This bill proposes updates to Arizona Revised Statutes section 23-392 regarding compensation for law enforcement and probation officers. It replaces the term "work week" with "workweek" and "two week" with "two-week" for clarity. Additionally, it clarifies that compensation for hours worked includes principal activities performed by the employee, while excluding non-compensable activities as defined by the Portal-to-Portal Act of 1947.
The bill also maintains the existing compensation structure for overtime, specifying that if federal law mandates overtime compensation, employees will receive one and one-half times their regular rate or compensatory time off. If federal law does not mandate overtime, employees will receive their regular pay or compensatory leave on an hour-for-hour basis. Furthermore, it preserves the ability for employers and employees to enter into agreements that may alter the provisions of this section.
