IMPORTANT! Are you familiar with the absence request and reporting procedures?

Please read the following — and if you are not sure about how to proceed, ask your supervisor or contact Human Resources!

I. Planned Absences (personal, vacation, professional, FMLA, etc.):

1. Submit your absence request through Frontline at least 36 hours before the absence — and 30 days in advance for planned leave. Access Frontline online at Google Workspace. Scroll down and find Frontline.
2. Phone in notice of your absence to your immediate supervisor.

Important Notes:

• Reasonably anticipated Family Medical Leave requires 30 days notice.
• One of the six personal leave days may be used for personal reasons without prior approval.

II. Unexpected Absences (sick, bereavement, etc.):

1. Report to Frontline before 5:00 a.m., or as soon as you know. Report online using the directions above or call 1-800-714-3076. Click here for instructions.
2. Phone in notice of your absence to your immediate supervisor.

Important Notes:

• Physician's release to return required for three or more days sick leave.
• Physician's certificate may be required as evidence of illness.
• After the 5th day of absence, BASIC will mail Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) to employee.
• Employee must respond to BASIC notice to qualify absence under FMLA.
