I. On-Call Pay

The primary goal of the City's on call policy is to compensate non-exempt employees
who are periodically required to be in a formal "on-call" status where they are not required to
remain on City property but are required to be available for contact by telephone or pager and
afforded at least an hour within which to report to work. Employees qualifying for on-call status
shall receive additional compensation at their regular rate of pay for four hours per on-call week.

Employees who qualify for on-call status will be compensated as follows:

1. Any time spent in actually responding to a call to return to duty (including commuting
time) will be considered work time and will be recorded and compensated as such.

2. Employees called back to duty for less than two hours duration will be compensated for
two work hours. Employees called back to duty for two or more work hours will be
compensated for the actual hours worked. All hours worked will be taken into
consideration when determining the applicability of FLSA overtime provisions.

3. No additional compensation, except as described in this section, is authorized for "On-
Call" or "Call-Back" situations.

4. In some cases, the normal type of rotational on-call arrangement anticipated by this
policy may not be feasible or possible. The department head and Human Resources
Director, in such cases, will work out an alternative compensation approach.

Exempt positions involving on-call or standby service in excess of regular work
schedules should be directed to the attention of the City Manager so that provisions may be made
for compensation for such service, where appropriate.

J. Payroll Time Sheets

For your convenience, payroll time sheets for all employees are provided at the beginning
of each pay period.

You will record the hours worked and the leave taken for each day of the week. Time
worked and leave time will be recorded to the nearest 10th of the hour and will be described by
the use of the codes listed below:

Code HCC Hours worked for Home Cost Center
Code A Authorized leave without pay
Code AS Authorized leave without pay/Suspension
Code C Call-Back
Code D Death in immediate family
