Use of Leave Civil Air Patrol leave is capped at 15 workdays per calendar year. However, this cap does not apply when responding to a state or nationally declared emergency in Missouri. You will not lose any leave, or any other rights or benefits, to which you would have otherwise been entitled while on Civil Air Patrol leave. The Company may request that you be excused from responding to a specific mission, which your supervising wing commander must grant. Notice Provide as much notice as possible of your intent to take leave. The Company may ask you to provide documentation verifying your Civil Air Patrol service. Retaliation The Company will not retaliate or discriminate against employees who request or take leave in accordance with this policy. Victim and Witness Leave CREA, LLC realizes that, on occasion, you may have an obligation to participate in criminal legal proceedings either as a witness or because you, or a close family member, was victimized by a criminal act. The Company provides unpaid leave to attend those proceedings under circumstances described below. If you are required to attend a criminal proceeding either as a witness or as a crime victim (or a close family member of a crime victim), you must inform your manager as soon as possible to make scheduling arrangements. The Company reserves the right to require employees to provide proof of the need to attend the criminal proceedings to the extent authorized by law. Leave under this policy is unpaid; however, exempt employees may receive pay as required by applicable law. You may opt to use PTO for any unpaid leave. You are expected to return to work if you are excused from the criminal proceedings during regular working hours or released from the criminal proceeding earlier than expected. This policy does not apply to employees seeking leave because they have committed or are alleged to have committed a criminal act. The Company will not retaliate against employees who request or take leave in accordance with this policy. Voting Leave If your work schedule prevents you from having three consecutive hours of time off work when voting polls are open, upon prior notice to CREA, LLC, you may take up to three hours off work for the purpose of voting. The timing of your leave will be determined by your manager. Wage and Hour Policies Pay Period At CREA, LLC, the standard pay period is semi-monthly for all employees. Pay dates are the 15th and last day of the month. If a pay date falls on a holiday, you will be paid on the preceding workday. If a pay date falls on a Saturday or Sunday, you will be paid on the preceding Friday. Special provisions may be required from time to time if holidays fall on pay dates. Check with your manager if this type of date arises. If you are paid by commission, refer to your commission agreement.
