Call-in Procedure. When an employee is unable to report for work, or believes that he or she may be late to work, he or she shall, except for extenuating circumstances, notify his or her supervisor at least thirty (30) minutes prior to his or her scheduled start time by contacting his or her supervisor or by leaving a voice mail message. Supervisors for each work unit shall issue directives for implementing this section, which may not be more restrictive than this section. If there are mitigating circumstances that cause an employee to call-in later than thirty (30) minutes prior to their scheduled start time, the University will give due consideration to those circumstances in deciding whether any action is taken. Each employee will be responsible for communicating with the University regarding his or her work status. It is not permitted for family members or friends to call in for the employee unless the employee is hospitalized or totally incapacitated and unable to make the call. Emergency leave shall follow the call-in protocol as outlined in this section. All requests should include the type of leave being requested (e.g. emergency vacation, emergency comp time, emergency unpaid leave, etc.) The employee may be required to provide additional documentation to support the need for leave. Approvals of emergency leave will not be unreasonably denied. However, emergency leave will not be granted automatically upon request. Employees must speak to their supervisor prior to having the leave approved.
