What is your company's policy on taking time off for school tours? Not college, but taking a half day here and a late morning there. [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

A half day/morning off is NBD, no one really tracks that. But if there's something I need to get done or a deadline I might work later just to make sure I'm getting everything done. [ Reply | More

I have all flexibility I need. But I also make 20% less than I could, my job is a little boring, and I have to be willing to work weekends and vacations and evenings if necessary. It doesn’t happen all that often but it always could. [ Reply | More

No big deal, since everyone goes through the process. Public probably less invasive, because the privates wanted multiple visits, by both parents, at multiple times of day. Public doesn't care about who brings the kid. [ Reply | More

There's no special policy for school tours. You are allowed a certain amount of time off and you use it for whatever you need. That said, many companies are flexible about coming in late/leaving early if you make up the time and don't miss deadlines. Every company is different. [ Reply | More

Late morning wouldn't be tracked so as long as it was rare, it would be fine. If you are going to be out half a day, you are supposed to note it in the vacation system but most people don't seem to actually use it. I'd probably just take a vacation day if I was going to be gone half the day anyway. [ Reply | More
