Any increase in the amount of insurance made possible by an increase in compensation shall take effect on the next succeeding policy anniversary, but no reduction in the amount of insurance shall be required on account of a reduction in compensation. Yearly gross compensation shall not include any overtime pay, and, in the case of hourly workers, shall be computed on the basis of scheduled required work hours. Fifty percent of the amount of any premium thereon shall be paid by the town. Any dividends or other refunds or rate credits shall inure to the benefit of the town and shall be applied to the cost of such insurance.
