Arriving Late and Cancellations

If the day that the staff member needs off or will be coming in late is the first time he/she knows or communicates about it, then the following procedure should be followed. The goal is to get the information to the people who will be most affected, if not the entire staff.

Do enough of the below so that you know the whole staff will be aware of your absence/lateness. Of course, if you've suffered a concussion and therefore can't get to a phone or email, we'll understand. Just do what you can.

- Send an email to staff@freegeek.org - Phone the receptionist 503.232.9350 - Try to make phone contact with a staff member by way of his/her cell phone

If phone contact is made with a non-absent staff member, the non-absentee must send an email to the staff list (if this hasn't already been done) _and_ tell other staff at Free Geek, especially the receptionist, as soon as possible.
