PAP.5.5.140 Inclement Weather

(a) In the event of inclement weather conditions, the Tribal Governing Board and Health Director will gather information on existing and anticipated weather and road conditions from the Transportation Directors and local TV broadcasts.

(b) The Health Director will contact Tribal Governing Board members to determine if LCO-CHC offices will open as usual, will be closed, or will have a later opening time.

(c) By 6:30 am, the Health Director or designee will contact local radio stations (WOJB, WRLS, WHSM) if the LCO-CHC offices will be closed or opening later than normal. If there are no announcements on the local radio stations, then the LCO-CHC offices will be open as usual.

(d) When LCO-CHC offices are open, employees that would prefer to not drive during inclement weather conditions must contact their supervisor to obtain the approval to utilize accrued PTO. However, employees are to make every reasonable effort to come to work, especially employees with meetings or appointments scheduled.
