The Center agrees to continue the Leave Transfer Program Sample Clauses

The Center agrees to continue the Leave Transfer Program. SECTION 21.10 In lieu of using annual leave, sick leave or leave without pay, on a case by case basis and only upon formal approval in advance by the Center Director, an employee may work some or all of his/her official duty hours away from the traditional office work site for a specified time-limited period in order to accommodate a situation posing a severe personal hardship on the employee which would likely prevent the employee from continuing to work. Such an arrangement may be appropriate for varied reasons, including but not limited to recuperation of the employee or a dependent family member from major illness or injury, a personal or family crisis, or unusual home care requirements for a newborn or newly-adopted child. The alternate work site will usually be the employee's residence. An employee wishing to pursue a work at home arrangement must, in conjunction with the supervisor, define: a fixed work schedule which includes hours to be worked at home and hours to be worked at the traditional office site; tasks which can reasonably be performed by the employee at the home work site; methods for the supervisor to transmit to and receive assignments from the employee and to account for the time and attendance; any equipment or other services needed at the home work site; and the expected duration of the work at home arrangement. A request for a work at home arrangement should be submitted by the employee's supervisor through intervening levels of Management and the Director of, to the Office of Human Resources (OHR). The OHCM will provide a recommendation to the Center Director and, if approval is recommended, will also prepare the necessary documents to effect the work at home arrangement and forward them to the Center Director for signature.
