Principal Investigators are responsible to notify their RCUH employees whether or not to report to work.
If circumstances prevent the employees from reporting to their normal workplace, Principal Investigators will be responsible to determine which employees are allowed to work at an alternative work site. If no alternative work or workplace is available, employees may be placed on vacation status (if available) or leave without pay status.
For more details, please refer to RCUH Policy #3.262 – RCUH Work Schedule, Work Week and Work Hours: Memo – Unforeseen Disruption in Work Schedule.
2. EARLY TIMESHEET SUBMISSION:
Your RCUH timesheets are available NOW through 12:00 noon on August 1, 2013. We urge all projects to submit their online timesheets as soon as possible in the event of power failures, downed internet connections and other unforeseen circumstances.
Should you have any questions regarding the submission of your timesheets, please contact [email protected].
