Is it legal to offer employees a voluntary program in lieu of overtime pay?

meee asked:

I have been trying to find this on the DOL website for a while with no luck.

Could a company offer a voluntary program to their employees where for each hour of overtime worked in a pay period the employee could opt to have it put in as paid time off (ie extra vacation and sick days), in lieu of paying the overtime?

I understand that to force an employee to do this would violate the law, however as part of a voluntary program, would it be considered acceptable?

Overtime pay?

hil306 asked:

I am a corrections officer for the state of Texas and we have to work 240 hours of overtime without getting overtime pay. Once we complete the 240 hours then the state must pay us any overtime after that. What constitutes this to take affect, and how long can the state keep this in effect? there are a lot of correction officers that have completed their 240 hours and they are kept from working overtime even though it is greatly needed and on a voluntarily basis. Is the agency using loopholes?
