               VOTING

               All employees are encouraged to fulfill their civic responsibilities by voting. Since most states
               have extended absentee voting and/or the polls are generally open before and after normal working
               hours, time off should not be necessary.


               If polling hours do not permit time to vote either before or after working hours, adequate time off
               will  be  authorized  to  exercise  this  right.  Supervisors/managers  should  check  with  the  People
               Operations Department before allowing any time off for any employees under this provision.
