University Dining Employee Handbook - 2020

If your absence is unavoidable and/or academically related and you have tried unsuccessfully to find a sub, it is advisable to discuss your situation with a supervisor. This should be done more than three working days prior to your absence. If less than three days are left and you do not have a sub you must talk to a manager about your situation. After a sub is located the sub card must be approved by a supervisor or full time staff member. The sub card is then filed in the office. Once you sign a card for subbing, you are responsible for that shift. LEAVE OF ABSENCE POLICY Leave of absences with advance notice for extenuating circumstances will be granted. Examples are: death in the family, hospitalization, pregnancy, etc. BREAK POLICY Use the “break card” for all 15 minute rest periods to record time away from your work station. Verification that break time did not exceed the allotted 15 minutes is done. Here are the results of breaks that are found to exceed the limit.
