Punctual and regular attendance is an essential responsibility of each employee at Hocking College.  Any tardiness or absence causes problems for fellow employees and supervisors.  When an employee is absent, others must perform the work, which disrupts normal day-to-day operations. 

Employees are expected to report to work as scheduled, on time and prepared to start work. Employees also are expected to remain at work for their entire work schedule. Late arrival, early departure, or other absences from scheduled hours are disruptive and must be avoided. The purpose of this policy is to promote the efficient operation of the college and minimize unscheduled absences.

Any employee who fails to report to work without notification to his or her supervisor for a period of three days or more will be considered to have voluntarily terminated their employment relationship.
