SNOW EMERGENCY Clause Samples
The SNOW EMERGENCY clause establishes procedures and responsibilities in the event of significant snowfall or hazardous winter weather conditions. Typically, it outlines how parties should respond, such as suspending work, securing the site, or notifying relevant authorities, and may specify who bears the costs or risks associated with delays or damages caused by snow emergencies. This clause ensures safety, clarifies obligations during severe weather, and helps prevent disputes over delays or additional costs resulting from snow-related disruptions.

If an employee resides in a county where a level 3 snow emergency is declared before the employee’s normal departure time for work and the District is in session, that employee shall be excused from reporting to work.

SNOW EMERGENCY. The Township shall determine which men are qualified to drive snowplows and will list those determined to be qualified in seniority order. A copy of this list will be provided to the union. Individuals who are not qualified will be placed by seniority on the laborers list and allowed to have an opportunity for overtime and an opportunity to learn to drive a snowplow. If a snow emergency is declared by the Mayor or Chief Administrative Officer acting in the absence of the Mayor, individuals qualified to drive snowplows will be called utilizing the list described above. All employees called will be required to report. In a non-emergency snow removal situation, the same list will be utilized. An employee loses his place on this list if he is called and refuses to report in. In the event the employee is called and does not answer, he remains in his position for the next overtime opportunity. In the event there are insufficient employees who voluntarily report, the least senior employees will be required to report to work until sufficient numbers of employees have reported. An employee who accepts a non-emergency overtime assignment has one hour to report to work. Employees called to work during an emergency must report within one hour unless a specified time is designated.
