Emergencies or Disasters. Employees shall be granted leave with pay for instances when they are unable to report for their regular duties because of natural disasters beyond their control, because they are needed to work for the safety of their family or to prevent property damage, or because they are needed to help rescue operations to save life and property. Supervisors may grant leave under this paragraph only when the Board of County Commissioners, their designee or other government entity has determined that these conditions exist. This includes a State or County Department of Transportation or Law Enforcement agency closing a road that eliminates any safe route to work. If the decision is made to close a county work site after the employee arrives at work, they will be paid for the remainder of their shift.
