<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">OSPS has added two new pay codes to several OSPA benefit packages. STS & STH which will fall under the ST leave accrual code. These should be used for FLSA exempt employees
who either work on a holiday or the holiday falls on the employees scheduled day off. These new pay codes are similar to the CTS and CTH pay codes that are used for FLSA non-exempt employees (overtime eligible).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">STS – Holiday Straight Time Accrual. STS would be used when a holiday falls on a FLSA exempt employee’s day off. For instance, if an employee’s work schedule is Tuesday thru
Saturday then the Monday Memorial Day will show as 8 STS. (If the employee was FLSA non-exempt then the pay code would be CTS.) STS accrues at one to one.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">STH – Holiday Time & ½ Accrual. STH would be used when an FLSA exempt employee works on a holiday. The holiday would still be recorded with 8 HO but the actual hours worked
would be coded to STH. STH accrues at one and one-half (1.5) hour to every one hour worked.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">These codes were added to help manage accrued time for FLSA exempt employees. Past practice for holiday time has been to use compensatory time (CT*) for both FLSA exempt and
non-exempt employees. CT carries as a financial liability for the agency until used or paid in full per FLSA. The ST* code for FLSA exempt employees is accrued leave that must be used within the fiscal year earned or will be lost.
