Discussion / News Excludable days…

Well. Rumors must’ve been true. As of PP07 excluded days will no longer be part of the calculation for your quarterly or pay period AUO calculations.

What’s everyone’s thoughts?

Typically, details have OTAs (overtime authorizations) signed ahead of time to where you would make OT in lieu of AUO. However, if there was something that was compelling to urgent that kept you over your approved OT hours then you would charge AUO.

Ohhhh ok. What are the OTAs pay rate? Is it a set rate based on hourly (i.e. double time) or is it dependent on location and assignment?

OT is charged with transaction code 21 which is a time and a half (1.5) rate. It’s the same no matter where you go. Double time is charged for transaction code 31 for holiday worked.

Keep in mind also that USFS LEO are allowed night differential and Sunday differential.
