If the workplace is open for business, but the employee is unable to report to work because of a natural emergency (a natural emergency is defined as an Act of God, out of control of the employee or the Company), the employee can elect to do one of the following:

  1. Deduct the time missed from vacation or PTO, if available.
  2. Take the time as an unpaid excused absence, as long as the employee followed proper notice and call-in procedures. Failure to call in may result in an unexcused absence.

The Company will comply with all applicable State, Provincial and local laws pertaining to emergency closings and scheduling. To the extent this policy conflicts with any State, Provincial or local law, such law will supersede this policy. Contact Human Resources with any further questions.
