Seattle Police Officer Ron Willis was exceptionally busy in 2019 — so much so that he crammed the work of two years into just one, reported the Seattle Times.
Willis, a 58-year-old patrol officer, made
$414,543.06 last year — more than the mayor, the police chief or any other city
employee. How? He was paid for 4,149 hours of work, not including vacation or
sick leave.
That total means he was paid for working an average
of 80 hours a week, about twice as many hours as a typical full-time employee.
Willis was paid for working between 90 and 123 hours a week for seven weeks
straight last summer, according to a Seattle Times analysis of SPD data.
On six occasions, Willis was compensated for more
than 24 hours in a single day, according to the data.
Under their contract, Seattle officers can be paid
for more hours than they physically work. SPD, however, couldn’t say whether
Willis physically worked all of these hours because it can’t effectively track
overtime that is still filed on paper forms.To read more CLICK HERE
