Human Resources
Dear Colleagues,
In continuation of Syracuse University’s Flexible Work and
Sustainability Initiative, Chancellor Cantor has approved “Green Days” for the
2009-2010 fiscal year. Accordingly, the University
will be operating under its Green Days format for the Winter Break period from
December 24 through January 3. In addition to the regular University holidays
of December 24, 25 and 31 and January 1, the following days have been
designated as paid “Green Days”: December 28, 29 and 30.
The schedule, piloted in 2008, promotes sustainability and
energy conservation by reducing University-wide energy use and employee
commuting during the break. The Office of Human Resources has coordinated a
schedule of services and offices that will be available during this break
period. Complete details are available to the University community on the HR web site and the University’s Winter Break/Green Days site http://sunews.syr.edu/winterbreak/index.html.
The web sites will continue to be updated in the coming months as the Green
Days period approaches.
This announcement will be sent to all faculty
and staff via an e-mail “blast” (attached) tomorrow, June 26. If you have
any questions about the winter break closure, please contact me at nbstrode@syr.edu, ext-4224.
