Reminder: Friday, May 28, Last Day to Sign up for 2021 Summer Flex Schedule

The 2021 Summer Flex Schedule will begin on Monday, June 7, 2021, and end on Saturday, August 7, 2021. Full-time employees will have the option of working one of the following flexible work schedules:

1. Four 10-hour days with one flex day
2. Four 9-hour days and one 4-hour day with four hours of flex one day

Please note: Employees are expected to work regular hours during a holiday week, e.g., Juneteenth and July 4.

Employee Responsibilities/Expectations

• Employees must work a total of 40 hours each work week.
• Non-exempt employees are expected to submit time in accordance with the approved flex schedule, as non-exempt employees are paid for the hours worked.
• Exempt employees are responsible for completing work responsibilities, regardless of flex schedule, as exempt employees are paid for the work performed.
• Any leave submitted while on a flex schedule needs to reflect the hours missed while flexing schedule (example:  If you work four 10-hour days, M-Th and you take leave on Monday, then you will submit 10 hours of leave).
• Employees are expected to coordinate with supervisor, so that flex day is established for the duration of the semester (example:  If Wednesday is your chosen and approved flex day, you need to maintain this through the duration of the semester).

Supervisor Responsibilities/Expectations

• Supervisors are responsible for assuring that business needs are met.
• Supervisors are responsible for managing staffing needs to ensure that college services are available to meet the needs of the College and department.
• Supervisors are expected to manage work performance of staff.
• To the extent possible, supervisors are expected to permit flex scheduling for all interested full-time employees in support of this initiative to provide some balance of work and life for our workforce.

In order to record the flex work schedules in HRMS, Human Resources will need to load the temporary flex schedule for each employee. Employees who have been approved to participate in the flex work schedule must complete the Summer Flex 2021 form, obtain approval from the supervisor and appropriate Administrative Council member, and submit the completed form to Human Resources at dataops@nvcc.edu. Forms must be received in Human Resources by COB on Friday, May 28, 2021. (If you need accommodations to access this form, please contact your supervisor or ada@nvcc.edu.)

Every effort will be made to offer this scheduling option to those employees who are eligible and interested. If flex scheduling interferes with business needs, adjustments to the flex schedule may be necessary. In all instances, we encourage supervisors to apply flex scheduling in a fair, objective manner.
