Weekly/Hourly Staff Schedule

You should notify our Program Assistant of all substitution plans and missed shifts as early as possible. You must use the current schedule and contact sheet to exhaust ALL POSSIBLE options for adequate substitution of missed shifts. You can request substitutions by posting to the discussion board, emailing and calling specific people who are not already working, or putting the request on the bulletin board in the UWC. All substitution arrangements should be finalized by you in the substitution notebook located in the reception area. When possible, please notify the consultants that you work with of any planned absences or substitutions.
