Shift Covers
If you are unable to work a shift please attempt to trade shifts with another peer associate. All peer associates' emails are on the contact list in this wiki. It is important that you trade shifts rather than cover another person's shift so that we can insure you fulfill your work study award amount. Once someone has agreed to cover, please send out another email to your colleagues letting them know that the shift is no longer available. At this point, it please email Tristen at slc.peers@austin.utexas.edu about the swap so that we are not expecting you.
Procedures for Calling in Sick
If you wake up sick please do not come into work. Bugs spread quickly! If you have an early shift, please email (slc.peers@austin.utexas.edu) or call Tristen. Her cell phone number is on the contact page. Feel free to call or text her on it! If you cannot get a hold of her, call Maria; and if you cannot get a hold of Maria, call Grace. If you have a shift later in the day, please send out an email to your colleagues to see if someone can cover the shift. You can worry about swapping hours with them later. If you find someone to take your shift, please follow the procedures outlined above. If you do not find someone to cover your shift please let Tristen know in advance! It is a good idea to CC us in the original email to the other peer associates so that we know a lapse in coverage is possible. It is important that we know with notice that your shift will not be covered especially if you work after 5:00PM!
Running Late
We know that sometimes traffic gets the best of you. If you are running late, please let Tristen know.
