  1. Employee Designations and Work Assignments<\/strong>\n
      \n
    1. Mandatory Employees \u2013 Employees who are directed by their supervisor to report to work at a designated worksite other than their personal residence at specific dates and times.<\/li>\n
    2. \u201cHigh Risk\u201d Employees \u2013 Employees over 65 years of age; have underlying health conditions; or a weakened immune system. Employees providing care to someone at high risk are also considered high risk employees. High risk employees are allowed to telework or apply the provisions of this policy.<\/li>\n
    3. Non-Mandatory Employees \u2013 Employees who have not been directed by their supervisor to report to work onsite at any particular date and time. Non-mandatory employees will continue to be assigned work and will be expected to telework if feasible given the nature of their position\u2019s duties.<\/li>\n
    4. These designations may be changed at any time due to the operational needs of the College and COVID-19 developments.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n
    5. Paid State of Emergency Leave
      <\/strong>Consistent with usual work schedules for full and part-time employees, up to 96 hours of paid State of Emergency Leave may be granted during the period of March 16-31, 2020, and up to 168 hours of paid State of Emergency Leave may be granted during the period of April 1-30, 2020; whereas, no balance is carried over, for the following:\n
        \n
      1. Mandatory or non-mandatory employees who cannot work because they have childcare or eldercare needs due to COVID-19-related facility closings may receive paid State of Emergency Leave up to the maximum hours allowed.<\/li>\n
      2. Non-mandatory employees who are unable to telework who have not been authorized by their supervisor to continue to report to work will receive paid State of Emergency Leave up to the maximum hours allowed if they cannot telework because their position duties cannot be performed remotely and reasonable alternate remote work is not feasible or productive.<\/li>\n
      3. For part-time employees, paid State of Emergency Leave should be based upon the employee\u2019s average hours per week over the course of the previous 6-month time period contingent on the employee\u2019s employment as of March 1, 2020.<\/li>\n
      4. Any mandatory or non-mandatory employees who are sick due to symptoms consistent with COVID-19 or who are caring for a dependent with such symptoms will receive State of Emergency Leave up to the maximum hours allowed. All other medically related absences will utilize regular forms of leave such as sick, vacation, and bonus leave, or shared leave if previously approved.<\/li>\n
      5. Non-mandatory employees who were on other pre-approved leave, choose not to work, or are unavailable for reasons other than provided for in this State of Emergency Leave provision must use available and applicable leave types, such as vacation\/annual leave, paid parental leave, bonus leave, or compensatory time.<\/li>\n
      6. There are no special compensation provisions for mandatory employees to receive additional pay as of the date this State of Emergency Leave Policy is adopted.<\/li>\n
      7. In no case will paid State of Emergency Leave exceed 40 hours per week for full-time or 29 hours for part time. Compensatory time will not be earned during the State of Emergency.<\/li>\n
      8. Upon the discretion of the President, adjustments may be made to eliminate or discontinue the paid the State of Emergency Leave to any employee if the College has to pay another employee to complete the work as required, i.e. find a different adjunct instructor to finish a course.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n
      9. Additional Emergency Leave
        <\/strong>State of Emergency Leave is available for all employees who request leave because they experience the symptoms related to COVID-19, subject to the availability of funds. \u00a0These leave hours are separate and distinct from State of Emergency Leave detailed above. \u00a0These additional Emergency Leave hours are available effective March 10-March 15, 2020 or after April 30, 2020.<\/li>\n
      10. Delegation of Authority<\/strong>\n
          \n
        1. During the period of the State of Emergency declared by the Governor, the Board of Trustees hereby delegate full authority to the President or his\/her designee to take all actions to implement any and all paid and unpaid leave options available from any federal, state, or local source to keep employees in pay status and\/or covered by employment benefits, such as health insurance. This authority includes extending the amount of State of Emergency leave made available to employees under this policy and extending the period in which this policy is effective, to the extent funding allows.<\/li>\n
        2. The Board of Trustees may repeal this policy at any time.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
