PET OF THE WEEK Animal ID: 72318 Good Day – my name is Loki! I am a big handsome boy with stunning lime green eyes and I absolutely adore human companionship. My favorite thing is to sit on your lap and knead you with my front paws. I also enjoy being brushed while munching on my favorite treats – Temptations Chicken Treats! A few years ago I had some issues with using a litter box consistently, but have been fine since and enjoy being a house cat. I am now getting into my senior years which means I may require some extra care to keep me healthy, such as a dental cleaning. I’m sure to make a wonderful feline friend for someone though and, if you’re a senior like me, you can bring me home free of charge with EHS’ Senior for a Senior Program. I can’t wait to meet you at the shelter soon! Age: 10 Years

Zoey
Reference Number: 15786361
Hi there! I am Zoey! Yes I am THAT adorable in person! My last owner was moving, so I'm now looking for a new fur-ever home! All these changes are too stressful for me, so I'm having a little vacation with at a Foster home (Hi Foster Parents!) My Foster Parent says I am a calm girl, very tolerant with dogs and children. I am very shy and timid around new people, but once I warm up to you I am such a cuddle bug! LOL! This pretty hair doesn't take care of itself, so regular brushing and grooming is a must! I was previously declawed, so I will need to stay indoors - this means extra snuggles! My ideal home would be calm and quiet, with an experienced cat owner who will be patient with a timid kitty like me. :) Interested in meeting with me? Please contact the Adoption Crew at 403-205-4455 ext 6503 to set up a visit today! Love, Zoey

Working Wise Dear Working Wise: Business has picked up a bit and as a result I’m paying my staff a lot of overtime. Can I give my staff “time in lieu” instead of paying them for their overtime? Can I limit how much or how long can my staff keep their banked time? Signed, Overwhelmed by Overtime. Dear Overwhelmed: Yes, employers can replace overtime pay wholly or partially with paid time off through an overtime agreement. An overtime agreement allows overtime hours to be banked and later taken off with pay at the normal wage rate during regular work hours.

Do you have a work-related question? Send your questions to Working Wise, at charles.strachey@gov.ab.ca. Charles Strachey is a manager with Alberta Human Services. This column is provided for general information.
Overtime Agreements: • Alberta’s Employment Standards Code requires overtime agreements to be in writing. Employers must give employees who are covered by an overtime agreement a copy of the agreement. • Amendments to, or termination of, the agreement are not valid without at least one month’s written notice of the change from one party to the other. • The agreement can be between an employer and a single employee, with a group of employees, or the agreement can be part of a collective agreement. • For every hour of overtime worked, at least one hour must be banked. • Time off must be taken within three months of the end of the pay period in which the overtime was earned. • If banked time off is not taken off within three months, then it must be paid out at time-and-a-half. Employers cannot create a “use it or loose it” type rule for banked overtime. Overtime can not be lost or taken away, even if your overtime agreement says that it can. Employers must keep track of the banked overtime and how long it has been in the bank. However, the employer can tell the employee when to take their banked time off. Employers with special circumstances, e.g., seasonal industries, may apply to Employment Standards for a permit to extend the period of time that overtime can be banked by an additional three months. For most employees, overtime is all hours worked in excess of eight hours a day or 44 hours a week. Overtime is calculated both on a daily and weekly basis. The higher of the two numbers is overtime hours worked in the week. Some types of employees are exempt from the hours of work and overtime standards. Farm workers, domestic employees, salespeople, professionals, police, and managers are a few examples. For all other employees, overtime must be paid at the rate of at least 1.5 times their regular wage rate or covered through an overtime agreement.
