Volunteer Leave Now an Option in Leave Online System

As a reminder, all agency staff members are granted four hours of volunteer time per fiscal year (July 1-June 30) to volunteer their time to serve their communities. 

This year, we are asking staff to submit leave through the Leave Online system as you would for any other leave. This new procedure will hopefully give us a better idea of how many staff members are using the volunteer time off, as well as give supervisors the ability to approve/deny the time off request as they would any other leave. 

If you don’t know where to start when it comes to volunteering, you can always check out the Iowa Commission on Volunteer Service for opportunities and events that need help in your area. We love to see you serving our communities – please consider volunteering your time for others!
