All P.P.D. employees are deemed essential and are expected to report for work as scheduled to fulfill assigned responsibilities regardless of weather or other external factors. Employees who do not report to work may be subject to disciplinary action.
Adequate staff is needed to perform assignments.
Employees who cannot report to work as scheduled during inclement weather conditions must notify their supervisor. These employees may be granted vacation or allowed to make up the hours if possible. If vacation is scheduled, no comp time is allowed. If employee already has 40 hours, no comp time is allowed. Employees who report to work as scheduled and assist with snow and ice removal and other essential duties will be given compensatory time off within six weeks of the time worked.
