How much weight should the supervisor give to childcare and carpool schedules or other personal employee preferences versus programmatic needs?
The manager and the employee must balance the quality of employee worklife with the institutional imperative to meet programmatic deliverables and fulfill operational requirements. Programmatic need, information access, and coverage must always be considered. As long as the employee and the supervisor can cover their programmatic responsibilities, then together they should consider personal needs in approving work schedules consistent with the criteria of the Alternative Work Schedule policies.
