Unusual Conditions. A. An employee, with the exception of those required to provide essential services, may be dismissed from duty, if the employee believes that an extreme temperature is affecting his/her health. The employee should report this to Management. B. Management may grant appropriate leave; or, in rare circumstances, administrative leave, to an employee when Management can reasonably conclude that the extremes of temperature have or will incapacitate an employee for duty or that the prevailing condition would adversely affect their health. Management will make a decision based upon the best available evidence. If conditions are serious enough as to actually prevent employees from working, they may be dismissed as a group and placed on appropriate leave.
