Occasional Work from Home

Occasional “work from home” arrangements may be approved for a variety of circumstances. Examples include, but not limited to, inclement weather, special projects, business travel, or waiting for repair or internet services. These arrangements are approved by the managing supervisor on an as-needed basis only, with no expectation of ongoing continuance.

Other informal, short-term arrangements may be made for employees on family or medical leave to the extent practical for the employee and the organization and with the consent of the employee’s health care provider, if appropriate.

All informal, occasional telework arrangements are made on a case-by-case basis, focusing first on the operational needs of the department and campus. As this arrangement is informal, there is not a formal process to request the occasional, sporadic, as needed, ad-hoc arrangement.

Information regarding for formal, long-term arrangements may be found within the “Flexible Work Location” policy.
