DRAFT HANDBOOK — <strong>ARISE</strong> HIGH SCHOOL 1/2006<br />
Holidays - Recognized religious holidays may be taken off by an<br />
employee whose religion requires observance of the particular day.<br />
Employees must request the day off in advance by written notice to the<br />
employee's supervisor. The employee will be paid if the religious holiday is<br />
taken as an earned vacation day. The employee will not be paid if the<br />
religious holiday is taken as a personal leave of absence day.<br />
a holiday falls on Saturday, the preceding Friday will be celebrated as<br />
the holiday; if it falls on Sunday, the following Monday will be celebrated<br />
as the holiday. When Christmas falls on a Saturday, the Day before<br />
Christmas will be celebrated on Thursday. If Christmas falls on a Sunday<br />
or Monday, the day before Christmas will be celebrated on the preceding<br />
Friday.<br />
• Employees on any leave of absence do not earn holiday pay.<br />
These holidays may not be accrued by any employee.<br />
To be eligible for holiday pay, employees must be regularly scheduled to work on the day<br />
on which the holiday falls, and the employee must work his or her regularly scheduled<br />
working days immediately preceding and following the holiday.<br />
EMERGENCY CLOSING — INCLEMENT WEATHER, ETC.<br />
All staff that qualifies will be paid. When advance notice is given of possible inclement<br />
weather, employees are expected to take work home with them and work from home.<br />
JURY DUTY OR WITNESS LEAVE<br />
For all exempt employees, <strong>ARISE</strong> will pay for time off if you are called to serve on a jury.<br />
For all non-exempt employees, <strong>ARISE</strong> will pay for up to three (3) days if you are called to<br />
serve on a jury.<br />
VOTING TIME OFF<br />
Voting time off will be granted when an employee's work hours prevent the employee<br />
from getting to the polling place. Generally, polling times have been set so there is ample<br />
time for voting before or after work.<br />
If an employee does not have sufficient time outside of working hours to vote in an official<br />
state-sanctioned election, the employee may take off enough working time to vote. Such<br />
time off shall be taken at the beginning or the end of the regular working shift, whichever<br />
allows for more free time and the time taken off shall be combined with the voting time<br />
available outside of working hours to a maximum of two (2) hours combined.<br />
