Such "overtime" worked i or compensatory time taken off shall not be recorded for attendance or pay- I roll purposes.

Ac such times when it is possible to do so, it is ex- pected that the affected person and his supervisor mutually will agree as to when compensatory time off will be caken. It is the stated purpose oi this policy to provide some periods of time for eligible employees to relax and become disassociated from the stresses of work and, in part, to offerrecognition for the demands of required but unrecorded "overtime".
