M.V. ORDINANCE 91-54 Page 11 2. Compensation for Holidays not Worked. If not required to work on said holidays, a full-time employee shall be entitled to receive pay at his regular rate of compensation on such holiday on which he has not worked provided, however, that if any employee without just cause (as determined by the head of his department) fails to report to work on a regularly scheduled work day immediately preceding or immediately following such holiday, he shall not be entitled to compensation for the holiday not worked. If an employee's work schedule is other than Monday through Friday, he shall be entitled to a day's regular pay for a holiday observed on his day off, regardless of the day of the week on which it is observed. 3. Compensation for Holidays Worked. If a full-time employee works on one of the above-designated holidays, he shall be compensated at the rate of one and one-half (1-1/2) times his hourly rate for each hour worked and shall be given compensatory time off equal to the number of hours worked, with such compensatory time off to be first approved by the department head. (For example: A Class B Sergeant earning $11.72 per hour is required to work an 8 hour shift on Christmas Day. He would be compensated at the rate of $17.58 per hour for the 8 hour shift and would also be entitled to 8 hours compensatory time.) 4. Compensation for Holiday During Vacation. If a full-time employee is on vacation during one of the above-designated holidays, that 3ay shall be considered a holiday day off and shall not be counted or compensated as a vacation day. 5.
