Working for the city’s public hospitals provided very healthy payouts for 20 employees who pocketed nearly $2 million in overtime in 2013 — including a woman who more than tripled her base pay by working what she claimed was a 90-hour week.
Chantal Holmes, 44, logged a staggering 2,585 hours of overtime as an assistant coordinating manager at Jacobi Hospital in The Bronx, according to Health and Hospitals Corp. records provided to The Post in response to a freedom-of- information request.
Holmes — who works in the alcoholism unit — made $99,364.02 in overtime on top of a $48,757 base, for $148,121.02 in the fiscal year ended June 30.
At her Bronx apartment Sunday, Holmes declined to comment on her massive paycheck — or on how she was able to work what amounted to 13 hours a day, seven days a week for an entire year with no time off.
Holmes and 19 others collected $1.99 million in OT in fiscal 2013 from the cash-strapped, $6.7 billion HHC, which operates 11 hospitals, four nursing homes, 70 clinics and six diagnostic centers.
Holmes was joined on the top-20 list by overtime overachiever Michael Dinardo, who logged 1,756 extra hours as a senior stationary engineer at Coler-Goldwater Hospital on Roosevelt Island, records show.
Dinardo topped the HHC OT list, collecting an additional $147,581.92 and more than doubling his base $116,916.80 pay for a take of nearly $265,000.
Dinardo and Holmes are among a dozen HHC workers who more than doubled their paychecks.
Seven workers at Coler-Goldwater accounted for more than one-third, or about $780,000, of all HHC overtime in 2013. All of the money went to workers in plant operations there.
An HHC spokeswoman said most of the overtime was the result of Hurricane Sandy preparation or response, and some workers were paid at time and half or double time.
HHC workers in plant operations at Harlem, Coney Island, Elmhurst and Bellevue hospitals also scored huge OT payments.
