(1) The state personnel
director shall establish the general criteria and processes necessary for the state
personnel system to fully comply with all applicable federal employment laws.
Holidays and periods of authorized paid leave falling within a regularly scheduled
workweek shall be counted as work time in determining overtime for employees
performing essential law enforcement, highway maintenance, and other support
services directly necessary for the health, safety, and welfare of patients, residents,
and inmates of state institutions or state facilities.

(2) The state personnel director may establish an internal review process of
alleged violations of such federal laws. Such a review shall be conducted in
summary fashion on the basis of written material. Except as otherwise provided in
subsection (3) of this section, the state personnel director shall issue a written
decision within ninety days after receipt of the written complaint. Any aggrieved
party may also seek judicial review as specified by the applicable law.

(3) When an employee who has sought a review with the state personnel
director pursuant to subsection (2) of this section also files an appeal with the state
personnel board pursuant to section 24-50-123 or the Colorado civil rights division
pursuant to section 24-50-125.3, the ninety-day period specified in subsection (2) of
this section shall be tolled until there is a final agency action by the board only if
the appeal filed with the board or the civil rights division arises out of the same
incident as the review sought with the director, is filed before the expiration of the
