Overtime During the Christmas Period

Regular Carriers (Des 71) — FLSA B

Types of Overtime

During the Christmas period, regular rural carriers are eligible for two types of overtime — FLSA overtime and Christmas overtime.

FLSA Overtime

FLSA overtime is paid at all times of the year, not just during the Christmas period. Regular rural carriers are paid FLSA overtime under two circumstances:

a. Hours worked in excess of 12 hours in a day. If a carrier works more than 12 hours in a day, the amount over 12 is entered in the Daily Overtime block on PS Form 1314.

b. Hours worked in excess of 56 in a week. These hours are calculated automatically when the total weekly work hours are greater than 56, no separate entries are required.

Christmas Overtime

Christmas Overtime is paid only during the designated Christmas period. Regular rural carriers are paid Christmas overtime under two circumstances:

a. Christmas Assistance — This is assistance provided by the regular carrier on his or her relief day. Christmas assistance work hours are entered in the Xmas Assist Work Hours block on PS Form 1314.

b. Hours worked in excess of the route’s evaluation — This is based on the total actual work hours for the week, not on individual days. For example, if a route has a daily evaluation of 9 hours and the regular carrier works 10 hours on 2 days, and 8 hours on the other 3 days, no overtime would be paid. Even though the carrier exceeded the daily evaluation on 2 days of the week, he or she did not exceed the weekly evaluation. The weekly evaluation is 45 hours; the carrier worked 44 hours. (See Handbook F-21, section 567, for overtime calculation when leave days are taken during the week and for routes with an evaluation of less than 40 hours.) These hours are calculated automatically, so no separate entries or calculations are required.

Overtime Rate

The overtime rate paid to regular (FLSA Code B) carriers is 150 percent of the carrier’s regular rate. The regular rate is determined by dividing the total compensation received for hours actually worked by the carrier since the beginning of the Guarantee Year (not including overtime), by the total number of hours worked since the beginning of the Guarantee Year (not including overtime). This overtime rate is used for both FLSA overtime and Christmas overtime.

Replacement Carriers

Replacement Carriers (Designations 70, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, and 79) are only entitled to FLSA overtime. For these employees, FLSA overtime is paid for hours worked in excess of 40 in a week.

Regular Carriers (Des 71) — FLSA A

Regular carriers whose FLSA code is A are paid for actual hours worked, not evaluated hours. They are paid overtime for hours in excess of 8 in a day or 40 in a week. For FLSA Code A carriers, enter hours in excess of 8 in a day to the Daily Overtime block on PS Form 1314. Hours in excess of 40 in a week are calculated automatically.

Auxiliary Route Carriers

Carriers serving any auxiliary route are compensated at the hourly rate for actual hours worked during Week 2 of PP 25-2018 and PP 26-2018. During this period, carriers are not paid the evaluation of the route. Overtime is paid only when the carrier exceeds 40 hours for the week.

Christmas Assistance

Christmas assistance is additional service provided on a rural route during the Christmas period. For regular carriers, Christmas assistance applies only to assistance given by the carrier, on his or her relief day, while a replacement carrier is assigned to work the full route. For replacement carriers, it applies to any assistance provided on a regular or auxiliary route during the Christmas period. Christmas assistance is reported in the Xmas Assist Work Hours block on PS Form 1314 (for regular carriers) or PS Form 1314-A (for replacement carriers).

Regular carriers can perform Christmas assistance only on their relief day. Therefore, only regular carriers assigned to J or K routes may report Christmas assistance. Regular carriers assigned to route types H or M cannot perform Christmas assistance because these route types do not have a relief day. Note: There are no provisions for paying a regular carrier for performing service on a Sunday, on an actual holiday, or other than on the assigned route. These situations must be avoided.

Examples of Christmas Assistance:

n A regular carrier comes in on his or her relief day and helps the replacement carrier case the route.

n A regular carrier comes in on his or her relief day and carries part of his or her regular route. (Replacement carrier is listed on PS Form 1314.)

n A replacement carrier carries part of a regular route due to heavy Christmas volume.

These are NOT examples of Christmas assistance:

n A regular carrier comes in on his or her relief day and cases and carries his or her regular route.

n A regular carrier works 2 hours beyond the daily evaluation of his or her regular route.

n A regular carrier performs any work while assigned to an H or M route.

Time Card Blocks Used During the Christmas Period

PS Form 1314 — FLSA Code B Regular Carriers

PS Form 1314 - FLSA Code B Regullar Carriers

1. Daily Overtime — For FLSA B carriers, this block is used ONLY to record when the carrier works more than 12.00 hours in a single day. (See Exhibit 4 for use of this block for FLSA Code A regular carriers. This block is not used for FLSA Code P.) Record the total amount of work hours in excess of 12 per day in this box. Include the amount of daily overtime in the Actual Weekly Hours block. For example, if the carrier works 10.00 hours each day, Monday through Wednesday, and works 12.50 on Thursday and 13.00 on Friday, the amount entered into the Daily Overtime block is 1.50 and the amount entered into the Actual Weekly Hours is 55.50. Do not enter a decimal point when entering work hours.

The Daily Overtime block is NOT used to record:

n Hours worked in excess of 56 in a week.

n Hours worked in excess of the route’s evaluation.

n Hours worked when the carrier works his or her relief day.

n Additional hours worked by the carrier after completing his or her route (except for those that are over 12 hours for the day).

2. Xmas Assist Work Hours — For FLSA Code B regular carriers, this block is used ONLY when the carrier comes in on his or her relief day to provide assistance, not to serve his or her full route. A relief carrier must be listed on PS Form 1314 as the replacement carrier for that day. Do NOT include the amount of Xmas Assist Work Hours in the Actual Weekly Hours block.

The Xmas Assist Work Hours block is NOT used to record:

n Hours worked in excess of 56 in a week.

n Hours worked in excess of the route’s evaluation.

n Hours worked when the carrier works his or her relief day and DACA Code R, 3, or 5 is entered on the PS Form 1314.

n Additional hours worked by the carrier after completing his or her route.

Work on Relief Days and Use of X Days

During the period from the beginning of the Guarantee Year (October 13, 2018), through the last day of the Christmas period (December 21, 2018) — which includes pay periods 22-2018, 23-2018, 24-2018, 25-2018, and 26-2018 — record relief days worked by regular rural carriers on PS Form 1314, as described below.

1. Carriers who work a relief day during this period and who are entitled to a future day off (X day) must be given that X day in the same pay period. Record DACA Code R or 3 on PS Form 1314 for the relief day that is worked, and DACA Code X on the day that is taken off. The Rural Time and Attendance Collection System (RTACS) will not accept any PS Form 1314 that contains a DACA Code 3 or DACA Code R without a corresponding DACA Code X.

2. Record DACA Code 5 on PS Form 1314 for the relief day that is worked if an X day is not taken in the same pay period that the relief day is worked, or if the carrier is on the relief day work list and selects the option for 150 percent compensation. When DACA Code 5 is entered, the carrier does not receive an X day.

3. Carriers may not use any X days that were earned in previous pay periods during this period. RTACS will not accept any PS Form 1314 that contains a DACA Code X without a corresponding DACA Code 3 or DACA Code R.

4. Carriers must have a sufficient balance of X days available in order to use an X day. Carriers with a negative X day balance cannot use any X days until the negative balance is erased.

Christmas Period Timekeeping Instructions

A. FLSA B Regular Rural Carriers

1. Work on Relief Day — Only regular carriers on J or K routes have an assigned relief day. Any work performed by a regular on his or her relief day must be reported in one of the following ways:

a. Regular carries entire route — If the carrier reports on the relief day and cases and carries the assigned route (as is done on a scheduled day), enter DACA Code R, 3, or 5 (as appropriate) on PS Form 1314 for that day. If the carrier is due an X day for working the relief day (e.g., DACA Code R or 3 is entered), this X day must be granted in the same pay period. If the X day is not granted within the same pay period, DACA Code 5 must be entered on PS Form 1314.

b. Christmas assistance — If a relief carrier serves the assigned route and the regular carrier provides assistance on the relief day, record the hours worked by the regular as Xmas Assist Work Hours. If additional Equipment Maintenance Allowance (EMA) is due for work performed on the relief day, enter the mileage traveled in whole miles in the Route Deviation block for the appropriate week.

B. FLSA Code A Regular Carriers

Regular carriers (FLSA Code A) are paid at the regular rate for all hours worked up to 8 per day and 40 per week, and at the overtime rate for all hours worked in excess of 8 per day or 40 per week. FLSA Code A employees are not entitled to any X days as they are paid for working the relief day.
