Offset from UTC

is there a way to get the offset of time from UTC in BrightScript? something similar to javascript getTimezoneOffset() http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/jsref_gettimezoneoffset.asp ?

dt = CreateObject ("roDateTime")
utcHours = dt.GetHours ()
dt.ToLocalTime ()
localHours = dt.GetHours ()
utcOffset = localHours - utcHours
