Attendance and Punctuality

All employees have the responsibility to be regularly and dependably available for work. Excessive absenteeism adversely affects productivity, disrupts normal operating effectiveness and overburdens other employees who must cover for the employee who is absent. Excessive tardiness or absenteeism will result in disciplinary action, up to and including termination.

Except in emergencies, employees are required to report absences or tardiness in advance to their supervisor and the front desk prior to the beginning of the work day. The employee should, wherever possible, provide their supervisor with an estimated time and/or date for return to work. In the event your supervisor is unavailable, please contact the Office Manager.
