Religious Observations. The GME programs conform to the operating schedules of the participating hospitals, clinics and other teaching sites, and many of these operate 24 hours every day of the year. Trainees involved with GME programs may be scheduled to work during any time the clinical teaching sites are open. The residency programs will make attempts to accommodate religious observations for scheduling rotations and work assignments but can make no guarantees that such request will be granted. Requests will be evaluated on the following factors: ~ The request must represent a bona fide religious observance of a limited time duration of no more than one day at a time for most important religious observances. ~ Leave requests for single days off service must be requested 3 months in advance of the religious holiday. If multiple individuals request the same date, and clinical service responsibilities do not allow everyone to have this day off, it is understood that assignments will be rotated: an individual required to work a religious holiday during one academic year will be more likely to have leave granted the next year. ~ Requests for a longer period of religious accommodation (for example a request to be placed on elective rotation for a specific month) must be made prior to the time rotation schedules are finalized. The GME programs cannot guarantee that every request will be accommodated given educational and curriculum requirements of the residency program. Each program will attempt to be equitable in assignments over the entire training program. ~ Religious observances that include multiple consecutive days when the individual will be off work assignments will be treated like any leave request for vacation in accordance with sections 2 and 3 above. ~ Recurring day (or portion of day) off service must be discussed in advance with the program director (for example recurring Saturday or Sunday or portion thereof). The trainee should propose ways that he/she can cover other service assignments so that clinical coverage is equitable. The GME programs cannot guarantee that such recurring requests will be able to be accommodated.
