§ 411.016. SUPPLEMENTAL PAY. (a) This section applies to
an officer commissioned by the department who is not employed in a
position that the director has declared to be administrative,
executive, or professional.
(b) If, during a calendar week, the total number of hours
worked by a commissioned officer plus the number of hours of leave
taken for which the officer is entitled to compensation, including
approved sick leave, vacation, holiday, holiday compensatory time,
emergency leave, administrative leave, and jury duty, equal more
than 40 hours, the excess is overtime. For each calendar month, the
overtime for each week ending during that month shall be totaled.
If the total overtime for the month exceeds eight hours, the officer
may receive, in addition to the officer's regular monthly salary, a
supplement determined as follows:
(1) a commissioned officer who accumulates more than
eight hours but less than 16 hours of overtime in a calendar month
may receive five percent of the officer's regular monthly salary;
(2) a commissioned officer who accumulated 16 or more
hours but less than 32 hours of overtime in a calendar month may
receive 10 percent of the officer's regular monthly salary; and
(3) a commissioned officer who accumulated 32 or more
hours of overtime in a calendar month may receive 15 percent of the
officer's regular monthly salary.
(c) The formula prescribed by Subsection (b) is the
exclusive method of computing state compensation for overtime
entitlements. This section applies only to the computation of
overtime entitlements and does not apply to the method of
compensating a commissioned officer for working on regularly
scheduled state holidays.
(d) A commissioned officer may receive a supplement paid by
the federal government earned while working on a project funded by
the federal government, and that supplement may not be considered
in determining a commissioned officer's entitlement under this
section.
(e) If the funds appropriated to the department to provide
supplemental pay are insufficient to pay all earned overtime
entitlements, the director may provide for compensatory time to be
taken during the biennium in which the entitlements are earned.
