What are the rules about the number of overtime hours a supervisor may require me to work?
During a severe flu outbreak, an employee may be required to work overtime to provide coverage to continue City services to customers, especially during high absenteeism. No statutory/regulatory or labor contract limitations exist on the number of overtime hours an employee may work. Supervisors in areas that do not typically require overtime are strongly encouraged to contact HR to discuss options for work coverage and guidance on overtime use. Working long hours may become a safety issue.
