When you plan to take time off, you should obtain a “Request for Time Off” form from an Administrative Support staff member. Fill it out in entirety and submit to your supervisor for approval. Upon approval forward the white copy to Hope Reese for attendance reporting purposes. You should then post your Google calendar accordingly. The time should be entered as a meeting on your own calendar so that others recognize a conflict. - Absenteeism Call-In Policy
