Inclement Weather or Emergency Conditions Clause Samples

The "Inclement Weather or Emergency Conditions" clause defines how contractual obligations are affected when unforeseen adverse weather or emergency situations occur. Typically, this clause allows for extensions of deadlines or temporary suspension of work if conditions such as severe storms, floods, or other emergencies make performance unsafe or impossible. Its core function is to allocate risk and provide flexibility, ensuring that parties are not penalized for delays caused by circumstances beyond their control.
Inclement Weather or Emergency Conditions. Local inclement weather and emergency condition policies are established at the Activity level. All employees should be advised of such policies through locally negotiated notification procedures. The use of administrative leave may be appropriate for regular employees in situations in which a head of an Activity uses his or her authority to close all or part of an Activity due to inclement weather or emergency conditions. This authority is intended for short periods of time, generally not exceeding three (3) consecutive work days, and is not intended to cover extended periods of interrupted or suspended operations that can be anticipated sufficiently in advance.

Inclement Weather or Emergency Conditions. A. Management agrees that when, in its judgment it becomes necessary to close any duty station because of inclement weather or any other emergency condition and to grant administrative leave, reasonable efforts will be made to inform all affected bargaining unit employees by private or public media. B. If an emergency condition exists which prevents a bargaining unit employee from getting to work but the duty station is not closed, Management will adopt a liberal annual leave policy. C. When a duty station is open, but inclement weather or other emergency condition affecting travel prevents a bargaining unit employee from getting to work on time, the employee's tardiness may be excused by the supervisor without charge to leave when it can be determined that the employee made every effort to get to work on time. The criteria for making such a determination are: the distance between the employee's residence and place of work; the modes of transportation available; the efforts made by the employee to get to work; and the success of other employees traveling under similar circumstances in getting to work on time.
