The case worker assists <br />the employee in getting proper medical treatment and ultimately returning to work. <br />Specific information pertaining to procedures are available from the Human Resources <br />Department. <br /> <br />Section 2.07 Flex Time Leave <br /> <br />The Flex Time Policy is an attempt to establish a consistent method of tracking regularly <br />scheduled work hours and additional non-regularly scheduled work hours which apply to <br />exempt status employees. <br /> <br />Flex time may be earned and accrued, one (1) hour for each extra hour worked over a 40 <br />hour work week. Flex time should be used within a reasonable period from when it was <br />earned; preferably during the same week. Employees may use up to 40 hours per pay <br />period of their accrued Flex time with prior Supervisor approval. Recording of Flex time <br />should be accurately maintained by each employee. <br /> <br />Accrued Flex time balances for exempt employees will be reduced to 100 hours on <br />December 31 of each calendar year. Upon an employee’s termination from the City, there <br />will be no pay-out of Flex time accruals, either partial or total. <br />
