payable in cash, in addition to regular compensation. 3. Administrative employees in classifications approved by the Merit Board shall receive no additional compensation. II. Work Week A. Employees other than administrative 1. All employees other than those in administrative classifications as approved by the Merit Board shall have a basic work week of forty hours, except as stipulated in agreements, or in local prevailing practice, or general community patterns. a. Determination of the daily and weekly schedule within which these hours are to be worked is to be considered as subject to agreement between the individual institutions and their employees. B. In administrative classifications, it is understood that work will be performed as required by the position, but that insofar as possible the basic work week shall be forty hours. 1. Individual institutions may determine with the approval of the Merit Board the level at which the employee becomes an effective part of management and therefore at what level his classification becomes administrative for the purpose of this paragraph. C. Except in operations where services are regularly required seven days a week, work performed on Sunday is overtime, to be compensated in cash at the overtime rate of time and one-half, or as stipulated in agreements. III. Overtime Pay A. All time in excess of the units of hours constituting the work day or the work week is overtime and will be compensated as follows: 1. For employees in prevailing rate groups, overtime will be compensated at time and one-half, unless under local prevailing practice a higher rate is paid in which case the local prevailing practice will be followed. 2. For employees other than administrative not in prevailing rate groups, overtime will be compensated at time and one-half in cash. 3. For employees in administrative groups for whom no fixed and rigid daily or weekly schedule is provided and the discharge of whose duties normally requires a certain amount of flexibility in such schedule, additional cash payment may be authorized at straight time for overtime required and worked in amounts excessive beyond normal expectation of the work schedule of the position. B. Paid time in which work is not performed shall count as working time toward the accumulation of overtime in any work week. C. By mutual agreement between a department and an employee, with the approval of the Director, the employee may work overtime with equivalent time off at straight time (in lieu of cash payment), such time off to be taken at some mutually agreeable time; 1. Provided that this does not conflict with local prevailing practice. IV. Disability Leave with Full Pay A. Each employee shall accumulate disability leave with full pay at the rate of one working day for each month of service until total accumulation is forty-five working days. Amount of leave accumulated at the time when any disability begins shall be available in full and additional leave shall continue to be earned while an employee is using that already accumulated. After an employee has accumulated a total of forty-five working days his rate of accumulation shall be reduced to one work day for each two months of service. There shall be no limit in the amount which may be accumulated at this rate thereafter. If use of available leave thereafter reduces the total to less than forty-five days, the accumulation will again be at the rate of one day per month until a new total of forty-five days is reached.
