Synopsis
|
The record of this case established that Respondent interpreted a previous policy to mean that bus operators would be paid from their regular start time on occasions when school was delayed for inclement weather even though the bus operators were not working during these hours. The Respondent modified its overtime policy and removed the provision for the payment of these additional hours. A board of education may change a policy by presentation to its members and an affirmative vote to change the same as occurred in this case. In addition, a board of education has the responsibility to correct an employee’s pay when they are being paid improperly.
