Inclement Weather Policy Reminder

We would like the opportunity to once again remind all employees that the County of Union offices do not close during major weather or storm events.
>

As is the County of Union’s practice, if anyone designated as non-essential personnel feels he/she cannot safely travel to work during these possible weather events, please consider using vacation or personal time to stay home.  If a State of  Emergency affecting the County of Union is declared during a weather event, non-essential employees will be permitted to use their available sick, vacation, personal or comp time for their absence as per resolution 2014-481. If no accrued leave time is available, non-essential County of Union employees may take the day without pay.

To ensure all County of Union employees can easily access information during such weather events, we will utilize all media channels below to ensure redundancy and availability:

  • UC-First Alert – www.ucfirstalert.org Register your e-mail address and mobile phone numbers to receive notifications.
  • County website – www.ucnj.org Alerts will be posted on the County’s home page.  The website can be viewed easily from your computer, mobile and tablet devices.
  • County’s Social Media Channels – Facebook | Twitter You have the option of downloading free apps provided by the social media companies to help you stay up-to-date.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
