Status:
Revised
The changes to this University Policy clarify which positions are deemed to be Essential Personnel for purposes of reporting during inclement weather and other unusual conditions. The changes also encourage department heads to provide food and shelter for Essential Personnel when they must report to campus in order to address problems previously faced by personnel who, due to weather, could not return home or retrieve food. The changes also address how employees who are paid on an hourly basis and who do not earn leave credit will be paid for periods when the University is closed or when the employee believes that travel is unsafe.
