WCPS Employee Handbook 2023-2024

If the employee does not request to use his/her comp time and/or the supervisor does not schedule the comp time prior to June 30 of each year, the comp time shall convert to salary and will appear in the employee’s next available check. Any call-in on a weekend, night, or holiday will be compensated a rate of one and one half (1½) times their normal rate for a minimum of two (2) hours. This shall apply to emergency calls, calls for alarms and/or break-ins. Any employee who is scheduled for an approved leave day and is called back to work shall have the right to refuse the call-in without reprisal. If the employee is available, and reports to work for any part of a day, he/she will receive credit for another entire day’s leave. In some cases, on-call schedules are developed to cover facilities during extended periods of non-use (holiday breaks, summer, etc.). Such schedules are necessary to cover emergencies or issues when facilities are largely left unattended. Leave requests during this period are taken on a "first-come/first-serve” basis. Such requests will be considered when developing the on-call schedules, provided the employee has provided leave request in advance. If an employee is assigned to be "on-call" for a day, or series of days during such periods, then that employee will be provided two hours compensatory time (comp time) for each day he commits to being "available" on-call. In addition, the employee is compensated for any actual hours worked in accordance with (Classified) Article 10 Salary. Deductions for Time Lost Statement Salary deductions for lost time are made at your hourly, daily, or salary rates amount of time lost for leave beyond accumulated paid days. A salary deductionwill be made for any teacher who has an unapproved absence from school on scheduled workdays when pupils are not present. Income Tax Statement Federal and State tax laws require the employer to withhold from an employee’s salary an amount specified in accordance with place of residence and number of exemptions claimed on the employee’s withholding forms. The Finance Office will send each employee a statement of the amount of taxes withheld during the previous year (W2 form) by January 31. Requests for duplicate copies of your W2 must be made using the “Request for Duplicate Form W-2" form available from the Payroll department. Each duplicate copy requested will cost the employee $10.00. Electronic copies are available on Employee Online. Section 2, POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
