Official Agency Hours and Summer Flex Hours

Official Agency Hours The official agency hours are 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Supervisors may schedule staff outside of these hours to meet the unique coverage needs of each work area. 

Flexible Scheduling 
Employees will be allowed to request reconsideration of their scheduled hours on the first day of March, June, September and December. Supervisors shall be responsible to ensure that modified schedules will not result in reduction in services to clients. 

In regional offices, office hours are set by the Regional Directors based on the needs of the region. Regional Directors will schedule staff accordingly and will communicate their office hours to their districts, their staff and the Agency receptionist. Staff members should discuss any questions about flex hours with their supervisor. 

Summer Flex Hours 
Summer flex hours are available this summer from Monday, June 9, 2014 to Friday, August 8, 2014, with regular scheduling resuming on Monday, August 11, 2014. During this period, supervisors may approve summer flex hours between 7:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. With supervisor approval, the 60-minute lunch break may be shortened to 30 minutes. 

When considering approval of summer flex hours, priority will be placed on coverage of work functions over staff preference. Therefore, there may be some variation of individual schedules within or across workgroups. Staff members should discuss any questions about summer flex hours with their supervisor.
