In situations warranting an in-person response, on-call employees must arrive at the property to perform the work as soon as reasonably possible, but in no event shall an on-call employee arrive more than one (1) hour after receiving the initial call. On-Call employees must use good judgement in assessing the on-call situation, in responding to the situation, and in communicating with supervisors and managers regarding the situation. In instances where there is a significant risk of or actual serious damage to the property and/or where any person is seriously injured, or in any other instance deemed sufficiently serious in the on-call employee's reasonable judgement, the on-call employee must notify Emergency Services (911) when deemed necessary. The on-call employee must also contact his or her supervisor or manager immediately and not wait until the next regularly scheduled workday.

Emergency Call List:
1. No heat when the outside temperature is under 60 degrees or no air conditioning when the outside temperature is over 85 degrees
