Extreme Weather. The mission of the Columbia Fire Department is to provide excellent emergency services to its citizens and businesses 24 hours per day, 365 days per year. An essential component of the success of that mission is ensuring that Members and equipment are as prepared as reasonably possible for the challenges they will face. It is agreed that regular training and equipment testing and maintenance are necessary to ensure that all personnel and apparatus meet applicable standards, and that the Union will make every reasonable accommodation to ensure they are completed in a timely manner. It is further agreed that regular training, while important, is typically not so essential as to warrant exposing personnel to hazardous or inclement weather conditions that may render Members unnecessarily fatigued or infirmed, and thus less than optimally prepared to respond to emergency calls. For the purpose of this Agreement, inclement weather will be defined as the presence of any of the following: Wind Chill below 20 degrees Fahrenheit, Heat Index above 95 degrees Fahrenheit, extreme winds, rain, snow, sleet, or icy conditions. When said conditions exist, all training activities which require extended exposure of personnel to outside weather conditions and can reasonably be re-scheduled shall be halted.
Extreme Weather. In the case of severe weather, the start of any or all days of the event may be delayed and tournament hours lengthened or shortened at the tournament director’s discretion.

Activities related to teaching and research (including library and computer services), facilities support, housing, dining services and health and safety must continue as necessary on a seven day schedule. Because these services must be maintained, the University is always open. However, weather emergencies or other situations may result in the University delaying arrival time, or early dismissal of staff or areas being open with minimal staffing. As a result, it is important that all staff become familiar with the critical services and weather emergency policies; unit recall procedures and the process required for notification of staff. All Library employees shall be informed annually by their immediate supervisors of: • The provisions of the critical services and weather emergency policies • Unit recall and call-in procedures (and) • Minimal staffing requirements for their area Normally this will occur each year at the start of the fall term or within 30 calendar days of being hired.
