Prince George's County, Md., Code § 16-112 (2026)

All employees shall be required to attend work regularly, to be punctual in reporting for duty at the prescribed time, and to work the number of hours prescribed in their standard work weeks, where applicable, unless absent on authorized and approved leave. All appointing authorities and supervisors shall be responsible for the proper attendance of employees under their jurisdiction.

### Sec. 16-113. Standard work week or tours of duty

(a) All full-time employees shall be entitled and required to work those standard work weeks or tours of duty as are established under the applicable salary schedules within the Salary Plan.

(b) Nothing herein shall be construed to preclude the County Executive or the County Council from establishing, for employees under their respective jurisdictions, policies of productive work time based upon the completion of a specified number of tasks rather than total number of hours worked, provided that such policies are reasonable substitutions for the standard work weeks or tours of duty applicable to said employees.

### Sec. 16-114. Work schedules

Prince George's County, Md., Code § 16-114 (2026)

Work schedules shall be prescribed in writing by each appointing authority for all employees under the appointing authority's jurisdiction. The work schedules, as prescribed by appointing authorities in the Executive Branch, shall be approved by the County Executive or the County Executive's designee; and the work schedules, as prescribed by appointing authorities in the Legislative Branch, shall be approved by the County Council as a body or the County Council's designee. The foregoing shall not be construed to preclude the County Executive or the County Council, as the case may be, from approving work schedules based upon policies of flexible working hours, such policies being commonly referred to as "flex-time" or establishing alternative work site programs that allow work under defined standards.
