Whilst the Group is committed to protecting your health
and safety, we must also ensure that our business is not
unduly disrupted by external factors. Normally, where
you cannot attend work because of the weather you may
be required or permitted to:

• Work from home

• Make up the time at a later date; or

• Take any absence from work as holiday or unpaid leave
We realise that every individual may have different
circumstances and we may need to base a decision on
your individual circumstances.

Please refer to adverse weather policy HRP039

Let us know where you are
Any absence other than planned absence will be treated
by the Group as unauthorised. Unauthorised absence
WE REALISE includes, but is not limited to, absence from your place of

work for an unaccountable length of time; you not being
THAT EVERY contactable for an unaccountable length of time; you being
unavailable for your normal working hours without an
acceptable reason. Unauthorised absence maybe subject
to disciplinary action.
