Summary

An internal email dated July 19, 2019 (during Epstein's incarceration and shortly before his first suicide attempt), instructing staff/schedulers to avoid hiring overtime prior to the start of the administrative workweek (Sunday). The directive aims to reduce costs by avoiding 'night differential' pay entitlements associated with 'Regularly Scheduled Overtime' for General Schedule (GS) employees.

Please be reminded that per policy and the T&A Handbook any employee hired for overtime prior to the administrative
workweek, is entitled to any applicable night differential in addition to the overtime pay. This results in a notable increase in
overtime costs. Therefor, unless otherwise unavoidable, the practice of hiring overtime prior to the administrative work week
should be avoided. Specifically, the administrative work week begins at 12:01 am Sunday, so if you hire overtime on
Saturday for the following Sunday or beyond, it is scheduled prior to the administrative workweek. The verbiage below is cut
and paste from the T&A Handbook, if you have further questions please contact me.
Regularly Scheduled Overtime. Overtime (over 8 in a day, over 40 in a week, or
over 80 in a pay period), which has been scheduled, both day(s) and hours,
prior to the administrative workweek for a specific employee. This overtime
must be scheduled before the Sunday of the week in which it was worked to be
considered "regularly scheduled." This is the only type of overtime that may
be subject to GS night differential, if worked between 6 P.M. and 6 A.M. It is
the only type of overtime (besides INS 1931 Act Overtime) that may be paid
to recipients of annual premium pay.
