Body
The College provides paid time off for regular, benefit-eligible employees engaged in certain short-term public service activities. For example, volunteer firefighters or emergency medical technicians who are members of a volunteer fire department may be paid when responding to an emergency call during regular working hours. An employee must request a public service leave commitment in advance, and each time the employee must leave the job, the supervisor must be informed and proof of hours worked must be provided. A supervisor may deny a request for a public service leave commitment if the time away from work becomes excessive or if the commitment impairs the employee’s effectiveness on the job.
