Ordered involuntary overtime which results in an employee working in excess of forty (40) hours in any calendar week shall be compensated in cash at time and one half (1-1/2 times).
For those employees whose normal work week is less than forty (40) hours, any such ordered involuntary overtime worked between the maximum of that work week and forty (40) hours in any calendar week, shall be compensated in cash at straight time (1x). For employees granted a shortened work day under Section 18 of Article V, compensatory time for work performed between thirty (30) and thirty-five (35) hours a week when such shortened schedule is in effect shall be granted at the rate of straight time (1 time), but such work shall not be considered overtime.
