 Subject: MASSMAIL - More Information on Severe Weather Guidelines

Because of the severe weather conditions, the University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign canceled classes today. In response to questions from
employees regarding reporting to work today, the following guidelines apply.

Non-essential employees who reported for duty this morning will be paid for
their entire shift, even if their supervisor sent/sends them home.

Non-essential employees who did not report for duty this morning may use
accrued benefits for their shift today (e.g., vacation, floating holiday,
comp time) or, if they were ill, sick leave.

Non-essential employees who do not have any accrued benefits may take an
excused leave with no pay today. 

All employees are responsible for contacting their departments for
instructions.  It is each unit's responsibility to determine essential and
non-essential personnel.

A decision regarding classes and operations for tomorrow, February 14th
will be made later today and shared with the media and posted on the
uiuc.edu website.
