Overtime, Compliance and Visibility: A Fireside Chat for Public Sector HR Leaders
Thursday, December 3, 2026 | 2:00pm - 3:00pm ET; 11:00am - 12:00pm PT
 
Public-sector HR leaders play a critical role in every overtime decision, from collective bargaining agreements and comp time to employee classifications and leave policies. When pay rules aren’t applied consistently, the result can be grievances, payroll corrections, audit findings, and diminished employee trust. Join experts from TCP, FourthSquare, and Oracle for a 60-minute fireside chat on how HR teams can reduce avoidable overtime without underpaying employees or creating labor-relations risk. Explore where timekeeping challenges begin, how public-sector organizations can address them, and how HR can align supervisors, payroll, and finance around consistent practices.
 

By the end of the session, participants will be able to:

  1. Identify common overtime and compliance gaps, including off-the-clock work and errors in regular-rate pay calculations.
  2. Apply strategies for consistently managing collective bargaining agreements, comp time rules, leave policies, timecard reviews, and exception approvals.
  3. Develop a practical 90-day roadmap to strengthen overtime controls, improve visibility into overtime drivers, and align HR, payroll, finance, and supervisors.
 
Bring your toughest questions. The fireside chat format encourages open discussion and gives attendees the opportunity to hear directly from experts. Following the session, attendees can schedule a complimentary 30-minute Overtime and Timekeeping Results Review to discuss their scorecard results and identify top priorities.

  • Align budget inputs across departments.

  • Model scenarios and evaluate tradeoffs.

  • Improve visibility into the assumptions behind budget decisions.
