Request for Reconsideration of Denial of Claims for Overtime Compensation

Fifteen former General Services Administration (GSA) guards requested reconsideration of prior GAO decisions denying their claims for overtime compensation for preshift and postshift duties. The prior decisions were sustained since the guards did not show that they were "induced" to perform overtime by an authorized official. Transfer of guardsto another agency did not obligate GSA to pay overtime unless approved by proper official and duties were more than de minimus.
