Classified employees: school police: workweek.

Existing law generally prescribes the workweek of a classified school employee to be 40 hours, and prescribes the workday to be 8 hours. Existing law also authorizes the governing board of a school district or a county superintendent of schools to establish a 9-hour-per-day, 80-hour-per-2-week work schedule, subject to the concurrence of the employee organization, or, absent an employee organization, subject to the concurrence of the affected employee. Existing law generally provides for the payment of overtime compensation for hours worked in excess of the required workday, except as specified. This bill would also authorize the governing board of a school district or a county superintendent of schools to establish a 12-hour-per-day, 80-hour-per-2-week work schedule for school police departments, provided the establishment of the work schedule is consented to in a valid collective bargaining agreement that contains specified provisions, including, among others, express provisions for the wages, hours of work, and working conditions of employees. The bill would require the payment of overtime compensation for hours worked in excess of the required workday, as specified, and would require the workweek to be defined so that no employee will be required to work more than 40 hours during any given workweek.
