Does this apply for government employers? For example, I’m scheduled to work 50 hours next week and 30 the following week, resulting in a 80 hour work week without overtime.

We work on a 10 hours day modified schedule, and plan on moving to a 12 hour work day next month. The 12 hour work day schedule would have us work 36 hours the first week and 48 hours the second week of a pay period. Resulting in only 4 hours of overtime/comp time.

I’m just curious if this is appropriate, or if I should consult our county auditors office for more information.

Thank you,
Jeremy
