Please see this link for the updated policy. Below information is for historical purposes only.
This note clarifies CIRES’ inclement weather policy, following recent policy changes from CU Boulder (here) and NOAA/DOC. Briefly: If you normally work at the NOAA labs, please follow your laboratory/center’s closure and telework policy. If you normally work on CU Boulder campus, please follow CU Boulder’s policy.
Currently, this means most NOAA-based people who are approved to work remotely are expected to work through inclement weather closures (whether called by NOAA or CU Boulder or both).
By contrast, CU-Boulder-based CIRES people follow the campus closure policy: Administrative leave is granted to any regular employee for scheduled work hours during the period of closure; though certain remote meetings may still need to take place—check with your supervisor for guidance.If you have questions, or if this protocol creates a personal hardship, please reach out to CIREShr@colorado.edu.
