Can an employee receive call back pay in the same pay period as a furlough leave?
Not unless an exception is approved in advance by the Department of Personnel and the Department of Administration. If the call back occurs in the same pay week as furlough leave, the call back time (2 hrs.) can be recorded without reversing any unpaid furlough leave time; any additional hours worked beyond the 2 hours call back pay must be offset against the unpaid furlough leave time, e.g., unpaid furlough leave reversed out. The employee is not eligible for time and one-half on these additional hours until the employee is otherwise eligible for overtime in accordance with NAC 284.242 and 284.245. Example 1: An employee is called back on his furlough day to work in accordance with NAC 284.214 and the employee works 1 hour. Call back pay requires payment for the first 2 hours at time and one-half. So 2 hours are coded as call back pay and there is no reduction in the furlough leave time. Example 2: An employee furloughed on Monday 8 hours. He worked 8 hours on the following 4 days equ
