Flex Time partnering
In support of the University's commitment to employee health and fitness, the University offers to partner with employees by providing a certain amount of flex time when an employee chooses to exercise at University facilities.
The University will provide paid flex time for 50 percent of work hours used to exercise at University facilities, up to a maximum of 1.5 hours per pay period.
For example, an employee with a one-hour lunch period works out at lunchtime for 1.5 hours, six days per pay period. Thus, the employee has used three hours of time, over and above lunchtime, to work out during the pay period. The University will provide paid flex time for 50 percent of those hours (or 1.5 hours) and the employee claims the remaining 50 percent (or 1.5 hours) as annual leave.
Flex time partnership is subject to limitations based on individual departmental schedules and staffing.
