Overtime (OT): UNM Policy 3305

• Supervisors should arrange non-exempt workloads so that an employee can complete his/her duties in a 40 hour work week. However, supervisors may require employees to work OT.

• Authorization is required from the supervisor before OT is worked.
• If the employee works unauthorized time, the University is still obligated to make payment of time including OT in accordance with FLSA.

• However, disciplinary action may be taken against the individual for creating this liability without obtaining prior supervisory approval.
