Overtime Policy

The College’s policy is to prohibit the use of overtime unless approved in advance by the appropriate Vice President. However, to avoid excessive overtime use, the following clarification of the College’s overtime policy has been adopted:

Overtime work by non-exempt hourly staff and student employees is prohibited unless approved in advance by the appropriate Vice President.

Vice Presidents may approve, in advance, up to twenty hours of overtime per week for a non-exempt employee.

Under extreme and/or emergency conditions, a non-exempt employee may be authorized to work more than twenty hours of overtime per week if approved in advance by the Vice President for Finance and Business. Such approval may only be granted when all other options are exhausted.

Due to safety and efficiency concerns, a non-exempt employee cannot be authorized to work more than forty hours of overtime per week.
