Procedure to request Holiday Cover

Procedure to request Holiday Cover and what it means for the volunteer/s

  1. MEG Support emails the dates of his annual leave (AL) to the MEG Operators (ideally sent a few weeks before AL is due to start), asking for Holiday Cover volunteers, with a link to GitHub detailing the remunerations available and probable solutions to follow if there are any issues while he is away.

  2. Once a MEG Operator has volunteered (ideally two MEG Operators - to help each other out as/if necessary), a slot, or slots, is/are booked on Calpendo to go over the procedures/solutions (who to telephone/the use of Remote Desktop Access, etc) or any questions posed by the volunteer/s.

  3. Once MEG Support has returned from AL and is happy that volunteers have performed HC duties as expected, CHBH Manager will arrange £32 in Amazon vouchers to be given to the volunteers/s, or 4 unfunded hours if requested instead.

    • If any overnight call out has required CHBH on-site attendance, rather than just remote assistance from home, then the relevant vouchers, or hours, will also be given/transferred over (£16 Amazon vouchers, or 2 unfunded hours, for every on-site visit), again after MEG Support has returned from AL and is happy the cover was provided correctly.
