EMPLOYEE LEAVE DURING
CALIFORNIA'S DEVASTATING FIRES |
This
communication is to clarify campus
procedures for employee leave applicable
to the periods of disruption caused
by the California fires:
Employees who
elect not to report to work
during this fire period must
use accrued vacation, personal
leave or CTO as appropriate.
An employee who
is unable to report to work because
his/her home was destroyed or
severely damaged by fire shall
be granted three consecutive
days of administrative leave
with pay. If an impacted
employee needs additional time,
administrators are encouraged
to work with the employee to
schedule vacation, as needed.
The campus will
continue to monitor air quality
conditions in our immediate
area and will notify the campus
community should the conditions
exceed thresholds requiring
outdoor physical activity to
be discontinued.
These actions are consistent
with our existing collective
bargaining agreements and university
policy.
Questions regarding these procedures
may be directed to Tom Angell,
Director of Staff Personnel,
or Sandi Gunderson, Director
of Payroll and Benefit Services.
