Occasional Schedule. Occasional telecommuting means an employee works off-site on an infrequent, one- time, or irregular basis. This option provides an ideal arrangement for employees who generally need to be in the office, but who sometimes have projects, assignments, or other circumstances that meet the eligibility criteria. Employees may be allowed to telecommute on a temporary basis as their duty assignment permits. Circumstances that may be appropriate for temporary telecommuting include, but are not limited to: ● Special project work which requires a period of uninterrupted time. ● While all reasonable commute routes are blocked (i.e., major construction, or environmental factors, such as a storm, or disaster). ● To accommodate other inabilities to be onsite that allow for work to be performed (i.e., broken leg, etc.). ● Primary worksite is inaccessible or uninhabitable due to emergency conditions. The supervisor and employee must identify dates, times, and reasons, which must be sent to the appropriate vice president or component administrator before the commencement of an occasional telecommuting schedule. An occasional schedule may be worked by a unit member one-time, not to exceed two (2) consecutive workweeks without the unit member completing the entire Telecommuting Agreement. A unit member must complete the Telecommuting Agreement in full before being eligible for another telecommuting assignment. Once the Telecommuting Agreement has been completed, an occasional schedule can be accommodated by updating the work schedule portion of the Telecommuting Agreement and only those other parts that need to be updated.
