[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 07-02-08 AT 07:48AM (CST)[/font][br][br]Would anyone be able to provide some guidelines or benchmarks they may have utilized either formally or informally with respect to compensating Exempt employees for working above/beyond their normal scope of duty?

I am attempting to quantify and create some resemblence of a reimbursement policy/procedure that would compensate Exempt/Mgt staff for extra time put in above and beyond their normal scope of duty. Within the past three weeks, MGT staff has worked in excess of their normal working hours to plan, direct /manage flood water clean up, demo and restoration projects. Interestingly, our insurance adjuster suggested that we could submit extra compensation to our claim.

In the past, we have provided a bonus structure for staff who assume temporary additional duties when covering for another staff member. Due to these unusual circumstances, I would like to see if anyone has encountered any similar circumstances or policy that is used to help with additional compensation. In advance, thanks for any assistance and if you were affected with the flood waters, good luck with your clean up and revitalizing efforts.

We provide exempt employees with 80 hours of administrative leave each fiscal year. With prior employers, managers had the option of awarding special leave with pay (within specified limits) to recognize employees who have put in an extraordinary amount of overtime.
