Frequently Asked Questions: Miscellaneous
If I am sick the day prior to a severe weather day, is the severe weather
day considered

scheduled absence.
If an employee returns to Duke within one year of layoff, what happens to
Carry-Over Bank (COB)?

If an employee works greater than one-half of their
shift,
then goes home sick, how do we deduct less than 4 hours?
Current policy states that exempt employees cannot deduct less than 4 hours
from their PTO banks. Exempt employees are expected to work the required hours
based upon their full-time equivalent (at
home, additional time or whatever it takes to accomplish the work). If a pattern
or trend is identified, the manager can address this as attendance or
performance issue.
What banks are available to the estate at time of employees death?
Short-Term Bank (STB) hours are paid to the estate at 100%.
How does PTO work with short term disability, long term disability, and
Workers' Compensation? In the event of disability or Workers'
Compensation, you may supplement the disability and workers' compensation with

over bank.
