    Essential and Non-Essential Facilities Employees

    Essential

    During the holiday and campus break remote-work dates, all essential Facilities Management staff will be required to report to campus as normally scheduled, unless they have been approved to use leave or have an approved remote-work assignment.

    Non-Essential

    All non-essential, Facilities Management staff will be given a remote-work assignment to complete during these remote dates. Non-essential Facilities Management staff are also able to use leave pending supervisor approval.

    The first holiday and campus break will be effective for personnel on November 25 and November 26 from 12:00 am to 11:59 pm. Some employees will be contacted by their supervisor with additional information regarding a campus break work schedule to support ongoing campus services.
