compensatory time is provided for hours worked in excess of forty (40) in a given work
week.
Non - exempt Employee: those employees included in the overtime provisions of FLSA.
Additional compensation or compensatory time off will be provided for hours worked
over forty (40) during the work week.

regular work week generally begins at midnight Sunday and ends at midnight the
following Sunday, although a regular work schedule is normally based on a Monday
through Friday week.
