\n

Because of the nature of work conducted at UNMC and its primary clinical partner, Nebraska Medicine, the medical center campus does not close during extreme weather.\u00a0Even so, UNMC leaders are aware of the risks posed by adverse weather conditions and encourage all faculty, staff and students to exercise caution and consider their personal safety when making weather-related decisions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During extreme weather, managers are encouraged to exercise business continuity plans and temporarily increase remote work options, as long as business functions can be covered. Employees who miss work because of weather must use vacation or floating holiday time to account for these absences, according to the UNMC Work Schedules Policy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If students or employees feel they cannot safely get to campus,<\/strong>\u00a0they are asked to notify their supervisor or their supervising faculty members as soon as possible.\u00a0In the event of inclement weather, classes for the UNMC College of Public Health are cancelled if the University of Nebraska at Omaha is closed. This impacts only on-campus COPH classes; online classes continue as scheduled.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
