Work from Home Guidelines
|
|
|
|
|
The College understands that these are difficult and uncertain times and require flexibility. This communication contains important information for employees regarding the move to have the majority of employees working from home March 23 through April 17, 2020. |
|
|
As always, our priority remains the health and safety of our students, faculty and staff. |
|
|
|
- During the Work from Home period (March 23-April 17, 2020), all employees – full-time and part-time – who receive a regular paycheck will continue to be paid for their regularly scheduled hours. The College has designated a limited number of individuals as essential onsite employees – those employees have been notified by their supervisor about when and if they need to report to a physical work location.
- All other employees should be working from home, and your supervisors will be in touch about specific work assignments and expectations.
- Individuals who need to come to campus to collect items to be able to work from home may do so March 23 and March 24 from 8 a.m.-6 p.m. and March 25 from 8 a.m.-noon. Individuals should only come to campus to collect items and should return home after doing so. Employees should coordinate with their immediate supervisor when they are planning to come to the campus.
- Employees who have not been designated as essential onsite employees, but who need to go onsite briefly after March 25, 2020, should get approval from one of the following designated employees:
- Police leadership (Dir. Adkins, Capt.Talley)
- Campus Presidents for Academic Affairs employees
- Dennis Dill for Facilities employees
- Student Affairs Vice Presidents for Student Affairs Employees
- Stacey Edwards for the Harrison Center
- Julie Loyet for South County
- Paul Zinck, vice chancellor, finance and administration
- Dr. Andrew Langrehr, vice chancellor, academic affairs
- Dr. Christine Davis, vice chancellor, student affairs
- Keith Hacke, chief information officer
- Dr. Jeff L. Pittman, chancellor
- Robin Phillips, associate vice chancellor, human resources

Working from home is a new experience for many employees, and employees should keep the following parameters in mind:
|
|
- Employees working from home must be reachable during working hours; supervisors are expected to check in with WFH employees on a regular basis.
- College policies and administrative procedures continue to apply. For example - non-exempt employees working from home must obtain approval from their supervisor in advance, prior to performing any overtime.
- Many employees have access to confidential information, and must ensure that all College data, software, equipment and supplies must be properly protected and secured.
- When an employee is assigned to WFH is not available to work, they are required to use personal and/or vacation leave.
|
|
|
Employees who are diagnosed with COVID-19 or are exposed to someone who has been diagnosed should notify their supervisor so that time is recorded related to COVID-19. |
|
|
In the spirit of not requiring employees to use regularly accrued sick time or other paid time off, the Board and the College are considering additional, special leave related to COVID-19 at the Board meeting on March 23. The College will update information regarding leave as soon as possible. |
|
|
This situation is incredibly fluid and the College will continue to evaluate and provide updates to employees as more information is available. |
|
|
This situation is extremely challenging and presents unique circumstances. We know employees have many questions, and we ask for your patience as we work to address different situations and determine how best to support our students, faculty and staff. |
|
|
We appreciate everything you do. Please know that our primary concern continues to be the health and well-being of our community. |
