 Administration:

The computation of benefits is the same for employees with a flexible work schedule as for those working a standard schedule. Departments must ensure each non-exempt (paid hourly and eligible for over-time) employee in a flexible work schedule arrangement records total hours worked each day and documents exceptions to the normal work day (such as approved overtime, vacation, or other absences) in Workday. A flexible work schedule does not limit the hours that an exempt employee must work to complete job requirements.

Flexible Work Schedules at 91AV will not be permitted during the weeks of scheduled holidays. All employees with an approved Flexible Work Schedule must maintain a 40-hour work week during the week of a scheduled holiday.
