Employees may request a specific option to be considered by their Supervisor. Alternative work arrangement options are not entitlements. They are exceptions to normal work schedules and may not be appropriate for certain departments or jobs, depending on departmental needs and job duties. The needs of the department are the highest consideration when determining how and if a particular alternative work arrangement can be accommodated. Termination of an alternative work arrangement option can occur at the employee's request or by withdrawal of approval by the University.
Adequate notice is to be given by either party wishing to terminate the arrangement.
Conditions which might lead to withdrawal of approval include unsatisfactory job performance, demonstrated adverse impact on departmental operations, and change in management or financial exigency. For exempt employees, flextime redefines the normal or expected work period. Flextime is normally scheduled around core hours as determined by the department. Variation to core hour scheduling is permissible. An employee's benefits are not affected by a flextime schedule.
