Calling Out Sick. Unplanned interruptions of work require the employee to notify their supervisor (or other designated individual) at least two (2) hours in advance of the start of their shift. When circumstances prevent an employee from providing proper notice, employees will provide notice as soon as practicable. In all cases, whether and when an employee can practicably provide notice depends upon the individual facts and circumstances of the situation. Requests to use PTO to cover absences due to health- related reasons defined in ORS 653.616 will not be denied. Requests to use PTO for other purposes shall not be unreasonably denied. Inability to anticipate census and staffing needs shall not be grounds for denial of such requests, but known staffing shortfalls may be taken into consideration. Bargaining Unit Employees shall not be required to find their own replacements when they call out sick. If an Employee Leave Request Form was not completed before an employee’s leave, then it must be completed within three (3) days of returning to work.
