Beginning Friday, June 5 and ending September 5, summer hours as described in the staff handbook go into effect. Summer hours are designed to help employees create lengthened weekends by allowing them to work shortened lunch breaks equal to 30 minutes Monday through Friday to free up 2.5 hours on Friday afternoon. If you have any questions about how this applies to your specific department or schedule, please review the staff handbook and talk to your manager or reach out to the HR department.
