– Compensatory Time for Religious Observances. ‌ A. An employee whose personal religious beliefs require the abstention from work during certain periods of the work day or work week, may elect to engage in alternative work for time lost for meeting those religious requirements. To the extent that such modifications in work schedules do not interfere with the efficient accomplishment of the Agency’s mission, the Agency will afford the employee the opportunity to work compensatory time and will grant compensatory time off to an employee requesting such time off for religious observances. Such request to work compensatory time for religious observances will be requested in writing and in advance of the requested work period. B. The employee may work such compensatory time before or after the grant of compensatory time off. Compensatory time will be credited to an employee on an hour-to-hour basis or authorized fractions thereof (fifteen (15) minutes). C. The premium pay provisions for overtime work in Section 7.02 do not apply for compensatory time work performed by an employee for this purpose.
– Compensatory Time for Religious Observances. An employee may elect to work compensatory overtime for the purpose of taking time off without charge to leave or loss of pay when personal religious beliefs require that the employee abstain from work during certain periods of the workday or workweek. Any employee who elects to work compensatory overtime for this purpose may be granted (in lieu of overtime pay) an equal amount of compensatory time off (hour for hour) from his or her scheduled tour of duty.
