Overtime Payment Plan Approved

The Fort Bend County Commissioners Court, Texas apprved a three-year plan to pay off more than $2 million to its employees.

The entire amount will be payed off by Jan.1, 2006. Employees now must take 80 hours of accrued compensatory time before utilizing their vacation time, and some employees will no longer receive some exceptions from current policy.

By law, many public sector employees must take vacation time to make up for the time-and-a-half extra pay instead of overtime payment . County employees may add up to 240 or 480 hours of this compensatory time.
