Ìý Ìý Dear supervisors, managers, and HRLs,Ìý
Ìý Ìý As the 2024 Election nears, we encourage all CU Boulder employees to vote. Voting gives citizens the ability to make an impact both locally and nationally.ÌýHere are a few reminders and resources toÌýguide you on Tuesday,ÌýNovember 5.Ìý
- The Department of Human Resources strongly encourages managers and supervisors to provide flexibility in scheduling and granting leave for employees who may need to vote on Election Day on Tuesday, Nov. 5 before 7 p.m.
- How, where, and when to vote on campus.Ìý
- Most voting centers are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Election Day but double-check the times. Employees are encouraged to vote before or after scheduled work hours or participate via mail-in ballot. If employees have not chosen to vote by mail-in ballot or voted early, we recommend that they talk to their supervisor before Election Day to understand how to schedule time to vote.
- As a reminder, babyÖ±²¥app State Board Rules assert that classified employees must be granted when they do not have three hours of unscheduled work time during voting hours. These three hours do not have to be consecutive (e.g. employees who work from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. are not automatically eligible for this leave because they may vote between 7-8 a.m. or 5-7 p.m.).
- Both university staff and classified employees may also use vacation time to vote if they need to do so during work hours.
