  1. When Alternate Work Schedule employees (includes exempt employees in Units 2, 5, 6, 7, & 9) do not get a holiday because the holiday occurs on their normal day off, they will receive hours equaling an additional day off (ADO) credit. Departmental time keepers will record these hours on the timekeeping system with the time reporting code of "ADO".
  2. For Unit 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 exempt and non-exempt employees, the number of hours that an employee earns as ADO shall be determined by the hours the employee would normally work.
  3. For Unit 1, 3 or 4 employees, the number of hours an employee earns as ADO shall be 8 hours.
  4. If a Unit 2, 5, 6, 7, or 9 non exempt employee is scheduled to work a holiday, and opts to work the holiday, they will be compensated with overtime pay (OT). In this circumstance, the employee:
