Article VIII <br />Compensatory <br />Time <br />1. All sworn Police Officers shall be eligible to accumulate and accrue compensatory time <br />at a rate of time and one-half the hours actually worked, up to a maximum of 40 hours. <br />All compensatory time provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act shall be adhered to by <br />the City of La Porte and the Police Officers covered under this agreement. <br /> <br />2. As with other forms of leave, compensatory time may be accrued and taken only after <br />the employee submits a written request and receives approval by his or her immediate <br />supervisor. Compensatory time off shall be granted at the sole discretion of the <br />Department, and will not be granted if overtime is required to achieve minimum staffing <br />levels. The City may opt to pay employees for accrued compensatory time at any time. <br />20 <br /> <br />
