We do not have level emergencies in Trumbull. All offices remain open unless the Commissioners close the buildings. If the decision is made to close, employees are paid as though they worked. Should an employee not report to work while the offices are open, they can use their personal/vacation/comp time. Here’s our policy for vacation and sick time in such cases: SECTION 4.17 OFFICE CLOSURES In the event County offices are closed due to inclement weather or other unforeseen phenomenon, the following policy will be used to address the charging/reimbursing of employees who used sick or vacation leave prior to the announcement of closure. If an employee reported off sick prior to the closing, those hours will still be deducted from their sick leave bank. If an employee had a scheduled personal/vacation day, those hours will not be charged against their account. Thanks.

Muskingum County's policy currently indicates that for Level 1 and 2 Emergencies, offices will remain open and employees are expected to report to work. If an employee doesn't report to work, they will use vacation, personal, or compensatory time or take the day/time as unpaid. Level 3 Emergencies the offices are closed and employees will be paid. On January 12th, some of our county offices closed early due to the anticipated weather conditions but we were not under any Level Emergencies at the time of closure. Commissioners made the decision to pay employees for the time that they would have been scheduled to work had the office not closed. I would appreciate feedback and/or copies of policies to review. Thanks everyone! Pam Davis Muskingum County Human Resources County Courthouse 401 Main Street Zanesville, OH 43701 Phone: 740-588-4371
