When an employer uses comp time instead of cash overtime, it may not allow employees to accrue more than 240 hours of comp time, 480 hours if the employee works in public safety or a seasonal activity. Once an employee accrues 240 or 480 hours, as the case may be, any additional overtime must be paid in cash. Employers must allow employees to use accrued comp time within a reasonable time of their making a request. Employers may send employees home or require them to use comp time before sick or vacation leave.

These essential nutrients help convert our food into fuel, allowing us to stay energized throughout the day.long with fellow B vitamins 12 and 9, B6 helps regulate levels of the amino acid homocysteine (associated with heart disease). Pyridoxine is a major player in mood and sleep patterns because it helps the body produce serotonin, melatonin and norepinephrine, a stress hormone.
B-7 (biotin) is used in sugar metabolism and used clinically to improve the health of hair. Doctors might recommend a B complex to help boost energy, help with depression and even help with sugar cravings. It is not a far stretch to assume B vitamins could help us feel better since they are needed for so many functions in the body. At times, one member of the B family may be more important than others. B-3 for cholesterol is one example.
