The CalHR 183 form is an official California state document that establishes an alternative workweek schedule between an employer and an eligible employee. It replaces the standard 5-day, 8-hour work schedule with a compressed arrangement that both parties agree to and sign. The document also specifies how overtime hours are calculated under the new schedule.
California labor law allows two main alternative workweek configurations for state employees:
Employees on an approved alternative schedule do not earn daily overtime for hours within their agreed-upon shift. Overtime pay at 1.5x applies to hours beyond the approved schedule in a workweek. Double time (2x) applies to any hours worked over 12 in a single day. These rules follow California Labor Code requirements and differ from federal FLSA rules.
The completed form requires signatures from the employee, direct supervisor, division chief, and personnel officer. Once signed, the document becomes part of the employee's official personnel file.
