1. Definition: Overtime is time worked by classified personnel in excess of forty (40) hours
per week or in excess of the regular work assignment.

2. If possible, overtime shall be pre-authorized in writing by the immediate supervisor. In

all instances, overtime will be authorized in writing within one working day of the
