2006 Ohio Revised Code - 4111.03. Overtime.
(A) An employer shall pay an employee for overtime at a wage rate of one and one-half times the employee's wage rate for hours worked in excess of forty hours in one workweek, in the manner and methods provided in and subject to the exemptions of section 7 and section 13 of the "Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938," 52 Stat. 1060, 29 U.S.C.A. 207, 213, as amended.
Any employee employed in agriculture shall not be covered by the overtime provision of this section.
(B) For the purposes of this section, the number of hours worked by a county employee in any one workweek shall be deemed to include, in addition to hours actually worked, all periods in an active pay status.
(C) If a county employee elects to take compensatory time off in lieu of overtime pay, for any overtime worked, such compensatory time may be granted by the employee's administrative superior, on a time and one-half basis, at a time mutually convenient to the employee and the administrative superior within one hundred eighty days after the overtime is worked.
(D) A county appointing authority with the exception of the county department of job and family services may, by rule or resolution as is appropriate, indicate the authority's intention not to be bound by division (B) or (C) of this section, and to adopt a different policy for the calculation and payment of overtime that is embodied in those divisions. Upon adoption, the alternative policy prevails. Prior to the adoption of an alternative overtime policy, the county appointing authority with the exception of the county department of job and family services shall give a written notice of the alternative policy to each employee at least ten days prior to the effective date of the policy.
