In Ohio, Senate Bill 26 would give private sector employers the option to offer, and employees the option to accrue, compensatory time off, at a rate of at least 1.5 times their normal compensation rate, instead of monetary pay for overtime. Employees who agree to this arrangement must do so in a written statement that the employer must keep on file. The bill also gives employers the option to establish biweekly work schedule programs allowing employees to work 80 hours in any 2 consecutive workweeks. Until now, the law required overtime compensation only for work over 40 hours in one week. The new biweekly standard would give employers more flexibility in their scheduling. The bill is currently before the Senate Committee on Insurance, Commerce, and Labor.
