What do other libraries do regarding Snow Days and hourly employee pay? If they are scheduled to work and the library closes due to snow, do they get paid?
-
Other acts of God, so to speak, like power outages, etc... Do the hourly employees get paid for their regularly scheduled time?
-
Jury Duty- our current policy states the following:
If a salaried employee is called for Jury Duty, the employee's regular pay shall be maintained by the library for a period of, but not to exceed 5 working days. Salaried employees are required to reimburse the library for the jury pay received (Excluding
travel reimbursements) while regular pay is maintained. Jury duty beyond 5 days required a leave of absence without pay. Hourly employees will not receive compensation from the library for jury duty.
So, my question is how do other libraries treat jury duty and employee pay? Current jury duty pay in the state is a measly $30 a day for the first 5 days and $45 afterwards. Since my hourly employees make more than $15 an hour, they will be losing money. Doesn't
seem fair.
