Accrual and Use of Compensatory Time Clause Samples

The "Accrual and Use of Compensatory Time" clause defines how employees earn and utilize compensatory time off in lieu of overtime pay. Typically, this clause outlines the conditions under which extra hours worked translate into compensatory time, the rate at which it accrues (such as hour-for-hour or time-and-a-half), and any limits on how much can be accumulated or when it must be used. Its core function is to provide a structured alternative to overtime compensation, ensuring both employer and employee have clear guidelines for managing extra work hours and time off.
