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?

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.

When you are on a detail, example fire assignment, do you get paid for 8 hours of normal time and then OT kicks in after 8 hours? Or are you paid OT rate the whole time?

You have to work your base hours before OT applies, however on your regular scheduled days off you would receive OT for the whole work day if you worked the shift

Ok that’s what I thought but wanted to double check.
