Aloha 东精影业<\/abbr> employees,<\/p>\n

The current University of Hawaiʻi<\/span> COVID-19 Telework Policy has been extended through January 31, 2022. Although initially announced that the policy would expire on December 31, it will now remain in place for an additional month to allow more time for the administration to evaluate voluntary telework requests under the new 东精影业<\/abbr> Telework Policy & Guidelines announced December 13<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The new 东精影业<\/abbr> Telework Policy & Guidelines<\/a> will take effect as scheduled on January 3, 2022, along with the 2022 Employee COVID-19 Mandatory Vaccination Policy<\/a> and the 2022 COVID-19 Mandatory Vaccination for Students Policy<\/a>. While the administration is reviewing telework requests, with decisions anticipated in January, all employees are expected to be in compliance with the 2022 mandatory vaccination policy starting January 3.<\/p>\n

The 东精影业<\/abbr> Telework Policy & Guidelines are intended to apply to all 东精影业<\/abbr> employees; however, there are a few exceptions. At this time, 东精影业<\/abbr> employees in bargain units (BU<\/abbr>s) 2, 3, 4 and 9 fall under the State of Hawaiʻi<\/span>\u2019s memorandum of understanding<\/a> (MOU<\/abbr>) between the State and HGEA<\/abbr> entered into on June 15, 2010. If you are in one of these BU<\/abbr>s and want to request telework, the required documentation can be found in the State of Hawaiʻi<\/span> Telework Program Guidelines<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Additionally, there are some types of work that 东精影业<\/abbr> recognizes may not be suitable for teleworking, such as work more typically performed by our BU<\/abbr> 1 employees.<\/p>\n

东精影业<\/abbr> employees can review the policy and FAQ<\/abbr>s on the Office of Human Resources website:<\/p>\n
