FML 2.10 - Unscheduled Leave

Policy

It is important that an employee’s supervisor know when that employee cannot report to work as scheduled so that arrangements can be made to cover the absence.

Procedures

• If an employee will be unable to report to work, and has not previously scheduled leave, the employee must call his or her supervisor within thirty (30) minutes prior to the start of the work shift.  Telephone numbers for each shop are listed below.
• If no one is in the office to take the call, the employee must leave a voice mail message, clearly stating his or her full name and the reason for not reporting to work.
• If the voice mail messaging center is not accepting messages, the employee must then call the backup number listed below and leave the date and time that they called in. 
• A Foreman should call the main office at 871-3250 (University Park), as well as leave a voice mail at his or her shop so that the employees know that he or she will not be at work.
• The same procedures should be used to report lateness to work.
