Flextime
Flextime is an arrangement that may include a consistent daily schedule with individualized
starting and ending times that are the same throughout the week or a varying daily schedule that
starts or ends at different times each day. This is a system wherein employees choose their
starting and departure times from a range of available hours. These periods are usually at either
the start or end of a core time during which most of JCRC-NY’s organizational activity takes place. Full time employment is 35 hours and Flextime does not alter the total number of hours or days worked in a week.
Telecommuting
Telecommuting is a work arrangement (which may be temporary) in which employees carry out some of their assigned duties at home or at another location. Job characteristics of a position suited for telecommuting typically require minimum supervision and minimum face-to-face contact. Supervisors are responsible for determining in advance which assignments or tasks are appropriate for telecommuting. Telecommuting employees are responsible for maintaining availability, levels of productivity and quality of work at the expected standard while telecommuting. Inadequate availability, reduced work production and/or quality may be cause for modifications or termination of an employee’s participation in telecommuting.
Flexible Reduced Schedules
Such an option involves fewer hours than full-time and must have a reasonably predictable schedule. These arrangements will affect salary and could terminate or affect some benefits, which will need to be adjusted.
1. Part Time – A part-time option means working fewer than 35 hours per week.
2. Gradual Return to Work – This provides an employee the opportunity to gradually begin working during a Family Care or Disability Leave, by working part-time and easing back in. This is not to extend any leave, but rather enable an employee and JCRC-NY to work out a balance of needs and capacity.
3. Partial Retirement – This allows employees nearing retirement to continue working on a
part-time basis, with no established end date.
