Summary

The Personnel Committee recommended amending the Employee Handbook so Emergency Leave is granted only after an employee has exhausted personal days. The motion passed April 7 and will move to district leadership for follow-up.

The Personnel Committee on April 7 recommended a change to the Employee Handbook's Emergency Leave language requiring employees to exhaust personal days before Emergency Leave will be granted. Committee member Jeff Stauffacher moved the change; Committee member Rick Fink seconded it, and the minutes note the motion "carried."

The motion is recorded in the minutes as: "to recommend Employee Handbook Emergency Leave language change to include the following: Personal days must be exhausted before Emergency Leave will be granted." The minutes do not specify whether the change would apply immediately or require additional approval by the full board, nor do they specify any exceptions or implementation details.

Next steps in the minutes indicate the committee recommended the change; the district administration or board would be responsible for formal adoption and any clarifying procedures.
