Requests for Compensatory Time Off. In the event that the granting of a request for compensatory time off creates one or more vacancies which bring the shift below the minimum staffing level or which otherwise needs to be filled, then the current practice will be utilized as follows: The supervisor will post the vacant slot(s) to be voluntarily back-filled with overtime. If one or more vacancies still exist then the supervisor will 1) assign personnel from the previous shift to hold over at the overtime rate, and/or 2) assign personnel from the following shift to report early at the overtime rate, and/or, in civilian work units, 3) assign personnel to work on their day(s) off. All employees shall be granted compensatory time off when submitted at least 72 hours in advance of the requested time off. If an employee makes a request for compensatory time off with less than 72 hours advance notice and this request does not bring the shift below one above minimum staffing, then the employee shall be granted the time off. If the granting of the request would bring the shift to minimum staffing then the granting of the request would be at the discretion of the Police Chief or his designee. Any comp time requests after an employee uses 120 hours in a calendar year will fall under the pre- existing single day vacation guidelines. Employees may take up to 80 hours of additional comp time only if the following criteria are met: • The comp time is selected 120 hours prior to the date to be taken. • The comp time does not cause the employee’s assigned shift to go below the minimum staffing requirements. • The comp time may be denied between 120 and 71 hours in advance of the date to be taken if staffing is projected to fall below minimum staffing requirements due to additional employees using sick leave, comp time or for specific department needs. • If there are schedule changes due to additional employees using sick leave, comp time or other causes between 70 hours and the date to be taken, the department will honor the employee's comp time leave request and allow the employee to use the comp time.
