Flexible Work Pilot Program
The Flex Work Pilot Program is in place through July 29, 2022. Any employee seeking some flexibility to work from home must submit a Flexible Work Agreement (FWA) form to their supervisor for approval. Read full text of the policy -- Flexible Work Policy Pilot Program.
Self-Monitoring
Employees are asked to do their part by monitoring for any symptoms of COVID-19, taking
their temperature frequently, and not coming to campus if they are sick or have a
temperature over 100 degrees.
Personal Safety Protocols
When working on campus, please adhere to the personal safety protocols outlined here.
Masks
Masks are recommended but not required. We advise all members of our community to
have a mask ready, as an act of charity, in the event they are in close contact with
others who request them to wear one.
Feeling Sick?
Employees are expected to call in sick if they are experiencing COVID-19-related symptoms
at home, or to leave work after notifying their supervisor if they start to feel ill
at work. All full and part-time faculty and staff should report any COVID-19-related
symptoms on the Employee Reporting form found in the Employee COVID-19 procedure. You will be contacted by someone in the Office of Human Resources upon submission
of the Employee Reporting Form. Employees with COVID-19-related symptoms should seek
COVID testing through their own doctor or off-site testing center (not the UD Health
Clinic).
