WICOMICO COUNTY PUBLIC SCHOOLS CONTRACTUAL EMPLOYEE’S GUIDE For non-exempt employees, this schedule includes an assigned lunch break. Employees may not work through their assigned lunch period or come in early or work past their assigned schedule for the purpose of accumulating compensatory time. Non-exempt employees may not work in excess of their scheduled hours per week without prior approval of their supervisor. Supervisors will make every effort to avoid circumstances that will require non-exempt employees to work more than 40 hours each week. The employee’s work-week starts on Sunday, 12:00am and runs through Saturday, 11:59pm. Supervisors have the responsibility for monitoring the accrual of such overtime which results in accumulated compensatory time. Current balances for unused sick leave, personal leave and annual leave and compensatory time (if eligible) are available for all employees electronically. Employees can view their leave balances, at their convenience, at their assigned KRONOS time and attendance device. Supervisors should likewise review leave balances before approving time off for their employees. Supervisors should communicate this timekeeping procedure clearly and apply it fairly to all employees. In cases where “non-exempt” employees are routinely working substantially more than their assigned scheduled hours each pay period, supervisors should consult with their appropriate Director to examine the employee’s workload and work efficiency and review their department’s overall staffing to ensure they are appropriate. All time and attendance records, including the lunch break tracking form must be retained for a period of five (5) years. Failure to comply with these procedures could result in disciplinary action up to and including termination. Workplace Injury To Report an Injury: 1. Injured worker notifies supervisor. 2.
