Corr, Chief of Police <br />GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS AND GUIDELINES <br />Time Management is the Lexington Police Department’s program for administering and <br />managing leave and other compensation. The tabulation of these benefits is <br />automated through the Department’s central computer system. Each employee has <br />access to view their benefits available there at any time. Supervisors have the ability <br />to adjust these as needed. Without sufficient departmental knowledge, terms and <br />abbreviations used in this policy may be foreign to the reader. <br />All Department employees, including exempt employees and those represented by <br />collective bargaining units are served by the Town’s employee benefits program. The <br />collective bargaining agreements between the Town and various collective bargaining <br />units and other town benefits programs are similar in many ways but are sufficiently <br />unique that they may cause some confusion. The Department’s procedures for Time <br />Management have also evolved and can be difficult to understand if not used regularly. <br />The purpose of this policy is to provide one uniform document that addresses the <br />majority of the Time Management issues. It should be noted that Commanding <br />Officers are authorized to manage routine requests for leave. Extraordinary requests <br />for leave should be forwarded to the Captain of Administration for review before leave <br />is granted. <br />This policy is a guideline. Collective Bargaining Agreements take precedent <br />over any conflicting language that may appear in this policy. <br />At times, different unions have different agreements or procedures. Text boxes like this <br />will be used to identify exceptions or special circumstances. All previous General Orders, <br />Personnel Orders and Memorandum related to the administration of Time Management are null <br />and void or have been incorporated into this policy statement.
