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