Common use of Over/Underpayment Clause in Contracts

Over/Underpayment. It is the intent of the District to properly compensate employees. In cases of compensation error, the District will notify the employee prior to making the appropriate corrections. The District and the Association agree that in situations where a bargaining unit member has been paid incorrectly, the period of time to be considered for correction shall be one (1) year from the date of discovery. An underpayment shall be corrected on the next regular pay warrant. If an overpayment of $40 or less is made, it shall be corrected on the next regular pay warrant. When an overpayment of more than $40 is made, each pay warrant due to the employee through the remainder of the contract year shall be reduced by an equal amount such that the sum of deductions shall equal the overpayment. If an employee believes the reimbursement schedule will cause an undue hardship, the employer will work with the employee and the Association to determine a reasonable reimbursement schedule appropriate to the circumstances.
