It’s almost summertime and the Summer Flextime Program at SterlingRisk is back!!! The Summer Flextime Program is a work schedule that allows employees to leave at 1pm (on six Fridays during the designated twelve-week program) every other Friday for six designated weeks. The week of July 4th is not an eligible flex work week as we are closed Friday, July 3rd.
From Monday thru Thursday of their Flex-Friday week, each employee that chooses to participate, will add ½ hour to their work day and take a daily abbreviated ½ hour lunch. “Banking” this time from Monday thru Thursday will allow that employee to leave at 1:00pm on Friday.
A typical summer flextime arrangement may be:
· Monday through Thursday 8:30 – 5:00 with a half hour abbreviated lunch each of the four days worked;
· Or Monday through Thursday 9:00 – 5:30 with a half hour abbreviated lunch each of the four days worked.
· On the Friday during the week in which the summer flextime is worked, you will work from 9:00 – 1:00, and may leave at 1:00 pm (“summer half day”).
This schedule must be approved by your Manager. This will be a team approach, so team members that have been identified to be backups for each other, may not both select the same week to exercise their flextime. In other words, team members must cover for each other, so that our clients continued to be serviced.
Managers will be coordinating this schedule with their team in a way that results in six summer half days for each team member during the twelve week period of June 5h through August 28th. Again, this allows each team member the opportunity for six summer half days.
Do’s
· Communicate your interest to your Manager in participating in this pilot program.
· If you are participating in the program, make sure your backup is indicated on your out of office (both internally and externally) and voice mail on your summer half day.
· Commit to the set six summer full Fridays.
· Have fun and utilize this time to enjoy the summer!
Don’ts
You cannot take a summer half day on a week you have PTO planned.
If you use an unplanned PTO the week of your scheduled summer half day, you will need to reschedule your summer half day.
You cannot combine a ½ day PTO and summer half day together for a full day off.
Don’t worry, if there is a client need and you are unable to take your scheduled summer half day, your Manager will work with you and a new summer half day will be assigned.
Keep showing your Values colors!
