Highlights

A National Park Service (NPS) employee claimed overtime compensation for travel on his day off, contending that he had to travel immediately to prepare for an uncontrollable fire emergency. GAO held that the claimant was entitled to the overtime, since NPS requested that the employee return to his official duty station on his day off to prepare for possible immediate dispatch to a fire. Accordingly, the claim was allowed.
