Personnel Policy Manual for Support Staff

SUBJECT: EMERGENCY CLOSING

POLICY STATEMENT:

It is Le Moyne College policy to keep the College operating on a regular basis, as established by our normal workweek. In the event of severe inclement weather, or other emergency conditions, it may become necessary to postpone the opening of offices or not open them at all that day. In such a case the following procedures will be observed:

IMPLEMENTATION:

1. An announcement will be made on local radio stations (WSYR, WHEN, and WSTM TV). Employees may also contact the College switchboard for information.

2. If the College offices are open, those employees who are unable to report may charge the absence to earned vacation or personal leave.

3. Employees reporting late due to adverse road conditions will not be docked for time lost, if approved by supervisors.
