NY Post ^ | 11/22/2025 | Rich Calder Posted on by DFG The NYPD shelled out nearly $1. 1 billion on overtime last fiscal year the most of any city agency, but still nearly 14% less than the prior 12 months, The Post has learned. Cops and non-uniformed NYPD staffers pocketed a combined $1, 087, 616, 025 in OT for the fiscal year ending June 30 including a jaw-dropping 55 captains, lieutenants, detectives and other staffers who each raked in more than $100, 000 in OT beyond their actual salaries, an analysis of newly released payroll records. Leading the way was now-retired Lt. John Tancredi, who racked up 1, 256 extra hours worth $163, 681 bringing his total pay to $345,249. Lt. Christopher Cheng, a 27-year veteran, was second with $147, 758 in paid OT that’s 1, 122 extra hours worked bringing his total earnings to $340,249 with base pay and fringe benefits. Cheng, who works in Midtown’s Manhattan South precinct where cops routinely clock in extra hours monitoring protests, declined to comment through his union reps. Tancredi could not be reached. NYPD overtime spending which accounted for 18% of the agency’s $6 billion payroll wound up a whopping 59% over the $601. 9 million budgeted for fiscal 2025. Still, overall overtime dropped 13. 7% from $1, 259, 696, 367 the previous fiscal year after Mayor Eric Adams and newly appointed NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch laid out new rules in December aimed at cracking down on sky-high OT.
